What is the best API for translation?

Countless translation APIs exist, making the process of finding the best API for translation quite challenging.

The best API for translation should provide impeccable translations and allow seamless communication, but other decisive features? Here are three:

HTTPS protocol: Data sent over the internet falls easy prey to attackers due to poor security. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificates are integral for providing secured cloud translations. This is verifiable by checking whether the URL of the API you are using begins with HTTPS, as domains secured with SSL start with HTTPS. 🔐

Control over data: Users put in information from the moment they log into the service provider. Quality translation API providers allow users to manage and delete their data. Localazy allows its users to delete their information and use each other’s data positively by giving them the option to exchange already once done translations with other users through ShareTM.

Format regulation: It requires time and energy to format the translated or localized content manually. The ideal translation API maintains the format needed by users and even better if it provides conversions.

Before selecting a translation API, check the supported features and whether they’re helpful to you. Most machine translation engine APIs out there include all three of our features. However, quality translations require a human translator to review everything before hitting the live launch button.

Localazy gives you the power to have content delivered via API translated and reviewed by humans & removes the need for hiring a translator from your side. Read more here. 😎
