SYSTRAN Press Release

SYSTRAN unveils SYSTRANLinks: A powerful online translation service for websites and content applications.

Turnkey outsourced translation solution adds value to digital content by providing real-time customisable translations to millions of web users.

London, England, 23 April 2001

SYSTRAN, the market leader in translation technologies for the Internet, PCs, and network environments, today announced the release of an advanced version of its already acclaimed service SYSTRANLinks. The first-ever turnkey, customisable translation solution now includes increased functionalities specifically designed to manage the growing demand for dynamic translation of Web content. This innovative service is available today at www.SYSTRANLinks.com

SYSTRANLinks instantly adds value to digital content by allowing a given Website to be immediately accessed in different languages. Now every company can attract new visitors who will be able to understand content otherwise foreign to them by using this cost-effective, user-friendly online translation service. Localization is no longer optional for companies whose sites need to be available in dynamic multilingual content in parallel form. Simply put, SYSTRANLinks transforms standard e-commerce applications, chat forums, email, and WAP services into multilingual media.

Easy-to-use, SYSTRANLinks automatically accounts for any updates made to the site. This means that when an update is made to the site, those changes are by design considered during the translation process in the language selected by the user. Site owners and Webmasters can take advantage of this highly productive service today and easily register their URL at www.SYSTRANLinks.com to activate an account.

Website visitors need only to select the language of their choice and immediately are able to navigate the site in their chosen language. This new version of SYSTRANLinks offers two innovative features that include personalized account management and the ability to create customized dictionaries.

SYSTRANLinks Personal Account provides the subscriber with complete management privileges with immediate access to the translation parameters. Also included is a statistical tracking tool that monitors the number of site visitors and languages selected by the site's visitors. This enables the subscribing business to transparently evaluate the return on its investment from the SYSTRANLinks service.

MyDictionary is a customisable, multilingual dictionary. Users of the SYSTRANLinks Service can simply insert their own words and expressions that they want included in their translation process. No previous knowledge of linguistics or grammar is required to use MyDictionary. MyDictionary integrates customer-specific terminology to produce more accurate translation results.

"Multilingual sites generate much higher traffic rates and stimulate increased sales on e-commerce sites," commented Pierre-Yves Foucou, SYSTRAN's Chief Technology Officer. "This interactive version of SYSTRANLinks allows Webmasters to fully control, optimise and enhance the translation quality of their site."

Pricing for SYSTRANLinks follows:

SYSTRANLinks Silver: 10 language pairs, (999 Euros per year )
SYSTRANLinks Gold: 28 language pairs, (CPM-based, from 1,680 Euros per quarter)
SYSTRANLinks Custom: comprehensive customized applications.
