New Language AI solution brings translation excellence to the
next level for enterprises
COLOGNE, Germany, July 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DeepL, a leading
global Language AI company, today announced the launch of its
next-generation language model, powered by a highly-specialized LLM
technology built specifically for translation and editing. The
latest update represents a breakthrough advancement in DeepL's
Language AI platform for businesses and sets a new industry
standard for translation quality and performance.
The new solution combines three capabilities unmatched in this
field:
- A Specialized LLM - The DeepL solution leverages a LLM
uniquely tuned for language, resulting in more human-like
translations and writing for a variety of use cases with a reduced
risk of hallucinations and misinformation.
- Proprietary Data - Unlike general purpose models that simply
train on the public internet, the DeepL model leverages over seven
years of proprietary data specifically tuned for content creation
and translation.
- Human Model Tutoring - With a focus on quality, the DeepL model
leverages thousands of hand-picked language experts specifically
trained to "tutor" the model to best-in-class
translation.
The latest results of this new solution significantly raise the
bar for AI translation quality, with blind tests showing the DeepL
translation is preferred by language experts up to 2.3 times more
often than major AI competitors. "This is only the beginning of
DeepL's superior LLM-powered Language AI solutions for businesses,"
said Jarek Kutylowski, CEO and
Founder, DeepL. "We are a research-driven company to our core and
are investing heavily in pushing the boundaries of translation and
writing quality, efficiency, and adaptability. Our goal is to
empower our customers worldwide with the industry-leading
technology they need to thrive and scale globally without a
language barrier standing in the way."
"Bringing our new LLM to market is a significant milestone for
our research team, however, the real proof lies in the tangible
impact we can bring to our customers When testing our new
model, professional translators noted that DeepL translations need
far fewer manual edits to achieve better quality than competitors.
For businesses who translate a large volume of documents, this
truly impacts their efficiency and productivity, meaning team
members can focus on tasks with high-business value," says
Stefan Mesken, VP
Research.
Since its inception in 2017, DeepL has become the go-to Language
AI provider for businesses around the world, offering cutting-edge
translation and writing solutions that are a critical investment
for international business growth, addressing communication
challenges across various domains, including internal operations
and customer support. Unlike general-purpose AI systems, DeepL's
cutting-edge translation and writing solutions rely on specialized
AI models specifically tuned for language, resulting in more
precise translations for a variety of use cases and a reduced risk
of hallucinations and misinformation. In business translation and
writing, accuracy is paramount, making specialized AI models the
most reliable and preferred solution for language
challenges.
The introduction of DeepL's new, next-gen model represents a
significant enhancement to DeepL's already industry-leading
translation services. Blind tests conducted with leading linguists
found a remarkable 1.7x improvement with the new LLM, against the
old model, for combinations involving English to Japanese and
Simplified Chinese. Additionally, there was a 1.4x improvement for
the combination of English and German. These significant accuracy
increases will save business users valuable time on manual editing,
enabling them to communicate more efficiently across teams and
markets.
Translations powered by the next-gen model are now available for
DeepL Pro customers for translations in English, Japanese, German,
and Simplified Chinese, with additional languages coming soon. The
new LLM can be activated within the web translator by
selecting "next-gen model," giving users further control over the
translation experience. DeepL Pro users are also protected by
enterprise-grade security and compliance standards (ISO 27001
certification, GDPR/SOC 2 type 2 compliance), and no Pro
translations are ever used to train its models.
This newly-released model is the latest offering from DeepL amid
one of its most transformative years yet. Earlier this month, the
company launched DeepL for Enterprise, a language technology
tailored to address the evolving needs of businesses seeking to
integrate AI solutions. DeepL's rapid growth and demand worldwide
are also reflected by its rapidly-expanding customer network, which
now includes over 100,000+ business, governments and other
organizations worldwide including 50% of the Fortune 500. The
company also announced that it had raised $300M of new investment at a $2B valuation in May
2024, led by renowned late-stage investment firm Index
Ventures.
