Description
Translate with Context. Your AI, Your Rules.
Say goodbye to translating isolated sentences that just don't match. TransAIde lets you translate entire documents, preserving the full context for perfectly consistent results.
In a nutshell, TransAIde lets you export your source text from Trados Studio, translate the entire document at once using any AI you choose, and then seamlessly import the translation back into your project. The result is a perfectly consistent, context-aware translation, free from the limitations of segment-by-segment work.
Core Features:
- Export source or existing target text from Trados Studio.
- Export text to a text file or an AI-optimized JSON format.
- Export term lists from your Trados Studio project to a text file.
- Import translated or reviewed text from a file or clipboard directly into Trados Studio.
- Review your AI-translated text segment-by-segment in a dedicated window in the Trados Studio editor.
Main Ways to Use TransAIde:
- Translate entire documents with full context.
- Use any AI models you want (e.g., Claude, Gemini, OpenAI).
- Leverage any NMT systems (DeepL, Lara, etc.).
- Work your way in AI or NMT systems (chat, projects, API, AI agents, DeepL app).
- Create your own prompts, projects, skills, gems with any context, free from CAT tool limitations.

Quick Start Guide.
Introduction
Translation Provider plugins in Trados Studio only send the current segment to NMT or AI systems. The GenAI model or NMT system does not know the content of the entire document or anything about the previous and next segments. In this way, each sentence is translated in complete isolation from the others. The TransAIde plugin allows you to export the entire text from Trados Studio, then translate it in the selected GenAI model or NMT system, and finally import the consistent translation back into Trados Studio.
The TransAIde plugin is not a Translation Provider plugin. It allows you to export the entire source text from a document opened in the Trados Studio editor in text or JSON format and import the translation in text or JSON format into the document opened in the Trados Studio editor.
Key Features
Features Available from the Ribbon in Trados Studio Editor View
Export segments

Export Type:
- Source only (Text File): exports the source text in text format. Each segment is on a separate line in the text file.
- Target only (Text File): exports the translation text. Each segment is on a separate line in the text file.
- JSON file: exports the source text, translation, segment type and segment identification data. The JSON file also contains a space for comments. The file is intended to be updated by an AI model.

Import segments

Translation Import: Target Only (Text File): imports a text file with the translation. The lines in the text file must match the segments in Trados Studio. Target Only (Clipboard): imports the translation copied to the Windows clipboard. The lines in the text must match the segments in Trados Studio. JSON file: imports translations from the "target" field of a JSON file.
Export terms

Terms are exported from the local termbase in MultiTerm format. The local termbase must be the default termbase. If the default termbase is a termbase from Trados Cloud or Groupshare, a NullReferenceException error will appear, but you will be able to continue working. Support for online termbases will be added in future versions of the plugin.
Terms are exported divided into required and forbidden terms.
Features Available in the TransAIde View of the Plugin
The plugin also offers a View Part for working with JSON files, which can be enabled in the View menu in the Trados Studio Editor view.

In this window, you can select a JSON file containing the file updated in the AI model and work with each segment. After selecting the file, you need to attach it using the Attach File button/command. The window displays the source, translation and comment from the JSON file, as well as the difference between the translation in the current segment and the translation in the JSON file. This window can be used, for example, to translate fuzzy segments or to review translations in an AI model. To apply the translation from the TransAide window to the active segment, click the Apply button.
