Review editor. Your corrections carry over to your next translations
The review editor is the CAT (computer-assisted translation) tool built into Corrext. It shows your document sentence by sentence: the original on the left, the translation on the right. You correct, then you confirm. Each correction is stored in memory and reused in your next translations.

What the review editor does, exactly
A CAT tool splits the document into segments. A segment is a sentence or a heading. You review each segment against its original, correct it if needed, then confirm it.
Review
Two columns
The original on the left, the translation on the right, segment by segment. A search filter above each column finds a sentence on the source or translation side.
Review
Origin of each sentence
An indicator shows whether the translation comes from the engine or from the translation memory. For machine translation, a gauge gives the quality level: low, medium or high.
Review
Confirmation
One checkbox per segment confirms its review. The document's progress is shown as a percentage at the top of the editor.
Review
Toolbar
Formatting tags (opening, closing, standalone), bold, italic, underline, and copying the source into the translation.
Check
Checks
The editor flags repeated sentences and inconsistent tags.
Check
Memories
For the selected sentence, the closest translations already approved. Click Apply to use one in the translation.

Fast Lookup
Live search in your memories and in CHnell, on the source or target side. Each result is bilingual, the term is highlighted on both sides and the original document is shown.

AI assistant
Alternatives: the same sentence translated by several engines, side by side, with more on request. Rephrasing: a rewording in five styles (Formal legal, Financial, Simplified, Formal, Informal), with a Shorten option.

Sync
For review by several people: conflicts between two versions to resolve, a colleague's changes to merge, and propagation of a correction to identical sentences.

Do your corrections carry over to your next translations?
Yes, with standard confidentiality. Each correction made in the editor is kept in your translation memory. In the next project, Corrext reuses it. Project after project, the translation adapts to the way you write. And the same passage is translated the same way from one project to the next.
You correct
In the editor, one sentence at a time, against the original.
The correction is kept
The project is stored on Corrext's Swiss servers and serves as a memory for you alone.
The next project reuses it
Your wording comes back, and your translations stay consistent across projects.
Except in Highly sensitive mode
Storage and processing in Switzerland only, no reuse in memory.
From uploaded file to approved document
Review is one stage of a Corrext project. Here is the full process, in the order of the application. The first four steps take place when the project is created.
- 01Project
Project creation
Name, target languages, confidentiality level, and whether the document's comments are translated.
- 02Project
File analysis
Each file is counted in standard pages. A standard page has 1,800 characters, including spaces.
- 03Project
Project terminology
Corrext itself extracts candidate terms from the document. You set their translation, or add your own terms.
- 04Project
Choice of engine
LexMachina, 100% Swiss, or a third-party engine authorised by your organisation: DeepL Pro, Azure OpenAI GPT, Claude. Third-party engines are hosted abroad.
- 05Engine
Machine translation
The chosen engine translates the document. The terms set in step 3 are used as they are.
- 06Editor
Review in the editor
Open in CAT: you review, correct and confirm each sentence, alone or with others.
- 07Dashboard
Validation
The reviewed file is validated from the project dashboard.
- 08Dashboard
Export
The translated document is exported to Word. The file's memory can be downloaded in TMX format.
Working in Word
You can also review in Microsoft Word. Export the document from the project dashboard (Export docx). Open it in Word with the Corrext add-in: the AI assistant, Fast Lookup, memories and Sync are in a task pane. When the review is done, reimport the file (Reimport docx).

Three uses of the review editor
Legal Ops
The same words from one contract to the next
Your legal experts correct the first translation of a template contract. The following translations reuse their wording, and the terms you set are respected. The in-house vocabulary stays stable, project after project.
Law firms
Reviewing as a team before sending
Two reviewers share the document. The Sync tab flags conflicts between versions and the other reviewer's changes. It also offers to apply a correction to identical sentences.
Banking compliance
Handling a sensitive matter
The project is created in Highly sensitive mode: storage and processing in Switzerland only. You review in the same editor, and no sentence is reused in memory.
The other tools in Corrext
The project in three steps: confidentiality, analysed files, internal or external review, quote and delivery time.

What is a CAT tool?
CAT stands for computer-assisted translation. A CAT tool splits the document into segments, that is, sentences or headings, and places each one next to its translation. The reviewer corrects and then confirms each segment, with the help of translation memories and terminology. In Corrext, this tool is called the review editor.
How do I open the review editor?
From a project dashboard. Each file there has an Open in CAT button, which opens the document in the editor. The project itself is created in Translation projects: languages, confidentiality level, terminology and translation engine.
Are my corrections used in future translations?
Yes, with standard confidentiality. Your projects are stored on Corrext's Swiss servers and serve as a translation memory for you alone. A correction made today is reused in your next projects. The translation adapts to your language and stays consistent from one project to the next.
And in Highly sensitive mode?
In Highly sensitive content mode, translations do not feed the memory. The data is stored and processed in Switzerland only. The mode is available in German, French, Italian and English. You choose it when you create each project.
Can several people review the same document?
Yes. The Sync tab handles work by several reviewers. It shows conflicts between two versions of the same sentence, for you to resolve. It lists a colleague's changes, for you to merge. Finally, it offers to apply a correction to the identical sentences in the document: this is propagation. The project team is managed from the dashboard.
Do I need Microsoft Word to review?
No. The review editor works directly in Corrext. If you prefer Word, export the document from the dashboard (Export docx), review it with the Corrext add-in, then reimport it (Reimport docx). The add-in requires a sign-in, project membership and Office 2021 or Microsoft 365.
Are the terms I set respected?
Yes. When the project is created, Corrext itself extracts candidate terms from the document. You set their translation, or add your own terms. A term you have set is used as it is in the machine translation, which you then review in the editor.
Which file formats can I review?
Those you upload to a project: .pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt and .pptx, up to 50 MB per file. The application recommends the original format rather than PDF. From the dashboard, the reviewed document is exported to Word, and its memory can be downloaded in TMX format, the standard exchange format for translation memories.
