Translate quotes and sales correspondence between EU languages
Translates quotes, follow-ups and customer emails between EU languages on EU hardware you control, applying your own glossary of product terms.
- How it works
- The large model translates outgoing quotes, follow-ups and product descriptions — and inbound customer emails — between the EU languages your customers use, applying a glossary of your product terms that you maintain. It runs on hardware in an EU data centre, so quote contents and prices stay on infrastructure you control rather than going to a third-party translation service.
- Data you need
- The source text and a glossary of your product and industry terms — a two-column spreadsheet is enough, and most firms can write one in an afternoon. A few past translated documents help it match your usual register.
- What to expect
- Good working translation, not certified translation. Quality is stronger for widely spoken EU languages and weaker for smaller ones, and the glossary is applied by instruction, not enforced — the model can occasionally ignore a term or inflect it wrongly, so spot-check terminology. Legal nuance is precisely where machine translation quietly fails, and if nobody in the company reads the target language, errors in outbound text go unnoticed.
- Where people stay involved
- Anything contractually binding — terms and conditions, warranty wording, legal clauses, prices restated in words — needs a human speaker or professional translator to sign off. Routine outbound correspondence should get a native-speaker skim where you have one. Inbound translation is lower-risk, since a misreading usually surfaces in the reply.

Hardware only, third-party prices from 2026-07. The figure excludes the KV cache, which grows with context length and how many people use it at once — sized properly in a conversation, not guessed here. Renting by the token is cheaper up front; why our customers still self-host is below.
Reading a long document whole
No benchmark measures this
No current benchmark ranks today's open models here. HELMET showed that the popular test — finding a planted sentence — predicts nothing, and its own table has not been rerun on 2026 models.
So we do not show a chart here. We measure it on your own content, in the first week, and you see the result before anything ships.
Sticking to the document
Measured on public documents, by a model acting as judge. Read it beside the answer rate: the lowest hallucination rates on this board belong to models that simply decline more often.

The API is cheaper per token. Here is why our customers don't use it.
We will not pretend otherwise: renting a model by the token from a serverless API costs less per million tokens than a card we run for you. We show that price on every use-case page. What it does not include is the part a shop with a customer database actually pays for.
- 01
Your data never leaves hardware you can point at
A serverless "we don't retain your data" is a clause in a contract. Running the model on a card in Amsterdam is a fact of architecture: your catalogue, tickets and customer records are never sent to a third party at all. For a GDPR audit, that is the difference between a promise and a floor plan.
- 02
The price cannot move without your say-so
A serverless rate card is somebody else's lever. The provider can raise the price, retire the model, or change the terms, and your cost moves with it. The same model on the same card costs the same next year — you own the number.
- 03
The model cannot be taken away
Hosted APIs deprecate models on their own schedule; the one you built on can be gone in a quarter. An open-weight model on your own hardware runs for as long as you keep the lights on. No vendor can end-of-life it out from under you.
And the price gap closes with volume: past a card you keep busy — very roughly four billion tokens a month — owning is cheaper outright, even before the three reasons above.
Getting a case like this one from a conversation to production takes about two months, and you can stop at the end of any phase.
