Amazon Translate customers

Our customer had a challenge and resourcing nightmare when looking for multiple agents that speak niche languages to staff a 24/7 global service desk. To solve this issue, we developed and deployed seamless machine translation, powered by Amazon Connect Chat and Amazon Translate, in two months. Our customer increased their productivity, reduced costs from call deflections, and reduced headcount requirements for this help desk. These customers no longer needed to wait for calls from agents with language support, multi-lingual chats reduced call volumes by 27% in three months.

Child sexual abuse is a borderless crime, with offenders connecting with each other across the globe. With Amazon Translate, we are able to work across jurisdictions to help law enforcement identify more victims of child sexual abuse faster on a global scale.

Amazon Translate has been the perfect catalyst for our expansion into the global e-learning market where the most important key to success is breaking down language barriers. Being able to seamlessly integrate Amazon Translate alongside other AWS solutions has been a huge help in achieving language scalability at unprecedented speed. Powered by Amazon Translate, CLASS101 is now able to provide its subscription service on a single, globally-integrated platform where subtitles for lesson videos and learning materials are offered in multiple languages simultaneously. As a result, we are bringing our fast-growing global community of subscribers and 130,000+ registered creators closer together than ever before.

Many of our customers used to struggle to staff their help desk or service centers with agents to cover all the required languages. Now in 4me, their customers can submit their requests in their native language and the support specialists can respond in the language they feel most comfortable with. For example, one of our customers had a service help desk supporting their employees in countries such as Poland, Russia, Sweden, Netherlands, France, and Spain, and needed to hire support specialists that were somewhat fluent in one or more of those languages. By using 4me’s Auto Translation feature built on Amazon Translate, agents and employees could communicate with each other in their language of preference. This allowed our customer to reduce the need for additional help desk headcount, and simplify the hiring process resulting in significant cost savings.

Amazon Translate is enabling the BMW Group to transform our translation processes. We use Amazon Translate’s Active Custom Translation to improve the overall quality of our translation output by reflecting BMW’s style, tone and BMW specific terminology.

We don’t need a machine learning specialist, a language specialist, or anything else that goes into this kind of translation service. Amazon Translate is a fundamental rock for scaling our business, It helps us build a good experience for both customers and sellers. The support we’ve received from AWS is amazing.

At Causality Link, we strive to collect and aggregate the wisdom of crowds from a broad set of diverse publications worldwide.

We are fortunate to have staff whose primary languages include French, Dutch, Spanish, and Hindi, and after benchmarking solutions technically and qualitatively, Amazon Translate was the clear winner.

As a company governing 4 separate brands, spanning across over 10 international websites, our demand for quick and simple translations is always increasing, from simple static page translations, to entire product feeds.

BioDigital's customers operate globally and providing a scalable way to augment our 3D visualization with descriptions in multiple languages has always been a hurdle. We’ve been using primarily AWS, including Cloudfront, backed by S3 and EC2 origins, to deliver content to users around the world. We deliver geometry data with Elasticache, EC2, and RDS to store and search content and user data. Historically, automated translation never handled medically terminology well, but early use of Amazon Translate, supported by Lambda for image processing and translation workflows, shows that this service setup handles complex terms across six languages naturally, and therefore provides our customers with a way to share and collaborate across regions. We anticipate Translate will cut the time required to do the translations manually by 80%.
