We now have the ability to include PROMT domain and client specific dictionaries as part of their terminology assets,” said Andrew Bredenkamp, CEO of acrolinx. “This initiative creates a standard for domain-specific dictionaries that can be used by enterprise and small/medium size companies.”

“PROMT domain-specific dictionaries will help Content Rules SMB customers quickly implement their SaaS installations,” said Val Swisher, CEO of Content Rules. “With this dictionary and rules exchange project, they now have the ability to prepare for machine translation during the content development phase. The PROMT-compliant dictionaries are available for both Enterprise and SaaS customers through Content Rules, Inc.”
