We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.
TransClick and ChatStat Join Forces to Create the First Client Interaction and IM Aggregator That Can Translate Many Languages on the Fly in Simultaneous Text Conversations
http://www.ChatStat.com and http://www.TransClick.com
NEW YORK and SAN DIEGO, April 4 /PRNewswire/ -- TransClick Inc and ChatStat Technologies, Inc, today announced the availability of the first ever "Live Chat" and "Instant Messaging" language translation mash up. The application expands a user's ability to communicate in real time using as many as 16 major languages and over 120 vertical market dictionaries at the click of a button to deliver highly accurate translations.
Through this unique solution, language translation is now available during all text based communications. Examples of its use include web visitors chatting with operators, inter-company secured instant messaging, and instant messenger buddy to buddy chat. ChatStat and TransClick have together produced a universal language messenger that is also a full featured "Customer Interaction System." This system provides business class "live chat" services including live chat support across multiple sites simultaneously, "Skype Call Back" from a web page, live chat and VoIP for eBay users or directly from an email signature. In addition, the service also offers free web statistics using an innovative technology called "Moving Graph" which shows your data analytics graphs in motion.
To round off the application the service also supports AIM, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, Jabber, GoogleTalk, and Skype instant messengers. This means that you can have buddies from all of these messengers appear in ChatStat simultaneously and chat with any of them regardless of the messenger they use or language that they speak.
This exciting new service is delivered as part of a co-marketing and development agreement between the two companies. TransClick, Inc. has licensed a private label version of the ChatStat CIS and will market the combined solution as the TransClick Global Messenger to its target customers. ChatStat will also offer the TransClick real time translation service as a feature on Demand in the ChatStat offering.
"This solution for TransClick delivers on our mission of leveraging the best language technologies to translate messages within a live chat environment, for both buyers of goods and services on the internet, as well as instant messenger buddies that do not necessarily speak the same language," said Robert Levin, CEO and founder of TransClick, Inc. "Launching this new product is very exciting to us because of its simplicity and convenience to TransClick users. The installation process is very simple, and very cost effective."
Real-time machine translation is currently available in: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Farsi, Hebrew, Korean, Polish, Russian, Turkish and Ukrainian.
Nick Matina, founder of ChatStat says, "Imagine a live chat operator being able to provide intelligible technical support or customer service in up to sixteen languages with three or four people in different chat windows, one maybe a web visitor, one maybe an IM buddy. People from all over the world can use this language translation system to communicate freely and without the limitations placed on us by our native tongue."
