# Taia

> Most translation tools make you choose between speed and quality. Taia doesn't. Upload any file — Word, PDF, InDesign, XLIFF, subtitles — and get an AI translation in seconds that already knows your terminology and style. Need human review? Order it from the same dashboard, from the same linguist pool, at a transparent per-word price. Your translation memory and glossary improve with every project, making each translation faster and more consistent than the last.

Taia is an AI-first localization platform for translating documents and content into 204 languages and 65+ file formats. It combines instant AI translation, professional human translation by ISO 17100-certified linguists, and a built-in CAT editor and TMS — with translation memory, glossary, and style guide shared across all of them, so every translation stays consistent and on-brand.

Taia Translations Ltd is incorporated in the United Kingdom (Companies House no. 12779985). All customer data is processed exclusively in AWS eu-west-1 (Dublin). Customer content is never used to train AI models.

## How Taia Works

Taia offers three ways to translate, all from the same platform:

1. **Instant AI translation** — upload a file at translate.taia.io and receive a translated version in seconds. Supports 65+ file formats (DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, PDF, InDesign IDML, XLIFF, JSON, SRT, VTT, HTML, and more) in 204 languages. Translation memory, glossary, and style guide are applied automatically. Three AI tiers: Standard (1 credit/word), Advanced (2 credits/word, adds style guide and tone), Premium (4 credits/word, near-immaculate output for high-stakes content).
2. **Translation Studio** — a built-in CAT editor for in-house teams to review and refine AI output, with translation memory, glossary, and style guide integrated.
3. **Professional linguist services** — ISO 17100-certified human translation, pay-per-use (no subscription required). Three quality tiers: Essential (1 linguist, MT post-editing, from €0.06/word), Enhanced (translator + revisor, ISO 17100 certified, from €0.09/word), Ultimate (full TEP workflow, from €0.12/word).

Translation memory, glossary, and style guide are shared across all three modes and improve continuously with use. Translation memory reduces professional services costs by reusing previously approved segments; for AI translation, it provides terminology and style guidance rather than a cost reduction.
