Generic AI knows languages, Lara knows your language

Not a chatbot. Not a generic engine. A specialist.

General AI knows every language but no industry, and translation AI is blind to your terminology. Lara is a Domain-Specific Language Model (DSLM): an LLM specialized in translation. Unlike generative AI, it doesn’t generate new text or invent new concepts: it transforms your text into another language. That’s why it isn’t subject to hallucinations, and is far more precise.

Enterprise plans add data residency, SSO, and an uptime SLA.

Lara 3 is the latest generation of Lara, an LLM exclusively specialized in translation. It is the first translation AI trained by experience instead of imitation: it practices, gets reviewed by a judge built on how professional translators evaluate translations, and refines its choices. It adds image and audio translation, Lara Think for regulated content, Lara Prosa for brand voice, and unlimited users on team plans.

In double-blind tests on 16,800 translations reviewed by professional translators, Lara 3 ranked first in every domain tested: 81% approval on the WMT 2025 public benchmark versus 80% for the best frontier LLM, 73% for DeepL and 66% for Google Translate, with double-digit leads in technology and finance.

General-purpose chatbots translate fluently but start from zero every time: no glossaries, no translation memory, no document formatting, and no guarantee your data stays out of model training. Lara is a dedicated professional translation platform: it learns your terminology, keeps quality consistent at scale, translates about 23× faster than frontier LLMs, and is independently evaluated by professional linguists.

Lara combines the highest measured translation quality with capabilities the others don’t offer together: native translation memories and glossaries that adapt output to your business, explanations for its translation choices, Lara Think and Lara Prosa modes, professional human review on demand, and ISO 17100 certification, the professional translation standard.

Lara has a free plan, no credit card required. Paid plans are consumption-based: you pay only for the source characters you translate, never for generated output, context, memories or glossaries, with one allowance shared across text, documents, images and audio. Team plans include unlimited users at no per-user cost, and enterprise plans offer custom volume commitments. Current plans are at laratranslate.com/pricing.

Yes, with unlimited users at no extra cost on team plans. Your whole organization shares one allowance, plus translation memories, glossaries and style guides with role-based permissions: only designated users edit language assets, while the resulting terminology applies to everyone.

Yes. Through Translated’s global network you can measure AI quality on your own content, escalate critical documents to multi-level professional review, and feed every validated translation back into your translation memory, so the investment pays off on every future job.
