FAQs

What does the Smartcat Document Agent do?

The Smartcat Document Agent is your always-on AI teammate for multilingual document creation at scale. It automates the entire lifecycle—from ingesting and generating content to translating, adapting, reviewing, and publishing—all within one platform. Whether you're working with DOCX, PPTX, PDFs, or structured formats like HTML or XLIFF, Document Agent processes your files instantly and transforms them into high-quality, localized outputs.

Unlike traditional tools, Document Agent doesn’t just translate, it also understands your brand voice, compliance requirements, and terminology. Document Agent continuously learns from your internal data and human-in-the-loop feedback. You can activate the agent directly inside Smartcat, brief it like you would a human colleague, and even manage requests through Smartcat’s in-platform Agent Assistant.

The result? High-quality publishing, powered by AI Agents that grow smarter with every project.

How do I use the Agents on the Smartcat platform?

You can activate and work with AI Agents directly within the platform, transforming what was once a series of disconnected tasks into a fully automated, end-to-end content workflow.   Instead of switching between tools, you will be able to:

  • Upload content (e.g., documents, web pages, training materials).

  • Trigger an AI Agent that is trained on their domain-specific data and institutional knowledge.

  • Assign tasks like translation, adaptation, or publishing to these Agents—similar to how you'd brief an agency or a teammate, but instantly and at scale.

  • Use “Ask Cat,” the AI Copilot, to coordinate and instruct Agents using natural language commands.

  • Monitor progress and quality in one place, with human-in-the-loop review improving every future interaction.

  • Publish or export content directly to integrated systems like a CMS or LMS, with just one click.

Smartcat no longer just offers tools. It provides fully capable AI-powered teammates that handle content creation, localization, and publishing at scale. What used to require agencies, coordination, and repetitive manual steps now becomes an intelligent, automated process inside a single platform.

What documents does Document Agent support?

Smartcat’s Document Agent supports a wide range of formats used across enterprise teams, including DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, ODT, PDF, HTML, XML, CSV, XLIFF, and JSON. 

Whether you're working with internal training manuals, product documentation, compliance reports, or marketing materials, the Document Agent ensures your content stays structured, styled, and ready for global publishing, no matter the format. Review the full list of support file formats.
