Two types of Machine Translation Post Editing services
End-to-End
Customers just give us the source content to be translated. We use the best machine translation for the language pair and get it post-edited by human translators.
Post-Editing Only
Customers send us bilingual files with the source text and machine translation. Our expert human translators edit the target content.
Types of MTPE services
Light Post Editing
Light post-editing is a suitable approach if you only need to verify whether the intended meaning is conveyed in the machine translation text without paying much attention to grammatical and syntax errors.
During light-post editing, the linguist focuses on
– Ensuring the context and readability are maintained
– Minimizing the number of corrections
– Ensuring the meaning and intent are conveyed
The following aspects are not checked: spelling, grammar, and syntax.
This approach is particularly beneficial for internal communications, news articles, information notices, RFPs, and customer reviews.
Complete Post Editing
Complete post-editing involves a more comprehensive approach, where the human translator spends time checking and editing every line of the machine-generated translation.
In addition to the objectives of light post-editing, complete post-editing focuses on
– Ensuring sense, readability and style are refined
– Appropriateness of localized cultural references
– Correcting spelling and grammar errors
– Maintaining consistent stylistic elements
– Maintaining uniform terminology
This approach is suitable for texts with high exposure, such as ads and promotional material, websites, and external communication.

FAQS ON MTPE SERVICES
How is Machine Translation different from MTPE?
In Machine Translation(MT), the machine-translated output is treated as final and does not undergo further processes. Whereas in MTPE, the machine-translated text undergoes light editing or complete editing by professional translators, depending on the requirements.
Are your MTPE services available in all languages?
Machine Translation engines are not developed enough to translate all languages. So, MTPE services are also available for limited languages.
Currently, our MTPE services are available in 35+ languages. Get in touch with us to know more.
How much do MTPE services cost?
The cost of Machine Translation Post Editing services varies according to the word count, type of content, language pair, and the type of editing that is required to be done on the machine translated text. Get in touch to get a free quotation.
How long does MTPE take?
MTPE is faster when compared with 100% human translation. However, the time taken to complete the post-editing step may vary depending on the complexity, length, language pair and overall nature of the document. We can provide you with a timeline after an analysis of your project.
