Technology & API at tolingo at a glance
  • What it is: Five technology building blocks that automate translation, make it cheaper and keep it consistent. tolingo connect is the ready-made, automated route that applies them in your systems.
  • Connect: The API is the interface your software uses to create orders. System integration embeds it in your tools.
  • Save & terms: The translation memory stores whole sentences retrospectively. Glossary creation builds your term base; terminology management maintains it.
  • Who it's for: Companies with ongoing translation needs, several languages or their own software, that want to build translation into their processes.

Translation becomes part of your workflows
Why technology makes the difference in the AI era

If you communicate regularly in many languages, the classic way of ordering hits its limits: too slow, too manual, too expensive at volume. As a translation agency with its own technology, tolingo treats translation as what it is today: a process that can be automated, made cheaper and controlled. Five building blocks mesh together for that. Each delivers value on its own; together they turn many separate orders into one continuous workflow.

How the building blocks work together
From a single tool to a continuous process

Each building block works on its own. They have the greatest effect in combination:

01 Connect

API & integration

The API connects your systems to tolingo; integration embeds it. Content flows into translation automatically, with no manual step.

automatic in your tools
02 Save

Translation Memory

Sentences already translated are reused, so they aren't recalculated. With every order the memory grows and the next one gets cheaper.

up to 70% off retrospective
03 Control terms

Glossary & terminology

Glossary creation sets your terms; terminology management maintains them over time. So your brand stays consistent, even with fully automated orders.

set maintain

The result Translation runs in the background of your systems: triggered automatically, kept cheap through reuse, kept consistent through fixed terms. tolingo connect is the ready-made, automated route for it.

Secure, with a human in the loop
Automation, but never on its own

All building blocks work to ISO/IEC 27001: encrypted transfer, processing on European servers, clearly governed access, with an NDA on request. For all the automation, a dedicated contact stays at your side to guide the setup and answer questions. Which building blocks make sense for you, we clarify in a short initial call.

You don't have to introduce everything at once

Many companies start with one building block, such as the translation memory or a glossary, and expand step by step. Each block already delivers value on its own, yet can be linked with the others at any time.

Common questions about technology & API
Choice, effort, security, getting started

Do we have to use all five building blocks?

No. Each building block works independently. Many companies start with one, such as the translation memory, and add API, integration, glossary or terminology later. You combine exactly what fits your needs. If you want the whole set as a ready-made route, that is tolingo connect.

What's the difference between API and system integration?

The API is the interface itself, through which software creates orders. System integration is the concrete embedding of that interface into a system such as a CMS or shop. If you develop in-house, you use the API directly; if you want a ready-made connection, integration.

How do Translation Memory and terminology management differ?

The translation memory stores whole sentences retrospectively and suggests them again. Terminology management sets, in advance, what individual terms are called. One saves cost, the other secures your brand language. The two work together.

What's the difference between glossary creation and terminology management?

Glossary creation builds the term set once, with approved translations and a block list. Terminology management then maintains and applies those terms continuously across all projects. The glossary is the foundation; terminology management is the ongoing process on top of it.

How secure is our data?

tolingo is certified to ISO 27001. Transfer and storage are encrypted, processing runs on European servers, access is clearly governed. On request, we sign an NDA before the first data exchange.

What's the best way to get started?

With a short initial call. We look at your translation needs, your volume and your systems and recommend which building blocks deliver the fastest value. Get in touch.
