Language & Translation AI

Not every language task needs a large model. Managed language and translation APIs handle common needs cheaply, predictably and at scale.

Language & Translation AI: diagram comparing AWS, Azure and Google Cloud
How a text is processed, and how AWS, Azure and Google Cloud each implement it.

Why it matters

Translating support tickets, detecting sentiment in reviews and extracting entities from emails are high-volume tasks. Purpose-built APIs do them at a fraction of LLM cost, with consistent outputs and simpler compliance.

How it works

A language pipeline

Text arrives from emails, reviews, tickets or chats. It is detected and translated, then entities and personal data are extracted, the text is classified for sentiment, topic or intent, and the result is stored or routed to the right team.

What makes each cloud different

AWS

Amazon Translate supports real-time and batch translation with custom terminology for product names, and Comprehend extracts entities, PII and sentiment with custom classifiers for your own categories.

Azure

Azure Translator handles text and document translation that keeps file layout, and Azure AI Language offers entities, PII, opinion mining and custom classification.

Google Cloud

Google Cloud Translation offers adaptive translation that learns from examples and glossaries, and the Natural Language API provides entities, syntax and sentiment.

Design decisions that matter

  1. 01APIs for common tasks

    LLMs for open-ended ones.

  2. 02Control terminology

    Brand and product names stay correct.

  3. 03Redact PII early

    Before storage and analytics.

  4. 04Custom classifiers for your categories

    Routing that matches your business.

Common mistakes we see

  • LLMs for simple translation at scale. Higher cost and less consistency.
  • Ignoring domain terms. Mistranslated product names.
  • Storing raw text with PII. Avoidable privacy risk.

How we work with you

  1. 1Assess

    A focused review of your language and translation AI across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. We look for the gaps we find most often: LLMs for simple translation at scale, ignoring domain terms and storing raw text with PII.

  2. 2Design

    A target architecture and roadmap built on the decisions that matter most: APIs for common tasks, control terminology, redact PII early and custom classifiers for your categories.

  3. 3Build

    Hands-on delivery alongside your team. We pick a high-volume text stream, add translation and PII redaction, add sentiment and classification, and finally route results and measure time saved.

  4. 4Run and improve

    We maintain glossaries, review quality and add new languages as you expand.
