Lingvanex

A phone photo of a street sign, a recorded voice memo or a scanned contract can each come out in another language through Lingvanex.

Lingvanex is a machine translation and speech recognition service that translates text, documents, audio and images into 100+ languages.

Developers get translation APIs and SDKs for iOS, Android, Mac OS and Windows.

The company also sells on-premise machine translation, which keeps the engine on your own servers instead of someone else's cloud.

That matters for legal, healthcare, government and defense work, where documents are sensitive.

If you would rather not write code, ready-made translators exist for PC, Slack, browsers and mobile devices.

The company points to secure communication, customer support, regulatory compliance, business intelligence and forensic and e-discovery work as its focus.

Industries it lists include finance, education, manufacturing, marketing, media, retail, software and travel.

The range is wide, so expect to spend some time deciding which Lingvanex product fits your setup.
