Commercial Machine-Translation Products

TranSphere. http://www.apptek.com/products/transphere.html. Applications Technology, Inc. (AppTek). Includes an API for programmatic control of translation engines.

Direct-API. http://www.worldlingo.com/products_services/develop-ment_tools.html. WorldLingo Translations, LLC. Has an HTTP-based API for programmatic control of a translation engine. It works by sending an HTTP GET request (which includes your password parameter) to the WorldLingo server, which returns an HTTP HTML response. It is much like the HTML screen scraping examples in Chapter 9, "Machine Translation," except that the interface is much leaner and WorldLingo has a duty to maintain compatibility.

e-Translation Server. http://www.linguatec.de/products/firm/index_en.shtml. Linguatec Language Technologies. Has an HTTP-based API for programmatic control of a translation engine.
