Frequently asked questions

What is the AI translation tool for IT & software development?
Of the 4 tools we track for IT & software development, Crowdin has the strongest published GDPR profile. Also check price and whether there is a free trial.
May I use confidential data in IT & software development?
Source code is trade secret and intellectual property. Check whether AI coding assistants store your code or use it for model training (an opt-out or business plan is required). Use on-premises or privacy-compliant variants for sensitive projects. AI-generated code sometimes contains security vulnerabilities or errors, so always have a developer review it, especially production code.
How is this order determined?
Based on the GDPR profile the provider publishes, then the free trial, public pricing and features. Nobody pays for a place.
