Hansem Global evaluated several options and selected EPIC as the best fit for large-scale client documentation projects. However, our experience shows that no single solution can meet every on-site requirement. To provide both global credibility and practical, project-specific quality control, we operate two complementary MTQE solutions: EPIC and our internally developed Hansem Global’s internal AIQE Tool.

What EPIC Delivers

EPIC is an internationally recognized MTQE platform that supports large-volume translation projects with automatic scoring and routing. Key features include:

• Segment-level quality scoring – Each translation segment receives an automatic QE score, allowing rapid identification of “approve as is” versus “human post-editing required.”
• Auto-approval and human routing – Segments above a set threshold can be auto-approved while others are sent directly to editors (though full automation is still limited in practice).
• High-volume processing – Efficient handling of hundreds of thousands of words per project.
• Data-driven cost forecasts – Objective metrics help estimate human post-editing needs and provide cost-saving evidence to clients.

At the current stage, EPIC is most valuable as a decision-support indicator for reviewers rather than a full replacement for human effort.

How Hansem Global’s Internal AIQE Tool Adds Value

While EPIC ensures compliance with global standards, Hansem Global’s internally developed solution focuses on client-specific and domain-specific quality control:

• Custom rule validation – Automatically checks project rules such as “Do not translate product names or hashtags” or “Apply only the approved warning-statement format.”
• Pre-screening for recurring issues – Detects terminology gaps, semantic distortions, or sentence-splitting errors that typically appear in certain industries.
• Automated translator testing – Scores hundreds of test translations by error type (omission, mistranslation, style inconsistency) and severity (minor/major/critical) to support objective pass/fail decisions.
• Training and feedback generation – Creates training materials and feedback reports based on frequently detected error patterns, improving translator performance over time.
• Cost optimization – Provides a cost-effective alternative to commercial MTQE APIs for internal QA or large-scale translator testing.

This tailored approach reflects each client’s unique requirements and extends quality control into translator management and training.

A Practical Dual Approach

MTQE is becoming an industry standard, but no single solution can satisfy every business case.

• EPIC provides internationally validated quality metrics and gives clients the confidence that their content meets global benchmarks.
• Hansem Global’s internal tool delivers the project-specific, actionable checks needed for real-world production.

By combining these two solutions, Hansem Global ensures global credibility and on-site effectiveness, offering measurable quality improvements and cost savings to our clients.
