AI automations for the translation industry

For operations whose structures justify the engineering.

The translation industry runs on small, repetitive workflow problems: file routing, format conversion, segment alignment, terminology checking, glossary updates, status reporting. We build automations for our own operation and adapt them for clients on demand. The work is small, fast, and almost always pays for itself within months.

R.I.M.A. (Reason-Informed Machine-Assisted translation) is our proprietary translation-management system, developed in-house to support our own end-to-end delivery workflows. It is designed around an Expert-at-the-Core approach, with clearly defined accountability, structured audit trails, and terminology governance integrated throughout the process.

AI governance in translation

For enterprises asked to defend their AI exposure to risk.

A documented framework covering where you deploy machine translation, where LLM-assisted revision is acceptable, where post-editing levels sit, where human-only workflows are required, and what audit trail is preserved.

Two uses. Internally, as the basis on which our delivery is run. Externally, as the basis of a LangOps governance review for a client’s own operation. The deliverable is a written framework you own and can show to a regulator.

Available as a four-stage engagement (discovery, pilot, framework, compounding), productised as our LangOps governance offer; details on enquiry.

Prompt engineering

For teams that need the same terminology in every language, on every job.

Terminology adherence in LLM-assisted revision. Register control across language pairs. AI-assisted translation grounded in your own termbases and translation memories. The interesting work is rarely the prompt itself; it’s the data the prompt sits on top of, and the evaluation framework that tells you when it is working.

Pharos AI Factory

RIMA has been given sandbox access as an SME within the Pharos Hub, the EU-supported sandbox for advanced AI compute. When the access is taken up it will carry evaluation and development of AI-assisted translation systems on infrastructure that meets European data-governance standards from the start, rather than being retrofitted to them later.

Language_Tech Patras

The annual meeting we organise in Patras for people doing serious work in language technology (industry, academia, public sector) in one room, once a year. Set up in 2023 and the first of its kind in Greece. Hosted by RIMA ΑΜΚΕ (our non-profit arm), in collaboration with our language services studio, Rhyme&Reason. Past editions: 2023, 2024, 2025.
