Platform · Translation Memory
Translate It Once
Reuse It Forever
Every confirmed segment enters your translation memory. The next project pre-translates against it, linguists see matches the moment they open a segment, and the cost of each new project bends down as the asset grows. The record stays clean, searchable, and yours to move.
Start With Your History
Build a Translation Memory From Everything You've Translated
A memory is most valuable when it starts with your history in it. Wordbee imports from any standards-compliant tool and organizes the result so the right memory reaches the right project automatically.
Import From Any Tool
TMX 1.4 from any standards-compliant TMS, plus Excel, CSV, and AlignAssist files. Column mapping handles bilingual spreadsheets, and metadata is preserved when the source provides it.
Turn Legacy Documents Into a TM
Already aligned source and target documents drop straight into a memory as TMX or .aaf files. Your back catalog becomes leverage on the very next project.
Organize and Reuse
Resource groups assign TMs to projects automatically by client or domain. Labels tag memories for filtering and cleanup, and priority decides which memory wins when several apply.
How Matching Works
Every Match Type, Named and Priced.
Wordbee scores every source segment against your memory before anyone opens the editor, so the match breakdown lands on the word count up front. The more a segment is reused, the less a linguist touches it, and the more consistent the result.

The TM Lifecycle
One Loop That Compounds
A translation memory is not a one-time import. It is a loop: every project you run feeds the asset, and every project after it starts further ahead.
- Every project makes the next one cheaper and more consistent
Step 1 · Create
Create a Memory
Set up a TM once and name it by client or domain. It is a database you own and can share across as many projects as you like.
At this step
- Start empty or import an existing TM
- Name by client, domain, or language pair
- Persists indefinitely, independent of any one project
Clean by Design
Two Memories, One Source of Truth
Every project gets its own automatic memory for work in progress. Your master TM holds only the approved, client-facing record. Translations move up when you consolidate, and never before, so you decide exactly what enters the asset you share with linguists, clients, and future projects.
- Project memory captures every draft and revision as work happens
- Master TM receives only the confirmed content you approve to consolidate
- Automatic consolidation on workflow completion is one toggle
- Or consolidate manually after a final client sign-off
- Delete a project unconsolidated and its drafts stay out of your master
Created automatically. Captures every draft, edit, and revision while work is in flight.
