Yaraku, Inc. (Shibuya, Tokyo, CEO: Suguru Sakanishi) has updated the translation platform "YarakuZen" that integrates features such as AI translation, editing / sharing, and ordering from translation companies (* 1). We have a new YarakuZen company plan for a small number of people, and new features such as document sharing to anyone. With this update, we will promote easier and more efficient introduction to companies with translation needs, and support the conversion of translation work to DX.

On October 5, 2020, we published a new book, English Hacker's Handbook "Machine Translation Taizen". The book is co-authored by our representative Suguru Sakanishi and the Masaru Yamada Laboratory which studies translation and interpretation at the Faculty of Foreign Languages, Kansai University.

Here, we introduce efficient ways of using machine translation and the translation tools YarakuZen and YarakuStick.

Please see the press release for details.

The world's first portable simultaneous translation device YarakuStick (β) (https://www.yarakustick.com) is available today. 

YarakuStick (β) is a completely new simultaneous translation device. Instead of translating and speaking one sentence at a time like conventional voice translators, YarakuStick (β) will continuously perform machine translation and display it as subtitles. 

YarakuStick (β) is completely synchronized with our translation platform YarakuZen, so the accumulated translation data and the customized translation engines of YarakuZen can be used on your PC.

We are currently looking for companies to give feedback on the real-world performance of Yaraku Stick (β). Let’s build a better product together! Click here for companies who wish to participate in product testing.

We will continue to update for the official release of YarakuStick (β). 

For details, please visit YarakuStick (β) website (https://www.yarakustick.com) or see the official press release. 

-Providing translations that better meet user needs-

Starting today, with "YarakuZen", you can now use the DeepL translation engine developed by German deep learning frim DeepL. (Company Plan only)
