Phrase Portal serves as a customizable MT interface accessible to users across varying levels of localization proficiency to translate documents or texts in a secure organization environment.
Phrase Portal is powered by Phrase Language AI, incorporating a range of fully managed MT engines. By leveraging the MT Auto Detect feature, it automatically recommends the best possible engine for any given translation.
The quality of MT translations is automatically evaluated by Phrase QPS for file translations. If enabled, QPS scoring will be displayed in the translation interface of the portal.
Every user with TMS Administrator rights can be a Portal administrator. The Portal administrator is enabled to create and configure a maximum of 9 portals tailored to specific departments or projects, by leveraging available resources:
-
MT glossaries attached to relevant MT profiles
-
MT engine models trained with Phrase Custom AI and configured in Phrase NextMT can be attached to different portals
