How to use BabelShark

Getting started with BabelShark is designed to be a simple and intuitive process, requiring minimal technical overhead. You can have your multilingual site live in three main steps:

1. Integrate and Translate: Create a project in your BabelShark account. The integration is straightforward—simply add a small code snippet to your website or HTML app. Then, apply a specific CSS class to the text elements you wish to localize. BabelShark's AI will instantly detect and translate this content.
2. Review and Refine: Access the online editor in your BabelShark dashboard. Here, you can review all the AI-generated translations. Use the AI-powered proofreader to check for accuracy and get quality scores. Manually edit any line or term to ensure it perfectly fits your brand's context and tone. Utilize the Glossary feature to maintain consistency for key terms like brand names or technical jargon.
3. Launch and Analyze: Once you are satisfied with the translations, you can launch your multilingual website immediately. You also have flexible deployment options to schedule the launch. After going live, use the Language Insights and visitor analytics to understand your audience's language preferences, helping you decide which new languages to add next.

Core Features of BabelShark

• AI-Powered Translation & Proofreading: Leverage state-of-the-art AI to get instant, remarkably accurate translations. The built-in AI proofreader reviews translations for quality, provides a percentage-based accuracy score, and suggests improvements, even if you don't speak the target language.
• Selective Content Translation: Maintain full control over what gets translated. BabelShark intelligently avoids translating sensitive content like brand names (e.g., "El Corte Inglés"), usernames, or company titles, preventing common and awkward translation errors.
• Terms Glossary: Create and manage a custom dictionary for key terms. This ensures that your brand name, product features, and specific industry jargon are translated consistently and correctly across all languages.
• Online Editor and Full Control: A user-friendly online editor allows you to easily review, edit, and approve every translation. You have the final say on all content, blending AI efficiency with human oversight.
• Visitor Language Analytics: Gain valuable insights into your audience. The platform analyzes your visitors' browser languages and their preferred language settings on your site, providing clear data to inform your localization strategy.
