Getting started

Corrext opens from corrext.com, which redirects you to the platform's login page. Log in with your email address and your password, which must be at least 12 characters long, or with the Microsoft single sign-on button if your organisation has enabled it. Once you are logged in, you land on the home page, which lists your translation tools.

1. Open corrext.com in your browser: the page redirects you to the platform's login screen.
2. Enter your work email address, then your password, which has at least 12 characters.
3. Or click Log in with Microsoft single sign-on to use your organisation's single sign-on.
4. If you have forgotten your password, click ‘Forgot your password ?’ below the form to start the reset procedure.
5. You land on the home page, titled ‘Home | Corrext’, where your tools are grouped under ‘My translation tools’.

The Corrext home page groups four tools under the heading ‘My translation tools’. Text and document translation (the ‘Fast translation’ card) translates a text or files immediately. Translation projects (the ‘Translation project’ card) estimates a delivery time and lets you order a review. Fast lookup searches for a term in context in CHnell. Commercial register extract lets you order a certified translation of a commercial register extract. Your current projects appear further down, under ‘My projects’.

1. Log in: the home page appears straight after login, or via the ‘Home’ link in the header.
2. Find the My translation tools section: it contains four cards, each with an arrow button on the right.
3. Choose Fast translation (Text and document translation on this website) to translate a text or files straight away, compare alternatives and rephrase.
4. Choose Translation project (Translation projects on this website) to estimate a review time, get a quote and order an external review.
5. Choose Fast lookup to search for a term in context and find synonyms in the CHnell tool.
6. Choose Commercial register extract to order a certified translation, with notarisation and an apostille if needed.
7. Scroll down to My projects to find your projects. Until you have one, the screen offers ‘Create project’.

In Text and document translation, a drop-down list to the right of the languages lets you choose the engine that translates your text or files. It offers LexMachina, Neur.on's Swiss engine, and third-party engines hosted abroad: ‘DeepL Pro’, ‘Azure OpenAI GPT’ and ‘Claude’. If you choose a third-party engine, an Attorney-Client privilege notice appears, and you must read it before sending anything.

1. Open Text and document translation from the home page, then stay on the ‘Text translation’ tab or switch to ‘File translation’.
2. Find the engine drop-down list in the settings bar, to the right of the two language lists.
3. Open it and choose a Swiss Neur.on engine to keep processing in Switzerland.
4. Or choose a third-party engine (‘DeepL Pro’, ‘Azure OpenAI GPT’ or ‘Claude’) to compare another way of translating.
5. Read the Attorney-Client privilege notice if it appears: it reminds you of your organisation's policy on pseudonymising the document before anything is sent.
6. On the ‘File translation’ tab, you choose the engine together with the target language, under ‘Choose a translation engine and a target language’.

‘Highly sensitive content’ mode ensures that your data is stored and processed exclusively in Switzerland, and that the translated content does not feed into any translation memory for your future projects. In Text and document translation, it is a toggle to the right of the tabs. In Translation projects, it is one of the two confidentiality cards. It is available for German, French, Italian and English.

1. In Text and document translation, find the Highly sensitive content toggle, to the right of the row of tabs.
2. Switch it on before you enter your text or upload your files: it stays on when you move to the ‘File translation’ tab.
3. Check your target language: in sensitive mode, only EN, FR, IT and DE are offered.
4. In Translation projects, when asked ‘How confidential are the project and the uploaded files?’, choose the Highly sensitive content card.
5. Continue through the workflow as usual: the confidentiality setting applies to every file in the project.

When you select a third-party translation engine hosted abroad, Corrext displays an ‘Attorney-Client privilege notice’ banner. It reminds you of your organisation's policy: remove from the document any reference that could reveal the identity of clients or related parties, or the subject of the matter. Under this policy, these engines are used only for fully pseudonymised documents, and never for a sensitive or high-profile matter.

1. Open the engine list in Text and document translation and select a third-party engine, for example ‘DeepL Pro’.
2. Read the Attorney-Client privilege notice banner that appears above the work area.
3. Remove client names, related parties and anything that could identify the matter from your text or files.
4. Do not use these engines for a high-profile or price-sensitive matter: your organisation prohibits it.
5. If pseudonymisation is not possible, go back to a Swiss Neur.on engine or switch on ‘Highly sensitive content’ mode.

Corrext offers 30 target languages on the platform, with German, French, Italian and English as its four native languages. The source language is detected automatically: the left-hand list shows ‘Detect language’, then the recognised language as soon as you start typing. A swap button between the two lists switches the source and target languages in one click.

1. Open Text and document translation: the left-hand list shows Detect language by default.
2. Start typing your text: the list switches to the recognised language, which you can correct manually.
3. Open the right-hand list to choose your target language. English is selected by default.
4. Use the swap button between the two lists to switch the source and target languages.
5. If the language you need is missing, check the ‘Highly sensitive content’ toggle: it restricts the choice to EN, FR, IT and DE.
