Short answer: No. ownvia complements existing translation tools and processes. Companies and language service providers can continue using their existing systems and integrate AI-assisted translation functions where needed.
How does ownvia complement existing translation tools?
Keep using existing systems: Existing CAT tools, TMS or content systems do not generally need to be replaced.
Integrate AI functions: Interfaces and integrations allow ownvia to be incorporated into existing processes.
Connect Trados Studio: The ownvia AI Translation Provider allows ownvia to be used directly within Trados Studio.
Control AI centrally: Translation Templates allow prompts, terminology and other translation knowledge to be managed centrally in ownvia.
✅ Practical example:
A language service provider already uses Trados Studio and established review and approval processes. Instead of replacing this infrastructure, they integrate ownvia for AI-assisted translation and continue carrying out quality assurance through their existing processes.
💡 Good to know:
ownvia can be integrated as a central AI layer into an existing translation environment. This allows existing systems and working methods to be retained and selectively extended with AI-assisted translation functions.
