Ailaysa is a “fast, simple and affordable Machine Translation Post-Editing platform”. In this Live stream, you’ll see my first experience with the localization tool. How did it go?

I’ve documented my whole journey with Ailaysa from the first home page visit, through creating a project, to downloading a translated file in Czech.


Andrej Zito 

What’s up everyone? Hi, this is Andrej. Welcome to today’s stream. What we’re going to be doing in this stream is that I’m going to try a new TMS that I had never heard of before. You’ve probably seen it in the thumbnail. It’s called Ailaysa, I believe, I’m not sure if I’m even reading it, right. So we are live. So that means you guys can send me some comments. And I’m not sure if we have anyone from the team. We have anyone from the team of Ailaysa. And maybe you can tell me how it should be pronounced correctly, and how you actually came up with the name. But for those of you, for the rest of you, who have not seen this type of content before I tried, how many do I even have here, I tried probably around, I don’t know 20-23, 23 different TMS platform before. And the whole idea is that I’m just going to show you how someone could experience a certain TMS for the first time. So that means that what I’m going to do is I’m going to first have a look at the homepage, see what I like, what I don’t like, and I’m going to sign up for an account. We’re going to try to create a project and I’m going to try to translate very simple Office files, either a Word document or a spreadsheet. I think that’s what I used to do. And then hopefully, we’re going to download it and wrap up with that. So as as I go through this first experience, I’m going to try to provide you commentary on what I think is working for me and what I don’t like. So in a way, for the company, hopefully it’s helpful in a way to see how people interact with their TMS and what they might think. So I don’t want to be talking too much, because that’s not important. So I think let’s get right into it. I have my tablet ready here if I need to show something. So let’s go Ailaysa; Ailaysa. Yes. So after I saw it is like this is AI, translation and human anything. I thought it okay, it’s AI-laysa. But then because the I is lowercase. To me, it really looks like a like a female name. So AI translation and human editing. I guess it’s pretty clear what the, I don’t know, the focus is; it’s pretty straightforward. And translation human any fast, simple and affordable machine translation post editing platform. So it looks like they’re mostly focusing on MTPE, which I think in a way, it’s good maybe if you’re starting out, because you want to focus focus on something small and maybe an X that something small before you create something big like I don’t know, Memsource or props. So here we are on the homepage, I have to say that I when the team reached out to me, so another thing is that the team has reached out to me, I forgot your name. Sorry. The team reached out to me through LinkedIn. And they asked me if I would do this. And I said, why not? Because I used to do this before and I like doing this kind of stuff. And it’s more content, so why not? So I have seen I’ve scrolled through the homepage before. But this time I’m going to try to let’s say I don’t know be a little bit more, they call it, dissected. So we’re going to look at each section carefully. And hopefully I’m going to provide some useful comments. So one thing that I remember is definitely this: it’s not even the gradient. I don’t even know how it’s called it looks like it’s like, I’m not sure if you have ever used the MS Paint looks like the paintbrush that spray thing. I have I have to say that I have haven’t seen it in a long time almost anywhere in website. But I think it looks pretty good at least in in this section. Okay, so anyway, so let’s start with the with the with the header section. So AI the logo I think looks looks nice. It’s very simple, which is good for the company. Ailaysa is fine. Here we have what, okay, so we just have the main links, there’s no drop down menu,

Andrej Zito 

it changes to the blue, that’s fine. Login, I think this is slightly bigger font, sign up, it’s free. I think that’s also good that it’s not just the signup button. But it also says that it’s free. I guess that might help with conversion rates. So for header, not much to say pretty much standard but a good standard. Now let’s move on to the main thing, which is the hero section. So here we have create multilingual content

Andrej Zito 

I think I think I shouldn’t be trying to comment too much on the on the copywriting because I’m not a copywriter create multilingual content. To me, it’s straightforward. So I guess I know what to expect. I’ve also seen this styling somewhere that you highlight, I don’t know the important key word in the main color. So obviously we know that their main color is blue, create multilingual content. But to me it doesn’t. It’s not nothing special about it. Just like create multilingual content and Okay, so what, but maybe the subhead would be more exciting AI powered translation platform that takes your business to every country on the planet. Right. So again, I’m not a copywriter, so it is with a grain of salt, but to me, take your business to every country on the planet. I really like that part to me that that is something that is more exciting than creating multilingual content. Start a project now free. Okay, we have a slight color change on the hover, I think that all looks fine. What about the hero picture, the hero image? So here, this gives me an idea that you can translate text? Is this supposed to be audio, video and some documents, which I think is good, because that’s what we want to be doing. Now, when it comes to the hero image itself, it looks like this is it. I wanted to say that my first thought was that this may be a screenshot from the platform. But obviously, I think it’s not because in a way, and this actually might be a little bit confusing, at least to me, because this thing here kind of looks like it’s another homepage has the you know, the text on the left side and the hero image on the right side. Maybe it’s because the because of the framing. So it really looks like a I don’t know, like a like a website like the text is not just floating on the on the actual homepage. I’m not sure if this makes sense. So that to me is a little bit confusing. And maybe also because of the size of the text. It’s not that smaller than this one. So that’s my fault. What we can see here or assume I’m not sure what this is. This is usually I think user translation. What is this like? So this is different recording devices. This I think I’m not sure what this icon stands for this I mean, we can just assume so I guess this is just like things you can do with it. Product Marketing customer service, and I guess this is like okay, you can add people to collaborate What else would I say about this? Yeah, so to me like this is a little bit confusing. I get the idea that AI and human working together. But I think maybe

Andrej Zito 

I don’t know. To me it looks like like I wouldn’t expect text here at this place. Again, based on all the other websites that I’ve seen before, you know because typically you have been here and then you think here. If you have some text here, I think it should be probably maybe smaller. And maybe I think if you took some effort, maybe just the images of the, of the robot with the with the stock lady could be put in a way that already tells you that, okay, it’s AI and human working together, like you wouldn’t need to put a text to it. So that’s, that’s, and here we have in the background, I’m not sure if we’re going to see yellow. More we do. And I think that’s pretty standard, right blue and yellow combination. So I like that. I also like this thing, I started adding this as well to some of the thumbnails. I think it just like a very tiny, have to say, not disturbing, graphical element to make it a little bit more interesting. So I do like it, you cannot see this bar because I’m covering it with the camera. So yeah, I think this looks good. I would think about I’m not sure again, if they AB tested this thing. But I mean, first impression, design wise, it looks good. The most, the main thing that I would probably think about changing is is this text here. Okay, moving on. So this is the section where typically, you would expect maybe to have because of what they’re showing right now what it tells me that normally, if we have like this, I don’t know how to better. But this section with some things. It’s usually the logos of the companies that are your customers, because that’s the short social, social, social proof. But maybe if this is a new company, maybe they’re still working on their testimonials and customers. So I understand it, but I’m not sure if this is that important here. Because it’s like, I don’t know if if there is an expectation that your platform wouldn’t be able able to handle many languages, if this actually adds that much value that okay, maybe for some people, I don’t know. But to me like expectation is if I’m using some platform that it should probably be able to handle a lot of languages. Oh, it’s an image. It’s just a plain image. Language role wrapper. Let’s see how it looks like without it. Elite. Okay, that’s too much. Too close. Okay. Okay, maybe, maybe, wait, let me pull it back. Can I put it back? Okay, I cap our refresh again. So here we are. Okay. So if it’s already here, I don’t think it’s that important. Maybe, maybe the hero image could indicate the languages? Or maybe I would put it somewhere below, but again, so when it comes to the actual style, I think it looks okay. I’m not sure if maybe making it interactive. Let’s say it would be a slowly moving the carousel. But you know, like when you have the list of companies slowly like slides. So maybe this could move and even show more languages. If that’s what you want to show. Maybe it will make it more interesting. But I see we have some animation here. So maybe it would be too much. But I think to me, this is like so much space use just to display the languages. But when it comes to the design, I think the design is okay. So we have the kind of like a ghost button. So clearly, you don’t want to make it full blue, because then it’s going to be competing with this one. I think that’s good. The only thing that I think doesn’t work is the fact that it’s an image and there is not a very crisp, crisp or clear, you know what I mean? So, because this design is very simple. I think maybe it could be just coded as as HTML. Right? That’s the part. Let’s move on. What can you do with Ilyse Eliza? Eliza?

Andrej Zito 

Translate content? Translate Your content with our professional grade machine translation apps, and edit the output with expert translators to ensure highest quality make it the best of AI and human discretion, okay? Localize products because your apps or websites is easy with an AI so we support major chat features like translation memories interfaces, also edit a smart project. Again, copywriting I’m not sure if this should be here it sounds I don’t know, like if you wanted to say that this is, has been just recently edit. But this thing, okay, it looks like this thing here. cleansing your abs is easy. We support major CAD features. This to me looks too good. This to me looks like somebody just I don’t know, it sounds like the correlate product update. Like to me, the style of this also edit smart Project Management module. It doesn’t look like it should be something that’s part of a sales page or your landing page or your homepage. It doesn’t fit with the with the rest of the style. Leverage AI or AI based machine translation app is powered by the global leaders including Google Translate Microsoft, blah, blah blah from has lots of smart features for editors can localize video and audio. We have special workflows and plans for video and audio localization. Okay, I like that. What’s more, you get all the building blocks of the solution AI based transcription translation voice add ons. Okay, that’s great. That’s what I was just looking for the for our course localization. Now, one thing that I definitely have to bring up is the is the right thing. I think it looks super good. The little animation

Andrej Zito 

think this looks good. Maybe this one is moving too fast. Through my taste. Leverage AI This looks very nice. Close video and audio. And this is perfect. This is a very nice. Yeah. This is very nice. Okay, and now we’re going into blue section.

Andrej Zito 

I’m wondering if the one thing that I have to pause here is I’m not sure if the if the gradient here. So we are going from white to blue with the with the spray think add the background. And then this this part here also has a way I think I understand it. I think there’s some transparency here, right. So the blue is actually not part of this box, but it’s from the background. Am I getting that right?

Andrej Zito 

No, you can see anything. Look. Okay. Scrolling scrolling. Alright, just a bit crowns merging background color. I think it’s this one line 0.5. Yeah. So yeah, this is what I wanted to illustrate that, I think because you were already going into some blue here. It means that this part didn’t stand out that much, because it also has a lot of blue elements in it. So I think I actually like it more the way it is right now. So if it’s full white, and there’s no transparency with the background, but otherwise, I mean, like this, this thing here is super cool. One world, one platform device that makes your global journey really possible.

Andrej Zito 

Okay, the first thing that comes to my mind is that here it shows people around the world, which to me, kind of like suggests that it’s more about the collaboration, people can collaborate on the platform, which I guess is the the human aspect of the post editing, right? But the text analyzer makes your global journey really possible. To me it seems more like your global journey is more related to taking your business to every country on the planet. So I’m not sure if this People should are supposed to represent the people who will be, let’s say, consuming the localized content like the customers, or Ilyse US customers. But that’s just my thought. But visually, I mean, it looks good. One world, one platform and I some extra global. Yeah. Visually it looks good. Next one. Okay. When I saw this for the first time, it reminded me of smart kit. I think I saw the style even so the funny thing is that when I was reviewing SmartCAT, I think they have very similar style of their pitch, or they used to have I think they changed already. Yeah, they also had this kind of like, like layered layers. I think they Yeah, I think Eliza has more layers. On the images, then what’s smart, get used to it. But I know when I first saw that, kind of like a style of the images, which market I took a note in my backlog. And I thought, Okay, I need to do that for my website, because I think it looks very good. So I’m not sure if it makes sense. So you can see that it’s kind of like, like here you have like the crowned the yellow one, then you have the purple on it. And then you even have this rocket ship. It’s kind of look like it’s layered on top of each other. And I think it looks good. It makes it more interesting than if you just had let’s say this gentleman here. And of course, I guess obviously, these are stock photos. They look good. I like the colors. So now we’re introducing more colors. We have purple. That’s quite big one. Here we have pink one. I think it looks okay, like it looks more fun. I’m wondering if how it would look like if you stick if you stuck to just blue and yellow. Obviously, we have here. Companies with global aspirations. I’m not sure why this is upper case. It’s not a term if you have set your eyes on the globe, right? join hands with us. Or we offer you a full kit. I think this is again weird English. Get translation and localization of ads website blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and original one from one source. Talking to your customers in their languages a competitive and that edge. What am I doing? Gain it at lightning speed and low cost start free game. So this changes to blue. That’s nice. I think. I think it’s already enough. But what I started doing is that maybe when you hover, even the arrow slightly moves. I like it personally. But of course it’s nothing wrong with this thing. So one thing that I’m noticing here is the combination of the people and these kind of like 3d mock ups or what did this I think it looks like 3d. Here. It’s not a 3d So I think the graphic style. Or if I had to use some fancy word, the art direction on this, I think is slightly slightly. They call it off. I don’t know, first impression first impression. It looks good. But if I think about it more, I’m not sure like if these things add much to it. I guess like okay, the rocket ship is you have global aspirations. What do we have here? Marketers, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob Barr controls all your content via social media. It just looks like a dashboard, but I’m not sure if this is just like, Okay, we’ll put some image of the dashboard. To me, I don’t know. doesn’t add much. And what I was saying before is that okay, we have humans. What do we have before we have humans humans? This is amazing.

Andrej Zito 

To me, it’s just like, like, it looks like you found some graphics. And you just put it there. And what I was saying like this one, okay, looks like a graphic kind of like a 3d think this is, I think a different style. It looks like a mock up. And this thing. I think this thing is not 3d. Although it looks like it has some some shadow but it doesn’t look so I don’t know, plastic like like these other two. And then the smaller picture that you have here at the corner. The key here. It’s it’s another stock photo. So So we have two graphics one stock so let’s see is it how it’s put here? Is it here separately? Or it’s only just one? No it’s all just one okay so I cannot remove it I wanted to see how it looks like without these little tiny things. Okay digital marketers I will not go through the through the through the copy or abbreviated translators and content writers making it work for you. Okay, get started with I Lysa today trial period allows you to explore a license before buying that’s what we’re going to do very soon oops not right now. Okay to me I get the I get the spray gradient that’s how I’m going to call it but I don’t like it here I don’t know I don’t maybe I just don’t like the way it is here. It looks not that great. Is that actually an image or how did you do the background? Oh yeah, there’s a background Oh yeah. Can I turn it off? Can I give it color those the background is there there was a way how you can pick a color like crowns color let me put the fluff of and I think wait color picker There we go. Get started with Eliza I think to me of course you would change the button. Oh, what if we change it to the yellow one? Now I’m interested in this span. Do we have that’s a font? Is it the label? Is it this one? It’s right here. Let’s pick the yellow one

Andrej Zito 

Yeah, so to me like for the for the final call to action, I think and let’s not talk about okay if this is the right color for the button but to me the blue without the sprite gradient. I think it looks better. It looks bolder. So yeah, but both is my comment. And here we have the footer. And I saw blah blah blah This looks nice. Oh, I’m not sure if you can see it. Okay, I’m actually going to pull up the epic pen. I’m not sure if this is intentional. But or maybe I’m just not seeing this right. Okay, it looks like it’s a line somewhere it’s wait for canceling to do it’s more precisely. And I know exactly how because I was doing was just doing this just recently. We are we still live. There might be something that’s open. Okay. The way I’m going to do it is this way. Okay, this is my screenshot. And we’re going to put up a line

Andrej Zito 

it is somewhat aligned, but it looked a little bit off to me. So maybe I would maybe I would put it slightly higher carriers we are hiring. That’s nice. Okay, we have a boo Howver follow us on bom bom winked in I like it. I like it. And I like the I like the I like the background here. It’s the same. I like this one. But without the without the gradients which is like gray. It looks very nice. It reminds me of what does it remind me of? Something from real life? I don’t know whatever. One of I don’t think he did. I didn’t comment on cookies accept all cookies. I think even this thing is styled so it looks nice. All right. That’s the homepage. So let’s get started. So overall, if I had to summarize I really like it. The things that I mentioned, I think the main important thing for me is some of the copy. And for some things like this thing. I don’t even need to be a copywriter to say that. To me this looks off. Like I’m not sure if this is even correct English but of course you You want to do better than just correct English for your homepage and landing page? Yeah. Does it miss any sections? Like get customer customers would be good if you have them already. But yeah, that is that that’s the homepage. So let’s get started with the real work and the reason why summarize when I think about the homepage because it gives us a good expectations of what to what hopefully we’re going to get from the UI. But as you know, if you’ve seen previous reviews, sometimes it gets worse. Okay, so the sign up looks nice

Andrej Zito 

except for maybe the composition could be that it just was not set up to be nice, responsible. I think it’s nice. I mean, I think the forum is centered. Right, so we have space here. I think we have the same space here. So this is centered but it’s centered within this frame. So the only thing that bothers me is I don’t know the ratio between the the image and the rest of the think maybe again, this could be because I’m just used to seeing different things. But I don’t know why the image couldn’t be more because you don’t need that much whitespace around the form okay, let’s close this. Come on. Sign up email. I only need to provide email that’s pretty easy. By signing up I agree to unless it’s terms are you professional tracings or translator or agency offering services go to Elisa marketplace okay, there’s a different set up for that

Andrej Zito 

Okay, well let’s do this Andre position academy.com Continue okay name Jade out Andre calm tree okay, I’m usually when I start doing this I forget commenting on this but I really like the form so far. Like the the branding is still there. You can see the blue highlight on the active fields. That looks good. Let’s see if we can do a dummy password create my accounts. Yes, yes. Yes, we can. Okay, yeah, as you can see the images I don’t know how optimized they were but they were loading very slowly and at this point, I’m not even sure if it makes sense because at this point, I technically gave you my email address I sign up right but you are showing me now a different picture. Is it important that this part okay, verify your email address verification link has been sent to Andre Okay, so let me my stuff here and I have the being right here sure think I can show verify your account please confirm your email address I saw no reply okay verify your account will come to Eliza confirm so this is one thing I usually don’t pay that much attention to it but so far I like that everything was on brand this doesn’t seem that much on brand. I’m not sure if this is because of what I don’t know my settings or something but I think you should be able to set it up right so I don’t know like for example why why this is not blue. But I guess you know like many people don’t pay attention to the small things so I guess this fine verify account will come before we get started. Please confirm anyone does confirm if you did not initiate in us. Okay. Confirm. Where is it going to open in the other thing? I’m just going to copy the link and go back here

Andrej Zito 

okay, loading verified if it was just verification to Meeting, slow logging, again, another stock picture. See this time you have a very different layout composition. And I’m not sure why because this whole process of signing up and logging in, you technically just have this section for the form, right? Like the size of the fields doesn’t change when you sign up or when you log in. But now the composition is totally opposite. Like to me this, this makes more sense from the Louth perspective because you don’t need that much whitespace for this thing, this to me looks good. But of course, you have more stock images. And as you have seen, and it’s not like I’m somewhere in, I don’t know, insert a place where they have slow internet. I think I have a pretty, pretty good internet, but, like loading these large images, it’s, I don’t know, it looks lame to me. And again, the point is like, why do I need to see another different stock image like this? This guy like, okay, he’s, he’s a handsome guy in a suit. It has absolutely no relevance to logging in. So the same thing that I said before, like, if okay, we’re using some stock image then why do we need to change them? I already seen three different stock photos and they’re loading slowly. Okay. Login Andre. Localization got me calm password

Andrej Zito 

use a portrait. Okay. Now let’s see.

Andrej Zito 

Our are we going to see some more stock photos inside? Again, I feel like it’s loading slowly.

Andrej Zito 

Wondering why was stuck for so long? Because I have no projects. I have pretty much no data there, right? I don’t know. But I’ll leave it up to you. Okay, so first impression looks good. This thing here looks bad. I’m not sure if it’s the font that or if it’s the font weight, this doesn’t look very clear. It looks like it has like maybe some shadow or something. I’m not sure if you can see it. And again, welcome to Eliza. I mean, is that necessary? So is it necessary to tell me to welcome like, I can see that I look into the platform. Typically, when you have this, I don’t know if it’s called splash screen or something like that. But maybe if you have something like this that jumps at me when I first log in, maybe it would be it would make more sense to have it. If it tells me something about the platform, like how to get started or you have the in app tutorials. I believe that’s how it’s called. So to me, this makes no sense. The way it is right now is just welcoming me. I mean, it may be okay. For some people, they may feel like okay, they will come me they’re nice people. But the the main problem that I have with this is, again, the I mean, the composition or the layout, like everything is left aligned, which is fine. Why do we have so much space here? That doesn’t make sense to me? The question is, should it be at the bottom left, or if you just want to welcome you should be here. And if I see this here, which kind of looks like a pop up notification, I’m going to maybe expect that the pop up notifications, I’m not sure if we’re going to see them maybe that they will also be maybe on the left side. So if I’m going to see later on pop up notifications on the right side, I’m going to call it as an inconsistency even though they serve let’s say different purposes. So that’s that. So I’m going to say that thank you for welcoming me close get old. Now dashboard, active plan girl trial. I like these icons again, they’re on the brand that looks nice. You have not created any projects yet starting Now, subscribe. Okay. I think usually, again, I get the idea to the subscribe. Let’s say, I don’t know what box on the top, because obviously you want to turn people into paying customers. But many times when I see this, I think it’s maybe good to include the, you know, the X mark, to get rid of this. So let’s say I can use it through the trial without being, let’s say, constantly reminded that I need to subscribe. But that’s just my opinion. available credits to 1000s. Okay, it’s I guess it’s for empty. I don’t think I’ll be able to use it for people translation. But who knows? The layout everything, the colors, I think it looks beautiful. So the header is is on the blue. Everything there is white. The sidebar is nice. And then you have this, this background grayish on which the white cards I think it looks very, very good. Okay. Well, let’s look at the menu that we have here. Is this to hide it? Yep, it is. Wait, what was this? Okay. The animation is a little bit off when it expands. There’s like a huge jump, and it’s not very smooth. I’m not sure why. Dashboard. Okay, however, changes things. This thing? I’m not sure if the sub menu items should have a smaller font. It makes sense. I understand that. But maybe it shouldn’t be indent and the same size. Nothing wrong with this. It’s clear the hierarchy is clear. But I don’t know. Maybe it’s because everything is left aligned. To me, it looks disturbing. Okay, that’s the dashboard. Subscription. Why is the subscription on the top? That doesn’t make sense to me. It’s again, like okay, like, you need to subscribe to do something, I would put it somewhere else.

Andrej Zito 

Because during the trial, I first want to experience the platform, and then decide. So yeah, this is like, this is not the most important thing. I know, it’s the most important thing for for you. But maybe it can drive some people. Settings. Now, this is interesting. Well, all of these things here are there’s nothing about projects, where where are we going to see the projects? Is it that if I create a project, we’re going to get a new item hear me that’s confusing. You have settings here yet the the order here is weird. Subscribe first. And then you have settings with a click Settings. Oh, it doesn’t do anything because I have to click here. That’s another thing. So if this, let’s say that. Okay, I guess that you are still building it. And you’re going to add maybe more things under the settings. But if there’s only one thing, if I click it, like here, like I’m clicking and nothing happening, nothing’s happening. If there’s only one thing that I can go to, then if I click this, then it should automatically go to this one. I think settings, this looks very nice. The UI looks nice. Okay, I will not bother that much with this. Let’s just get into the project. You don’t have a team members add ons blah, blah, blah, what is here? Trans editor. What is that? Row? Okay, I just start creating a project. Start now. Trans editor. That’s interesting. Why is it on? So this is This to me is very confusing. Ah, I see. I don’t know why there’s a different subdomain for the user portal. And another one for the projects. That to me is very confusing. I don’t think I had ever seen anything like that. Like, why don’t I have one main interface and just one app that allows me to do both things. That’s pretty much standard, right? Like all of these things would be moved somewhere to here. And this thing would be or managing the projects this is confusing okay my projects I saw a lay sub projects yeah and this is as you can see inconsistent I’m not sure if you can see it as I’m as I switch between the two you can see that this one has this height this one is slightly higher also the font is slightly larger you can see how inconsistent it is in the header and just the fact that it’s a different I don’t know sub domain or however you want to call it that’s that’s not a valid reason to have it inconsistent and like I mentioned in the beginning, it should be just one thing. Like I don’t know app dot a license, calm alright. timezone UTC. That’s correct. Okay, so I just created projects. All right. See this? What is this think? Goes back to home I guess. ext all I see you can just write texts are okay. And have it translated files. So let’s do files. Are we doing good? Am I doing for these things? I think it used to be the darkest dungeon rights. Yes. Darkest Dungeon

Andrej Zito 

that’s okay. It still looks good. It’s it looks good. Like the whole is nice upload files. Drupal fires us or drop your files here or browse. recommended maximum words per file. 50k bigger files may lead to slow processing initially. supported file formats. XLS doc X. Okay, good. We have both. So I think I see that this one and the DLC. Bank. Is it already uploaded? I guess so. source language. Whoa, whoa, what is going on here?

Andrej Zito 

Okay, so this is this is the first time that I see implementation of choose your languages this way. They also had for target languages they do. It’s interesting. It’s something new for the thing that I don’t like is again, the animation. Animation is not I don’t know smooth. Actually, if you can see it on the stream. But let’s see if this actually works. So source language, I can search we have united, what is it just English. Okay, so again, maybe some people will be looking for, like English, United States, English, UK and so on. So I’m going English, okay. And target languages. Czech, German, Japan. Japanese. I mean, in a way, like this selection. You see everything all at once. And if you know where the locations are, you can easily just click it. I think it’s interesting. It’s not that bad as I thought it were, I think you cannot see because it’s behind my camera. I was gonna say that I don’t like this whitespace again here, but then I see that there is a button here. So make sense. Okay, I have to find the button. Okay. Three languages selected. Good. I think just in general, this could be made nicer with, you know, typical flags. Because it’s very, very plain, I would say, just like listening languages, although it’s still pretty usable, I would say or maybe I don’t know if it would make sense to organize it. I don’t know based on me to group it in a way based on I don’t know regions. Maybe it will make it more complicated because right now it’s very clearly ordered of medically, which makes it easy to find the language that one so maybe scratch the idea. Okay, machine translation engine. Who will translate let’s pick Amazon. Create. Do project creative successfully. Okay, IE does the word count? Or chicken name? Okay, so I created the project. But it put me back into the list of the projects. If I just created it doesn’t mean that I want to do something about the project, or do I do it from this? This view? Can I go somehow inside the project? With my projects, I am at my projects I guess. Okay, let’s see what we can do here. English to check. Yet to start. It looks like I can do something with this, but I don’t know what I can do, because I cannot. There is no URL associated with it. I guess it’s a JavaScript and there’s no tooltip to count why the word count doesn’t show up

Andrej Zito 

where what? Okay, right now, at this point, if I was just looking at this, I don’t know what to do. Because technically, I don’t want to open each individual file to get the machine translation. Okay, first thing that comes to my mind is just click this thing in do anything, what Wait, I think I get it like everything here because it just collapses the thing. Although this one are a sign, okay, so this one works. Okay, so the thing is with the tooltip, what?

Andrej Zito 

Now? I’m slightly confused. Okay, I assume that these are sort of like actions, but maybe they’re also headers, that’s what I would assume. Like if I assigned to someone that may be here, I would see the faces. But why can I not see the word count for each individual file. And you can see I haven’t expanded. If I click this, it shows me the word count, but it also collapses to think which is not what I want it to do. Right? I just want to see the word count. What does it mean? Sets? No. How’s it going memories we don’t need to do those things. It’s fine but how do I need to open each file individually opening edit the channel out the transition is coming in edit the transition and we have the tutorial added the translation confirm your translation click on the next segment and edit the translation confirm the translation select post edit files to download the outputs native New Shalash

Andrej Zito 

okay

Andrej Zito 

okay it’s pulling automatically

Andrej Zito 

I guess the assumption is that you will manually review the machine translation but I don’t understand why doesn’t automatically populated with the empty like you have to do it string by string because what I would at least in my case, which is not the the real use case I just want to confirm everything at once without having to go through it I don’t know I guess it technically speeds up the file preparation but then technically slows down each segment because it has to pull it for each one right Am I saying the right is there okay so for the editor how it looks like again, I think it looks good. The highlight of the active segment just the why I think it just standard but it looks so good. The placeholders or the tax are here again on brand So let me see how this thing here works. Whoa 23 people people on YouTube thank you confirm. Is there a shortcut? Can we see shortcuts somewhere? How to Edit and download? Oh, so this thing next next next next got it what else do we have here? Change Font Size I think the font size is fine whether replace concordance dictionaries references special characters is it supposed to be a toggle? Maybe I don’t have any special characters what do we have filter here? Wiltshire okay to confirm it. I think the UI looks good. Simple nice don’t even think to means about the whole workflow think empty confirmed. Yeah, I think I don’t know. I didn’t like the red thing here. But even if they confirm it, where did that come from? I did confirm it. Now it’s blue. Oh, now it’s I think okay

Andrej Zito 

I don’t know. Okay, I can I can live with that. Do I need to confirm everything? Or can I just don’t what can what else can you do here? What is this thing? The lead target segments at view comments, comments? Okay, sure. Can I turn it off? Because it’s behind my camera. I guess so. Okay. Oh, it’s actually at the bottom I didn’t see before. Oh, there’s like a progress bar two out of 12 segments. That’s nice. But I don’t see a way how to do board changes where I usually wait usually it’s Ctrl Enter. Now I didn’t do anything ctrl enter just goes into the next segment for some reason. Oh, wait, it did confirm. Wait, why is it because I have it wrong?

Andrej Zito 

Front because my tags are wrong. Confirm. Okay, it works. Actually sometimes. I don’t know why it didn’t work before. Ctrl Enter. See it didn’t do anything. I don’t know why. It looks sometimes it doesn’t register the changes that I do. Okay, Ctrl Enter. I just need to do it slower. Ctrl Enter the MP and let’s do two very fast one, two, and worked out in a way in order before Okay, so wait 11 out of 12 what we want 1-234-567-8910 1112 Everything is confirmed Why is it showing 11 out of 12 I don’t get it alone release maybe something with the with the Ajax Okay, so we have everything was edited file what do we want to do? Oh, oh, yeah, posterity file. I was like, what is that? Okay What

Andrej Zito 

what are you sink? What the fuck 1234567. Now it’s 12 out of 12. Okay, was edited file. Okay, and it shouldn’t be downloaded now. Now do I have anything Think dirty here. Nah. Tunisia, I think it looks good. So yeah, that’s that. I go back to my projects. How did the status change? In Progress? Okay, because I already open one file. This one is 100%. Now, let’s see, I don’t know German spreadsheet how it looks like. D LC? For sure, right? What is this blinking? Chat? What? Okay. Yeah, this part I don’t like the bag that the empty is coming in later check. Okay, I think that’s going to be pretty much it for my first try have a laser

Andrej Zito 

Wait, is there anything else that I used to do? No, the reason why I don’t want to do the audit false is because simply what I was saying before, is because I have to do everything manually. So if everything was already machine translated, and and the funny thing is that I don’t even know if there’s a way how you can download all the files. Let’s say you go through all the files. And let’s see any option here on the project level to download all the files from the projects that are already finished. So to me, that seems like a lot of manual work that you have to do. So that thing also the batch, let’s say confirmation of the of the translations. And the whole thing that the MT is coming in segment by segment. I think it’s slow. I also didn’t like this thing, the way this behaves. But otherwise, I mean, the UI looks clean. Are they used? How much they use? Whatever. So that’s that. I think we are done. One thing that I want to say is when I uploaded the files, I didn’t like these icons. I don’t think it’s it’s the UI. I’m not sure if this is some default thing, how to what icons to use for the Office files. But yeah, it’s even from somewhere else. Yeah, but I don’t. Not that it’s a big thing. But like the rest of your UI, at least inside the app is not gradient, I think the gradient just doesn’t fit. That’s my comment. So to wrap it up, once again, homepage, good. Copy needs some. Although the changes, I will say even though I’m not an expert, signing signup login process is the whole thing with the stock image. That wasn’t good. And even if it was working. I mean, even if it was, like nicely laid out, it still was loading very slowly. The images were coming slowly. The UI looks super clean. I like it. But the whole fact that you start with the user portal, and then you have to open another thing, to to work on your projects. To me, that’s very confusing. And like I was just saying the whole thing about batch. I don’t know, batch confirmation batch download. Like how if he I don’t know, if I’m doing a project into, I don’t know, 20 languages. This would be insane to do it manually. So yeah, I think that’s going to be it. Nobody in the chat is saying anything. You guys are just watching. So thank you very much for your time, hopefully. What time is it? 1003. Okay, one hour. That’s good. I like it. I like it. It has potentially just need some some time to men’s here and there. So that was my first experience with a laser or AI Lisa, not sure how to say that. If you enjoyed this video on this live stream, make sure you give it a like and subscribe if you want to see more.
