Unified Job Submission
Unified Job Submission is LILT’s new streamlined, intelligent workflow automation within the platform that removes the guesswork from translation job submission. This completely reimagined, easy-to-navigate job submission experience empowers every user to self-serve with confidence. It automatically detects uploaded file types, routes to appropriate translation workstreams, applies the right models, and guides users through job submission steps.
Additional resources
Job-Level Custom Properties
The Job Form Editor allows you to customize your job submission experience with organization-wide custom job properties. This feature enables you to capture important metadata, such as billing codes, department information, PO numbers, or job identifiers, at the job level, ensuring consistent data collection across your organization.
Secure file delivery
The Secure File Delivery feature allows you to deliver files that require post-processing (such as Desktop Publishing, multimedia files, or other manually processed content) directly to customers through LILT, maintaining data security and compliance. As part of this release, LILT has made a change to automatically deliver files. Once all documents in a project are marked done, the project will be automatically marked as Done and Delivered.- This will trigger a delivery email to the customer for the project (language) that was delivered.
- Once all projects within a job are marked as Done/Delivered, then the Job will automatically move to the Done/Delivered status.
Detect & redact sensitive data (PII)
LILT automatically detects and flags Personally Identifiable Information (PII) in segments, giving linguists full control to confirm or exclude it. Flagged segments are kept out of customers’ translation memories and AI training data, while sensitive information is automatically redacted in final exports, ensuring compliance and eliminating the risk of accidental data exposure.
Webhooks for Instant Translation Alerts
LILT’s architecture now includes webhooks for instant file translations (completed & failed), providing a robust foundation for seamless automation. Receive notifications for instant translated files to keep your global projects moving at the speed of business. Additional resourcesSalesforce Commerce Cloud Connector

As part of this change:- The Domain selector has been moved to the Breadcrumb navigation from the User Profile.
- The currently selected Domain/Org name is displayed in full (no abbreviations or single letters) within the breadcrumb.
-
Clicking the current domain name should trigger a dropdown menu, which sorts Domains in alphabetical order and includes a search input field to filter the list of domains (essential for large lists).

AI QA
AI QA is an agentic quality assurance feature that detects and helps resolve translation issues before delivery. It reduces reliance on external QA tools, speeds up review, and improves end quality with an AI-driven check aligned to industry QA practices.- AI QA is an in-workflow step for linguists and reviewers that integrates with LILT’s existing UI for segment level QA, batch QA, and subtitling QA checks.
- AI QA has been proven to result in fewer missed errors and fewer false positives than traditional, script-based QA checks, based on LILT internal evaluations and linguist preference polling.
AI Review - AI-optimized workflows
We’re introducing AI Review Segment-Optimization, a new workflow that combines AI Review with machine learning to deliver faster, more cost-effective translations without compromising quality. In this workflow:- Segments are automatically evaluated after AI Review using LILT’s proprietary ML Segment Prioritization model.
- Segments identified as error-free are automatically confirmed, accepted, and locked at the Review stage, allowing your linguistic team to focus only on content that needs human attention.
- AI Review
- Enabling AI Review workflows (see AI optimization section)
Additional AI Review Provider - Anthropic Claude
The default provider for AI Review workflows is LILT Contextual AI, however, Anthropic Claude can now be configured as an alternative provider. To change your provider, please review the AI Provider configuration for your org.
Separate Secondary Review assignment email
Previously, we used the same email template for both Review and Secondary Review assignments, which confused Secondary Reviewers who saw unnecessary data and information. There is now a separate assignment email for the Secondary Review stage that is tailored to the customer role and removes mentions of Linguist Contractor agreements, payment support links, and time-bound notifications.Improved TMX export experience
LILT invested time this month to improve the TMX export process, to make it significantly faster and more reliable.

Read more about PDF Translation.Quoting
LILT now offers a versatile quoting system to provide cost transparency before translation work begins. This is particularly valuable for enterprises managing budgets across departments, organizations with tight spending controls, or when working with complex multimedia content that requires specialized handling like desktop publishing (DTP) or localization enginering. The two types of quoting LILT offers are:- Instant quoting for processable file types, which automatically generates cost estimates based on word count and language pair pricing defined in their contract before submitting jobs.
- For more complex projects, Formal quoting allows customers to submit files and receive a quote prepared by LILT’s production team, where quotes need approval from the submitter before work begins. These projects may be for processable or non-processable file types, and may include manual processing or text extraction.
