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 the project members will be able to 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 Pre-translation feature.
