Memsource, headquartered in Prague, the Czech Republic, provides a cloud-based translation
environment and is a type of CAT tool. Memsource Cloud includes translation memory, terminology
management, quality assurance, integrated machine translation and a web-based as well as desktop
translator’s workbench.


Memsource Cloud is provided as software as a service and uses a freemium business model. It offers
the Personal, Academic and Developer editions for free, while it charges a monthly subscription fee
for its more feature-rich offerings. These are the Freelancer edition (aimed at freelance
translators) and the Team Start, Team, and Ultimate editions (aimed at translation companies).


Memsource provides both a desktop and web-based translator’s workbench. The latter gets launched
directly from the Memsource Cloud environment. The desktop version, Memsource Editor, installs on
Windows, Mac, and Linux and is available as a free download.
