Category: Machine Translation
Type: System
Author: Crowdin

Integrate one of the world's most powerful and accurate machine translation engines directly into your Crowdin localization projects. DeepL Translator provides natural, contextually precise translations that significantly speed up the localization of websites, mobile apps, and documentation while minimizing manual editing costs.

By default, machine translations are enabled for each project, but it is required to configure the translation engines before project members can use them.

## Key features:

- Superior quality: DeepL’s neural networks capture even the slightest linguistic nuances.
- Flexible customization: Support for formality tone selection (formal/informal) and model optimization (e.g., Latency optimized).
- Automation ready: Display machine translation (MT) suggestions to translators in the Editor instantly, or fully automate your workflow using the Auto-translation feature.
- Consistent terminology: Apply glossaries from your DeepL account to machine translations. To reuse the terms you manage in Crowdin, synchronize your Crowdin glossaries to DeepL with the [DeepL Glossary Sync](https://store.crowdin.com/deepl-glossary-sync) app.
