LILT's contextual AI applies their brand voice and terminology automatically. - **Automate Knowledge Base Translation in Helpdesks** — Trigger translation jobs whenever your users publish a new support article, then sync the verified localized versions back via webhooks. Eliminates manual handoffs to localization vendors. - **Add Native Multilingual Content Generation to CMS Tools** — Use LILT Create to generate net-new content directly in target languages from prompts and preferences, rather than translating from a source. Lets your CMS users author region-specific content in one step. - **Localize Course Materials in LMS Platforms** — Upload subtitle files, quiz strings, and course metadata to LILT and deliver multilingual training to global learners. Course creators get parallel-language delivery without managing separate localization workflows. - **Real-time Translation for Support and Chat** — Translate agent replies and customer messages on the fly using your users' Translation Memory for brand-consistent phrasing. Enables global support teams to work in their native language. ## What you can build - **One-click File Translation Jobs** — Upload XLIFF, HTML, or SRT files and kick off multi-language translation jobs in a single flow, with status tracked through job webhooks. - **Webhook-driven Translation Delivery** — Subscribe to LILT job delivery events so your platform automatically pulls down completed translations and updates user content without polling. - **In-app Translation Memory Editor** — Let users search, add, and remove segments from their LILT memories directly inside your UI so brand terminology stays current. - **LILT Create Content Studio** — Expose LILT Create preferences and content generation so users can produce on-brand multilingual articles, product descriptions, or marketing copy from structured prompts. - **Large Asset Multipart Uploads** — Handle large video transcripts or document bundles using LILT's S3 multipart upload flow, with chunked upload and completion managed end-to-end. - **Project & Job Lifecycle Dashboard** — Show your users a live view of their LILT projects, jobs, activities, and downloadable deliveries with archive, reactivate, and delete controls built in. ## FAQs ### How does authentication work when my users connect their LILT accounts? Truto handles LILT credential collection, secure storage, and token management for each of your end users. Your application calls Truto with a tenant identifier and we attach the correct LILT credentials per request. ### Can I avoid polling for translation job status? Yes. Use create_a_lilt_webhook_configuration to subscribe to job lifecycle events like JOB_DELIVER, and Truto will normalize delivery so your platform reacts to completed translations in near real time. ### Does the integration support large file uploads? Yes. In addition to standard create_a_lilt_file uploads, the multipart suite (create_a_lilt_upload_multipart, get_single_lilt_upload_multipart_part_by_id, create_a_lilt_upload_multipart_completion) lets you chunk large assets through S3-backed uploads with cancellation support. ### Can my users update their Translation Memory from inside my product? Yes. The memory endpoints (list_all_lilt_memories, lilt_memories_search, create_a_lilt_memory, create_a_lilt_segment, delete_a_lilt_memory_segment_by_id) let you build UI for managing memories, segments, and termbases without sending users back to LILT. ### Does this support multilingual content generation, not just translation? Yes. The LILT Create endpoints (create_a_lilt_create, create_a_lilt_create_content, get_single_lilt_create_preference_by_id, update_a_lilt_create_preference_by_id) let you generate net-new content in a target language using user-defined tone and style preferences. ### What file formats and language metadata are exposed? You can list supported languages and domains via list_all_lilt_languages and list_all_lilt_domains, retrieve XLIFF documents via get_single_lilt_document_by_id, and download translated assets via get_single_lilt_translated_file_by_id and get_single_lilt_job_download_by_id. ### Can I manage the full job lifecycle programmatically? Yes. Beyond create, read, update, and delete on jobs, you can call create_a_lilt_job_archive, create_a_lilt_job_unarchive, create_a_lilt_job_delivery, create_a_lilt_job_reactivation, and create_a_lilt_job_stat to drive end-to-end workflow automation. ## Related reading - [Connect LILT to ChatGPT: Automate Translation & AI Content Creation](https://truto.one/blog/connect-lilt-to-chatgpt-automate-translation-ai-content-creation/) — Learn how to connect LILT to ChatGPT using Truto's managed MCP server.
