■ The Marketplace continues to develop with this participation

To meet the ever-increasing demand for translation services in recent years, Yaraku, Inc. has developed the Marketplace specializing in post-editing. As of February 2022, six translation agencies have joined in the Marketplace continuing its evolution to meet the diverse translation demands of society.

＜What is post-editing?＞

Post-editing refers to the process in which a professional translator edits the output results from machine translation. By using machine translation, which utilizes deep learning to continually improve its accuracy, to create a rough translation and then have a professional translator edit and revise it, it is possible to cut costs by up to 90% and increase translation speed by up to 70% while maintaining the quality of the translation.

 

■ New agency members wanted!

Users of YarakuZen can place post-editing orders with translation agencies in the Marketplace with one-click. By participating in the Marketplace, translation agencies will be able to generate more demand and bring in new customers. In addition, there is the advantage of gaining expertise in post-editing, which is expected to become more widespread in the future.

We are planning to invite more translation agencies to join the Marketplace, and we are actively looking for more agencies to join us.
