Overview
We started Lilt to increase information access. Human translators can guarantee quality, but are comparatively slow and expensive. Machine translation is fast and cheap, but quality ranges from surprisingly good to comically bad. Somewhere between these two extremes is a human+machine partnership that can produce good translation quickly.
