Description

Adaptive Custom Translation (AdaptCT) is generally available in the Azure AI Foundry NextGen playground for Azure Translator. AdaptCT enables enterprises to adapt translations to domain‑specific terminology using small datasets—eliminating the need for traditional model retraining. AdaptCT allows developers to update multilingual content in minutes by indexing high‑value examples and applying them dynamically at translation time (few-shot) to ground selected LLM. 

This approach helps organizations: 

  • Launch multilingual product features faster 
  • Maintain terminology consistency across evolving content 
  • Reduce operational overhead for translation workflows 
  • Deliver localized customer experiences at scale 

AdaptCT turns translation into an agile enabler for global growth—supporting real‑time updates across support content, product documentation, and dynamic digital experiences.
