Everything your translation team needs

Purpose-built for any organization that translates between English and French — government, enterprise, or software teams.

Terminology Management

Centralized bilingual glossary with domain filtering, TBX/CSV/TMX import, and a public terminology portal at app.terminova.io/terms — accessible without login.

Complete Audit Trail

Every action timestamped with user attribution. Formal change control with versioning. Meet ATIP requirements and respond to audits in minutes.

Vendor Portal

Bilingual Interface

Full English/French interface toggle on every page — 611 translation keys with zero gaps. Email notifications sent in user's preferred language.

SLA Engine

Configurable SLA deadlines by priority (Urgent 4h / High 24h / Normal 72h). Business hours calculation with weekend pause. Breach alerts fire automatically. SLA clock pauses while waiting for client.

Revision Workflow

5-step workflow: Intake → Translation → Revision → QA → Delivery. Auto-routing rules assign vendors, set priorities, and configure required steps based on language pair, volume, and business unit.

Financial Reporting

Resource Management

Translator profiles with language pairs, subject expertise, and daily capacity. Real-time utilization tracking. Smart assignment suggestions ranked by match score and availability.
