In this article, we will introduce the realm of CAT tools, exploring their capabilities, benefits, and the role they play in bridging linguistic gaps and enabling effective communication on a global scale. Whether you’re a translator, a project manager, or simply curious about the world of language technology, read on to discover how CAT software can help you with translation and localization.
We often emphasize the importance of providing context for translators. The more context you provide, the better translation quality you can get. This is especially important when it comes to web or mobile applications. Since texts for app translation are typically short, context would help translators decide which translation variant should be used.
With Crowdin, you can provide translation context in multiple ways. It can either be a textual context for every key or an in-context preview to let translators browse the web app while translating. A manager in a Crowdin project can add screenshots, so translators can see exactly how the key would be used in the app. Let’s stop on the screenshots, they are great but might be hard to add for every key and maintain them relevant as your project evolves.
One of our customers – Bounce, recently implemented a great solution for managing project screenshots. The amount of screenshots they manage is huge! Bounce project has 8000 screenshots in Crowdin, covering a big part of their product – a mobile app for luggage storage and pickup and their email templates. These screenshots are being updated as the product evolves. No manual work, the whole process is automated. How can that be possible? Let’s figure it out.
It’s fascinating to watch how LLMs are taking over the translation industry. In the last few months, we’ve seen many great applications of how machines can assist and perform translation tasks.

Today, we’re very excited to announce immediate access to the latest version of Crowdin AI with the fine-tuning feature! A way to feed TM’s and glossaries of any size before asking the LLM to translate your content.

The first experiments with machine translation began in the 1950s. At that time, the technology was more like an automated dictionary.
Machine translation became more useful in the 90s when statistical machine translation was introduced. However, the translation quality was still far from human translation.
In 2010, when Google introduced Neural Machine Translation, things changed. Machine translation became a useful tool, which in many cases, influenced both the work of professional translators and clients’ budgets.
Now, AI is actively searching for its place within all industries, and localization is no exception. Let’s see how you can run AI pre-translation and the potential of AI in localization.
