Google Translator Toolkit is a web service designed to allow translators to edit the translations that Google Translate automatically generates. With the Google Translator Toolkit, translators can organize their work and use shared translations, glossaries and translation memories. They can upload and translate Microsoft Word documents, OpenOffice, RTF, HTML, text, Wikipedia articles and Knols.
Google Translator Toolkit is supported by Google Translate, a free online language translation service that instantly translates text and web pages. Google Translate allows users to get instant machine translations of text that they paste into the web interface or of websites for which they supply a link. Google Translate provides automatic translations produced primarily by Statistical analysis rather than traditional rule-based analysis. These translations can then be edited using the Google Translator Toolkit editor. Google Translator Toolkit was released by Google Inc. on June 9, 2009. This product was expected to be named Google Translation Center, as had been announced in August 2008. However, the Google Translation Toolkit turned out to be a less ambitious product: "document rather than project-based, intended not as a process management package but simply another personal translation memory tool".
