DeepL SE, a well-funded translation software startup that leverages customized artificial intelligence models for improved accuracy over traditional platforms, has announced the debut of its most powerful AI model yet.

The startup’s next-generation language model is said to be designed specifically for translation and editing tasks. It’s based on a highly specialized large language model that’s fine-tuned on enormous amounts of proprietary language data. The company says the LLM provides more “human-like translations” with a reduced risk of hallucinations and misinformation.

The new model’s skills were enhanced via a human model tutoring process that involved thousands of handpicked language experts, who were hired to “tutor” the model to ensure the accuracy of its translations.

Germany-based DeepL has emerged as a rival to better-known translation systems such as Google Translate and general-purpose AI models such as ChatGPT, which can perform translations as part of a much wider repertoire of skills. Because DeepL’s systems are laser-focused on translating and creating business content, the company claims its models provide much more accurate and precise translations for enterprises.
