Best engine evaluations 

Upload a sample of your translation memory to the Custom.MT Console and select the machine translation providers you would like to evaluate. Custom.MT will clean up your translation memory and translate the source with each selected MT engine, then it will compare your human translation to each machine translation. 

You will receive BLEU and COMET scores as well as Word-Error Rates (WER) for each model in the test and will know within minutes which MT engine works best for your content and style. 

Custom Tag handling pipelines 

Custom tags and escaped entities are often poorly handled by MT engines. Custom.MT engineers can design a tag-handling pipeline for you to ensure that tags, escaped entities, and shortcodes are protected during automated translation with your preferred model. 

Translating with GPT 

The Custom.MT Console includes the ability for translators to write their own prompt to ChatGPT and GPT-4 and receive the translation based on that prompt in memoQ. 

• specify the target audience 
• decide on a formal or informal address 
• rewrite the translation in a specific style and with specific instructions 
• correct spelling errors in the source 

DeepL + Glossaries + GPT rewrite in memoQ 

With practice, you may set up an efficient pipeline to translate with DeepL using your terminology, then you can rewrite the translation with GPT by taking examples from your previous MT post-editing work. Improve DeepL’s excellent capabilities with a large language model and guide it to make even more accurate translations based on your instructions.
