Swindon Borough Council, GB Amazon Translate Document
Complete
The council's Emerging Technologies and Paediatric Therapy Service teams sought a cost-effective method for communicating in 100 languages. Swindon tested machine-learning systems with evaluations conducted by volunteer translators. The Amazon Translate platform was used to create a translation tool with an average processing time of 14 minutes instead of 12 days using agency translators. Borough officials expanded the tool's use to other departments for more accessible public documents.
