Welcome to TAUS

The Translation Automation User Society (TAUS) is a community of users and providers of translation technologies and services. The ambition of the TAUS community is to translate a manifold of content in an increasing number of languages through technology adoption, service innovation and cross-industry collaboration.

TAUS focuses on the whole spectrum of authoring, translation and globalization processes and technologies. Simply by enabling organizations to share relevant information, identify good practices, find technologies and experts, benchmark processes and leverage their buying influence, TAUS helps companies to save management time, avoid the risk of mistaken decisions, and save money. And by exchanging experiences and insights, TAUS members cut back dramatically on the learning and implementation costs of new translation technologies.

Change leaders

The translation industry has always been a fragmented market place. The culture of creativity and craftsmanship has hindered it from adopting technology at the same pace as other industries. The rapidly changing landscape requires new thinking. In its current state the language and translation industry is incapable of meeting the requirements for local language support in an open, global society. It could quadruple in size if we can speed up translation time, process more volume and handle more languages.

By working together the TAUS Community explores new skill sets, new platforms, new working methods and new roles for the players in the global translation market. TAUS is driving forward the agenda of change for its community members, stimulating innovation, automation and collaboration. Our mission is to increase the size and the significance of the translation industry, helping the world to communicate better.
