Overview

Lengoo develops custom neural machine-translation models trained on clients' documents, websites and translator feedback to deliver enterprise-grade translations. The platform uses an automated training pipeline and measures quality by “correction distance,” the edits humans make to model output. Lengoo emphasizes speed and specificity, claiming its models can be about three times faster than Google or DeepL in some tasks. The company plans to revamp its tech stack to create a more responsive neural MT framework that updates segment-by-segment to incorporate recent corrections more quickly. It intends to keep humans in the loop while reducing their workload and improving translation consistency. A recent $20M B round will fund expansion into North America and additional European markets and deeper enterprise integrations. lengoo provides an AI-first translation platform that automates the custom-training of neural machine translation systems for enterprise customers. The platform enables professional translations in more than 400 language combinations. Over 3,000 business clients, including major European enterprises and unicorns, use lengoo’s technology. The company is Berlin, Germany-based and was founded in 2014 in Karlsruhe by Philipp Koch-Büttner, Christopher Kränzler, and Alexander Gigga. lengoo intends to use the funds to continue to expand operations and its business reach.
