Ollama on your own computer (nothing leaves it), OpenAI-compatible APIs, Anthropic Claude API, DeepL API with your own key, or translation memory only.
The formats are implemented from the vendors' documentation and the structure of their export files, and tested on files built to that structure. Import into a copy of your project first. Machine translation can be wrong: safety texts must be reviewed by a person fluent in the language before commissioning.
