PROMT Translation Server on AOL Reference portal

Smart Link Corporation and PROMT (www.e-promt.com) - the leading providers of innovative multilingual technologies – announced that AOL has chosen ImTranslator powered by PROMT® Translation Server for AOL Reference portal (http://reference.aol.com/translator). Unlike other translation services, the new AOL Translator distinguishes by not only unprecedented translation quality provided by the PROMT® Translation Server, but also advanced ImTranslator tools, such as multilingual Spell-checker, Virtual Keyboard, Russian language Decoder.

PROMT’s high quality of translation and large dictionary size has been pivotal in contributing to its swift adoption by end users and industry. Smart Link Corporation, an official partner of PROMT in US since 1994, was the first to introduce this technology to US market.
The project with AOL is not the first instance of PROMT translation technology’s success on the US market. In autumn 2005 NASA has installed PROMT® translation systems onboard of the International Space Station and on astronauts’ mobile PCs.

“One of the key targets of our company is enabling the users around the globe to have easy communication with each other, with our software being the bridge between the people of different cultures and languages. PROMT software is the reference in Machine Translation industry for its quality, and we are pleased the AOL Reference portal users are now able to benefit from it”, - Ilia Klimakov, Director for Overseas Markets, PROMT, said.

“We are very pleased to incorporate our multilingual solution in AOL’s Reference portal. It is our goal to help online audiences communicate with ease. As the Web changes and evolves so do its users. It is no longer viable to have your users look up words, spell check and translate – each on a different site. Our centralized hub of tools provides a very comfortable environment for the users and this is what appealed to AOL“, - Igor Rashnitsov said, Head of Marketing, Smart Link.
