Smartcat versus Smartling

Smartcat enables your team to create, translate, and localize every course element—text, images, video, and documents—in a single, automated workflow. No more fragmented processes or manual asset handling. With Smartcat, all content is managed together, enabling real-time collaboration and accelerating global rollout. Smartling’s approach is limited to translation management, requiring additional tools and steps to achieve full content localization.

Smartcat’s expert-enabled AI Agents are designed for context-aware translation and content creation. They learn from every team correction and expert review, leveraging glossaries, translation memory, and domain-specific engines to maintain your brand voice and terminology. With every project, Smartcat’s AI Agents evolve, ensuring quality and consistency improve over time—delivering results beyond what’s possible with Smartling’s traditional workflows.

Scale your review process instantly with Smartcat’s integrated marketplace of over 500,000 expert linguists and subject-matter reviewers. Assign, review, and pay for work directly within the platform—no vendor management headaches or external contracts. This flexibility lets you deliver quality at scale, without building out a dedicated localization department. Smartling users must manage external vendors and processes separately.

With Smartcat, you update content once and changes are instantly propagated across all languages and formats. Only the new or updated content is retranslated, saving time and resources. Direct LMS integrations keep every course version current and compliant—automatically. Smartling requires manual coordination for updates and lacks true end-to-end automation.
