Processing Stages

A 13-stage pipeline structures every document before translation.

Any format in

PDF, DOCX, PPTX, and TXT — parsed structurally before a single word is translated.

OCR & formulas

Scanned pages and mathematical notation detected and preserved automatically.

Glossary control

Your terminology enforced consistently across every page and document.

Enterprise security

AES-256, SOC 2 Type II, SSO, and data residency — never used to train models.

Why Babel

Translation that respects your documents

Most tools flatten your PDF into a blob of text. Babel keeps it whole — every spatial relationship, visual hierarchy, and shade of meaning intact — so what you get back is the document you sent, just in a new language.

Format Preservation

Your translated PDF looks exactly like the original.

Every table, chart, image, header, footer, and page layout survives translation intact — just in a different language. No reformatting, no manual cleanup, no wasted hours.

Tables intact

Every cell, border, and merged column stays exactly in place.

Visuals preserved

Charts, images, and vector graphics reconstructed, not flattened.

Page geometry

Headers, footers, and layout match the source down to the pixel.

Terminology Control

Your terminology, enforced everywhere.

Upload custom glossaries to enforce precise translations for legal, medical, financial, and technical terms — consistently across every document.

Legal & medical

Domain-specific terms translated the way your field requires.

Always consistent

The same source term resolves identically on every page.

Bring your own

Upload existing glossaries and apply them instantly.

Enterprise Ready

Built for regulated industries.

SOC 2 Type II compliance, AES-256 encryption, SSO integration, and data residency in the US, EU, or APAC — from healthcare and finance to legal and government.

Encrypted

AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, SOC 2 Type II compliant.

SSO integration

Plug into your identity provider for seamless access control.

Data residency

Choose US, EU, or APAC to meet your jurisdiction's rules.
