Translation, built into your systems.
tolingo connect is built for teams with recurring translation needs, in e-commerce, technical documentation, HR and on digital platforms. Your content goes automatically from the system to translation and back, finished, with no export, email loops or copy-paste. For the portal, and for folder and mailbox, you need no developer. Transferred to ISO 27001, ready from 2 hours depending on the connection route.

How your content reaches us.
Behind all three routes runs the same translation operation, with the same specialist translators, the same quality assurance and the same audit trail. The only difference is how your content reaches us. The customer portal, and folder and mailbox, need no developer at all; only the API route is aimed at teams with their own development.
For teams that want to start today, with no IT at all.
- Upload, see the delivery date, download finished files
- Preconfigured for your document types, languages and prices
- Order history and invoices in one place
For teams with a steady document flow but no developer capacity.
- Drop a file into a defined folder or send it to a dedicated mailbox
- The translation comes back automatically to the same place
- Consolidated monthly billing, no separate invoices
For platforms and products that build translation in as a feature.
- Your system sends the order and metadata; the status comes back automatically
- Finished files to your return address, with no manual step
- On request under your brand, invisible in your product
Technical details on the interface: REST API for translations. Which systems connect directly: system integration.
One connection, all your translations.
tolingo connect.© connects your systems to our translation operation. An integration layer that we run ourselves takes in your content, reads the document type, language pair and delivery date from the details you supply, and creates the translation project automatically. The finished translation goes back the same way, with status updates and an audit trail.
The connection is configuration, not a development project: we set up an existing route for you, with no new build. You'll find technical details on the interface on the API for translations page, and ready-made connections to common systems under system integration.

Compatible with the systems you already use.
Whether it's a content system, shop, product database or cloud storage: common platforms have ready-made connections, and everything else we connect through the open interface. A selection of supported systems:

What changes with a connection.
Without a connection, every translation is a small project: export, email, chase, feed back in. With one order a quarter, you barely notice. With twenty a month, it becomes a job description. tolingo connect turns the project into a background process.
The manual way works, but it has a price: your time.
- No setup needed
- Perfectly fine for occasional one-off orders
The order is created where the content is created: in your system.
- Your system hands over content automatically
- Status with no chasing, delivery date binding
- Return on the spot, in the right format
- Every step logged with a timestamp

What teams use tolingo connect.© for.
Wherever content comes up regularly and in a similar form, a connection pays off. Four scenarios from practice.
New items are translated as soon as they're created, with consistent terminology across all markets. That keeps internationalisation in step with your range. More on the sector under e-commerce & trade.
References, certificates and diplomas of international specialists, in a consistent form and high volume. On request certified by sworn translators and so recognised by German authorities.
Manuals and data sheets from the editorial system, in 10 to 20 languages per model cycle. This is where translation memory pays off most: repeated content isn't paid for twice. More under technical translation.
You offer your customers translations directly in your product; tolingo delivers in the background. On request under your brand, with fixed prices per document type that you can pass on to your customers.
Automation handles the handover; you choose the translation.
Automation often raises a suspicion about translation: surely an unchecked machine is doing the work. At tolingo connect, the automation is the transport route, not the language work. How deeply it's checked, you decide per order: pure specialist translation by people, or machine translation with human review, both to the appropriate ISO standards. What never happens: unchecked AI without your knowledge.
Takes in your order, checks the details, assigns the language pair, field and delivery date, and returns the result. Every step is logged with a timestamp.
You decide per order: specialist translation by people, on request under the four-eyes principle to ISO 17100, or machine translation with human post-editing to ISO 18587. Both backed by your translation memory and terminology.
Checked resultBack in your system, with a quality certificate as a PDF. An additional linguistic check is available through our editing and proofreading.
Note: You set the translation depth per document type once, for example specialist translation for contracts, machine translation with post-editing for large recurring volumes. After that, every order runs automatically at the chosen level, with no need to decide again.
How you start, set up in hours.
The connection routes already exist and are set up for you, not built from scratch. So getting started is a matter of hours to days, not months.
01
First call
We clarify systems, volume, document types and languages and recommend the right connection route, with a pricing model.
02
Setup
We configure your access: language pairs, delivery dates, fixed prices per document type on request. Your translation memory moves across with you.
03
Test run
With real files, in both directions. You check the flow, the formats and the return before the first live order runs.
04
Live
From now on, every order runs automatically. Your contact stays: Peer Bosse looks after your integration personally.
Automatic doesn't mean out of control.
Product data, HR documents, contracts: what runs through a connection is often confidential. So every order follows the same security rules, from the first byte to the return.
All routes run SSL-encrypted over secured connections. No document hangs unprotected on an email.
Processing exclusively on European servers to ISO 27001, GDPR-compliant and regularly audited.
We run the integration layer ourselves. Your content doesn't pass through third-party automation services and doesn't leave the controlled transfer path.
Every handover is documented with a timestamp: intake, processing, delivery. Traceable for internal checks and audits.
One connection, all language pairs.
Whether one target market or twenty: every language runs over the same route, with native-speaker specialist translators and consistent terms through central terminology management. New languages we switch on within the existing connection, with no new setup.

Systems, security, quality and cost.
Which systems can be connected, and do we need developers?
The connection is independent of the system: shop and content systems, product databases, HR software or document management. For the customer portal, and for folder and mailbox, you need no developers. Only the API route is aimed at teams with their own development, with documentation and technical support from us. Ready-made connections to common systems are under system integration.
How quickly are we up and running?
The customer portal is set up within 2 hours, with no developer. The folder or mailbox connection stands in 3 days. For the API connection we agree the timeline in a kick-off, depending on your system and scope, on request.
Does a machine do the translating at tolingo connect?
That's your call. What's automatic is intake, assignment and return, not the language work. Per document type you choose the depth: specialist translation by people, on request under the four-eyes principle to ISO 17100, or machine translation with human post-editing to ISO 18587. Unchecked AI without your knowledge does not happen.
How secure is our data in transfer?
All transfers run SSL-encrypted, and processing takes place exclusively on European servers to ISO 27001. We run the integration layer on our own infrastructure, with no third-party automation services. Every handover is logged with a timestamp.
What does tolingo connect cost?
Setup depends on the connection route and is charged once. Ongoing translations cost from €0.05 per word with machine translation and post-editing, or from €0.12 per word as specialist translation. For recurring document types we agree fixed prices per document on request. The concrete quote follows the first call.
Do our translation memories and glossaries still work?
Yes. We take existing translation memories and glossaries into the connection. Every new translation is checked against them, repetitions get cheaper, and your terminology stays consistent across all systems and languages.
