DeepL Integration
Add high-quality DeepL machine translation suggestions to your translation workflow.
DeepL is known for producing high-quality, natural translations-making it a favorite among language professionals. With DeepL connected to Awtomated, you can offer linguists high-quality suggestions that match your tone and content type more closely.
You can apply DeepL to full projects, specific segments, or as a fallback when no match is found in your TM. It’s particularly useful for marketing, product, and editorial content where fluency and readability matter.
What You Get with DeepL Integration
- Get context-aware suggestions in the Editor
- Improve quality of pre-translated drafts, especially for marketing content
- Customize usage per client, content type, or language pair
- Speed up delivery without compromising tone or clarity
- Let translators work faster without sacrificing quality

How the DeepL integration works
- Get an API key from your DeepL account.
- In Awtomated, open Settings › Machine Translations and choose the DeepL tab.

- In the editor, linguists choose DeepL from the engine menu in the toolbar and pre-translate the file.
Who it is for
- Marketing, product and editorial teams where fluent, natural wording matters.
- Linguists who want a strong first draft to post-edit instead of translating from scratch.
- Project managers who want to give translators a faster starting point on large files.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need my own DeepL account?
Yes. DeepL is connected with your own API key, which you add under Settings › Machine Translations. You stay in control of the key and can edit or delete it whenever you need to.
Can linguists choose between DeepL and Microsoft Translator?
Yes. If you configure both engines, linguists can pick the one they want for each file from the toolbar in the editor.
Why can I not see DeepL in the editor?
An engine only appears in the editor when its API key is set under Settings › Machine Translations. If a linguist cannot find the option, check there first.
Should I use translation memory or DeepL first?
Run your translation memory first, so everything you have translated before comes back exactly as agreed. Then machine-translate what is left. Doing it the other way round lets the engine overwrite segments your memory already answered correctly.
