ALT Card: The State of Translation Automation 2026, Intento annual industry report, previously The State of Machine Translation. 57 AI models and MT engines, 229 different solutions, 10 translation quality requirements, 100 target languages.
ALT Card: solution complexity ladder from the 2026 benchmark, State of Translation Automation 2026, eight levels with the simplest at the bottom. 1, off-the-shelf NMT: an MT model as is. 2, adjusted NMT: native parameters such as glossary and formality. 3, off-the-shelf LLM: an LLM with a translation prompt. 4, adjusted LLM: RAG for dynamic business context. 5, fine-tuned models, NMT and LLM: not in the 2026 benchmark. 6, two-step solution: NMT or LLM, then automatic post-editing. 7, multi-step: translate, LQA gate, bounded repair. 8, multi-agent systems: agents that own different requirements cooperate. Each level adds context and usually costs more to build, run and maintain.
ALT Card: 10 translation requirements from the 2026 benchmark, State of Translation Automation 2026, in three levels.

Standard, for every company, with its own rules: 2, terminology, 3, tone of voice, 4, tags, 5, Unicode character integrity, 6, locale conventions, 7, HTML entities, 8, valid JSON, 9, spacing at tag boundaries. Advanced, for some companies and use cases: 10, gender neutrality.
