Summary

Supervertaler Workbench is a free standalone CAT tool that combines AI translation with traditional computer-assisted translation workflows. It supports AI translation, batch translation, chat, prompts, image context, and AI proofreading, with Ollama available for local models. Listed providers include OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Mistral AI, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Ollama, and custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints. Translation tools include fuzzy matching, TMX import, and concordance search; terminology features include termbases, automatic term highlighting, and TermLens. Workbench handles DOCX and TXT, with additional formats through Okapi, including IDML, HTML, XLIFF, PO, XLSX, and PPTX. Documentation describes exchange workflows for memoQ, Trados Studio, Phrase, and CafeTran. Documents, termbases, and translation memories stay on the user's machine; AI requests go to the selected provider when an AI action is triggered. With Ollama, processing stays local. It runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows and supports offline desktop use. The product is no longer actively developed, though its maker says genuine bugs may still be fixed and releases still go out.
