Smartcat connects linguists, companies, and agencies to streamline the translation of any content into any language, on demand. Our platform puts your translation process on autopilot, from content creation to payments. The plugin allows you to set up an integration between your WPML-enabled WordPress site and Smartcat. The integration itself is configured in Smartcat. Once configured, it will automatically pull translatable content from your website to Smartcat, where you can translate it with your own linguists or the ones you pick from our Marketplace. Alternatively, you can use the power of machine translation and post-edit just the most important pages to reduce translation costs. Once your content is translated, Smartcat will push it back to WordPress, instantly publishable in the target language(s) of choice.
