How accurate is AI document translation?

Modern AI translation is very accurate for common language pairs and everyday documents — often matching or exceeding the quality you'd get from a junior human translator. But it's not perfect, especially for legal or medical terminology, dialects, or unusual document formats.

Will the Home Office accept an AI translation?

No. The UK Home Office requires translations to include a signed statement of accuracy, the translator's contact details, and the date of translation. An AI-only translation has none of those.

What's the difference between certified, notarised, and sworn translation in the UK?

Certified: signed by a qualified translator with a statement of accuracy — what the Home Office, NHS, and most UK universities require. Notarised: a certified translation additionally witnessed by a notary public. Sworn: a continental-Europe concept rarely needed in the UK.

Is Google Translate good enough for a UK visa application?

No. Even if the translation is accurate, a Google Translate output is not signed, not dated, and has no translator details — so UKVI will reject it.

How long does Polytxt take to translate a document?

The free AI preview appears in under 10 seconds. Subsequent 25-segment batches each take a few seconds. Human-certified translation is coming soon, with a planned 3 working days for Standard and 24 hours for Express.

Can Polytxt translate scanned PDFs and images?

Yes. We run scanned PDFs and image uploads through OCR before translation. Quality of the original scan affects extraction accuracy.

What languages does Polytxt support?

66 language pairs including all major UK-incoming languages: Polish, Romanian, Ukrainian, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Dutch, Arabic, Mandarin, Farsi, Pashto, Tamil, Bengali, Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, Turkish, Greek, Lithuanian, Latvian, and more.

Is my document private and secure?

Documents are encrypted in transit and at rest, held in UK data centres only, never indexed or shared externally, and purged after 30 days unless you save them to an account. We never train AI on your content.

Do I need an account to use Polytxt?

No account needed to try the free AI preview. You only need to register if you want to save the translation, request a human-certified upgrade, or come back to it later.

How do I get a certified translation for the Home Office?

Upload your document and view the free AI preview today. Human-certified translation is coming soon: a qualified translator will review and sign off, with a planned 3 working days (24 hours Express), and you'll receive the signed certified translation as a PDF download with the statement of accuracy attached.

Can I translate documents for UCAS or a UK university application?

The free AI preview works for UCAS and UK university documents today. Our human-certified translation format — for UK ENIC (formerly UK NARIC) statements of comparability where you submit a certified translation alongside the original document — is coming soon.

Does Polytxt preserve document layout?

The coming-soon certified translation will preserve the structural elements UK authorities care about — headings, sections, signature blocks, stamps and seals described, table layouts maintained. Full visual recreation of the original (a baked-in lookalike) is coming in a future release.

Kusebenza kanjani

Ungahumusha kanjani amadokhumenti ku-inthanethi — inqubo yezinyathelo ezi-4 ka-Polytxt.

Hudula, bamba, ubone izingxenye zokuqala ezingama-25 zihunyushwe mahhala ngaphakathi kwemizuzwana, bese unquma. I-AI yenza okusalungiswa, mahhala. Ukuhumusha okuqinisekiswe ngabantu sekuzofika maduze kumadokhumenti adinga ukugunyazwa okusemthethweni. Isekelwe e-UK, imibhangqwana yezilimi engu-66 iyasekelwa.

Thola ukubuka kuqala kwe-AI okukhululekile kwengxenye zokuqala ezingama-25

Ngaphakathi kwemizuzwana ubona izingxenye zokuqala ezingama-25 zedokhumenti yakho zihunyushwe ngokuhambisana nomthombo. Umthombo kwesobunxele, umgomo kwesokudla. Akukho ikhadi, akukho ukubhalisa, akukho ukuzibophezela.

Sihlukanisa idokhumenti yakho sibe izingxenye emikhawulweni yemisho ukuze ukubukwa okuhambisana kube lula ukufundeka ngisho nakumadokhumenti amade. Uma unesitifiketi sokuzalwa esinemigqa emihlanu yamaparagrafu, cishe sizohumusha konke ekuqaleni ezingxenyeni ezingama-25. Uma unenkontileka yamakhasi ayishumi, uzobona izingxenye zokuqala ezingama-25 futhi ube nenketho yokubuka okwengeziwe (ngamaqoqo angama-25, kunokuma okufushane phakathi kwamaqoqo ukuze kugcinwe izindleko ze-API zilawulwa).

Sisebenzisa imodeli yesimanje yolimi olukhulu enomyalo olulungiselwe ukuhumusha. Ikhwalithi iyafana noma ingcono kuno-Google Translate — futhi kunoma yini eyamukelwe ngokusemthethweni (Home Office, NHS, amanyuvesi ase-UK), ukuhumusha okuqinisekiswe umuntu kuzofika maduze (bona Isinyathelo 4).

Buyekeza ukuhumusha okuphelele kwe-AI

Chofoza “buka okwengeziwe” ukuze uveze izingxenye ezilandelayo ezingama-25. Qhubeka uze uhumushe yonke idokhumenti. Iqoqo ngalinye lithatha imizuzwana embalwa ukuze libonakale — sisebenzisa leso sikhathi ukuze sigcine konke kubushelelezi, bese siyeka ukufiphaza ingxenye elandelayo.

Uma ufuna ukugcina lokhu kuhumusha kwe-AI njengoba kunjalo, ungakukhipha (sihlinzeka nge-PDF enophawu lwamanzi eboniswe ngokucacile “AI Translation — Not Certified”). Kubasebenzisi abaningi bokufunda komuntu siqu nokuqonda-okuqukethwe, lokhu kwanele. Ukuhumusha okuqinisekiswe umuntu, kunoma yini esemthethweni, kuzofika maduze (bona Isinyathelo 4).

Umhumushi oqeqeshiwe wabantu uzobuyekeza umbhalo we-AI, alungise noma yimaphi amaphutha, bese esayina ngesitatimende sokunemba — lezi zinto ezintathu amanye amagalelo e-UK awadingayo: isitatimende esisayiniwe, imininingwane yomhumushi, nosuku.

Amanani azoshicilelwa ku- ikhasi lamanani uma kuqala ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe.

Kungani i-Polytxt

Okukwenza i-Polytxt ihluke ku-Google Translate

Yakhelwe amagalelo e-UK

I-Google Translate ilungele ukufunda nje okungakahleleki. Ayamukelwa yi-UK Visas and Immigration, i-Home Office, i-NHS, noma amanyuvesi ase-UK ngoba akukho ukusayinwa komuntu futhi akukho sitatimende sokunemba. Ukuhumusha okuqinisekiswe ngabantu kwe-Polytxt — okunikeza kokubili, kusayinwe umhumushi oqeqeshiwe — kuzayo.

Amadokhumenti akho ahlala eyimfihlo

I-Polytxt igcina amadokhumenti ezikhungweni zedatha zase-UK izinsuku ezingu-30 bese iwacisha ngokuzenzakalelayo. Asisoze siqeqeshe i-AI ngokuqukethwe kwakho. Imigomo ye-Google Translate ivumela i-Google ukuthi isebenzise lokho okuthumelayo — akukuhle ekuskeneni kwepasipoti noma esitatimendeni sasebhange.

Umgudu wokuhlola kuwo wonke umsebenzi

Uma kuqala ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe, wonke umsebenzi oqinisekisiwe uzoba nelogi yokuhlola engalandelwa: ukuthi ubani owuyibuyekeza, nini, usebenzisa muphi umbhalo we-AI njengokufaka, nokuthi yini eyashintshwa. Uma igunya lase-UK libuza ukuhumusha, singakhiqiza ubufakazi.

Kuyazi ukwakheka

Abahumushi abaningi abaku-inthanethi bakunikeza udonga lombhalo. I-Polytxt igcina ukwakheka kwedokhumenti ukuze isitifiketi somshado esiqinisekisiwe sibukeke njengesitifiketi somshado, hhayi isigaxa semigqa. Ukukhiqizwa kokwakheka okwakhelwe ngaphakathi kuzayo ngokulandelayo.

Izimo zokusetshenziswa

Izizathu ezivamile zokuthi abantu bahumushe amadokhumenti nge-Polytxt

Ukuhumusha amadokhumenti okwesicelo se-visa yase-UK

I-UK Visas and Immigration idinga ukuthi yonke idokhumenti esekelayo engeyona isiNgisi iza nokuhumusha okugcwele, isitatimende esisayiniwe sokunemba esivela kumhumushi, imininingwane yokuxhumana yomhumushi, nosuku lokuhumusha. Amadokhumenti ajwayelekile afaka phakathi izitifiketi zokuzalwa, izitifiketi zomshado, ukuhlanzwa kwamaphoyisa, izitatimende zasebhange, izincwadi zokuqashwa, nobufakazi bobudlelwano. I-tier yethu Ekujwayelekile eqinisekisiwe (ehleliwe ku-£40 ngekhasi, ukubuya ezinsukwini ezi-3) izothumela zonke izici ezine ezidingekayo; uma kudingeka ngokushesha ngenxa yosuku lokugcina lwe-visa, i-Express tier ku-£90 ngekhasi nayo ihleliwe. Zombili zizayo.

Ukuhumusha amadokhumenti e-NHS

Ama-NHS trusts kanye nemikhuba ye-GP kudingeka ngokwandayo ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe kwamarekhodi ezokwelapha angaphandle, umlando wokugoma, amanothi kadokotela, namafomu emvume — ikakhulukazi kubabaleki, abafuna indawo yokukhosela, kanye nabasanda kufika abavela e-Ukraine, e-Romania, e-Bulgaria, e-Hong Kong, nakwezinye izindawo. I-Polytxt ihumusha zonke izinhlanganisela ezivamile zaseYurophu nezilimi zomhlaba ngokuphatha okuyimfihlo nokusayina okulungele ukuhlolwa.

Ukuhumusha iziqu zangaphandle zamanyuvesi ase-UK

I-UCAS, i-UK ENIC (eyayike yaba yi-UK NARIC), namanyuvesi ngamunye ase-UK kudingeka ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe kwezitifiketi zamadigri angaphandle, ama-transcript, nezinkomba zemfundo lapho kuhlolwa izicelo zabafundi bamazwe ngamazwe. I-Polytxt ihumusha izitifiketi zamadigri nama-transcript agcwele, igcina amagama enyuvesi, izikali zamabanga, namakhodi ezifundo okudingwa abahloli be-ENIC ukuze bamephule emazingeni ezemfundo e-UK.

Ukuhumusha amadokhumenti okuba yisakhamuzi sase-UK nokuhlala

Ukuzalwa kwemvelo, i-Indefinite Leave to Remain, i-EU Settlement Scheme, nezicelo zomzila womndeni konke kudinga ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe kobufakazi obusekelayo ngolimi lwangaphandle. I-Polytxt iphatha iphepha elivamile — amapasipoti angaphandle, izitifiketi zesimo somphakathi, izitifiketi zentela kamasipala, nobufakazi bokuhlala isikhathi eside — futhi ukuqinisekiswa ngabantu, ngendlela i-Home Office eyamukela ngayo, kuzayo.

Imibuzo evame ukubuzwa

Izimpendulo ezisheshayo zemibuzo esiyizwa kakhulu. Awukwazi ukuthola okudingayo? Xhumana nathi.

Ukuhumusha kwe-AI kwesimanje kunembile kakhulu kuma-pair ajwayelekile olimi nemibhalo yansuku zonke — ngokuvamile kufinyelela noma kudlule ikhwalithi ongayithola kumhumushi womuntu osaqalayo. Kodwa akuphelele, ikakhulukazi ngamagama asemthethweni noma ezokwelapha, izilimi (dialects), noma amafomethi emibhalo angajwayelekile. Yingakho isevisi yethu ezayo esiqinisekisiwe njalo izobandakanya umhumushi ofanelekayo obuyekeza umbhalo we-AI ngaphambi kokusayinwa.

Cha. I-UK Home Office idinga ukuthi ukuhumusha kufake isimemezelo esisayiniwe sokunemba, imininingwane yokuxhumana yomhumushi, nosuku lokuhumusha. Ukuhumusha okwenziwa yi-AI kuphela akunalutho kulokho. Sebenzisa ukubuka kuqala kwe-AI kwamahhala ukuze uhlole okuqukethwe manje; isevisi yethu yomuntu eqinisekisiwe, yenguqulo esemthethweni i-Home Office eyayamukelayo, izofika maduze.

Okuqinisekisiwe: kusayinwe umhumushi ofanelekayo ngesimemezelo sokunemba — lokho okudingwa yi-Home Office, i-NHS, namanyuvesi amaningi ase-UK. Okwenziwa phambi komabhalane (Notarised): ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe okuthi kube khona futhi kufakazelwe umabhalane womphakathi (okudingekayo kwezinye iziphathimandla zangaphandle). Okufungisiwe (Sworn): umqondo waseYurophu yezwekazi lapho umhumushi ephethe isifungo esaziwa yinkantolo; kuyaqabukela kudingeke e-UK. I-Polytxt izohlinzeka ngokuthi kuqinisekisiwe ngokuzenzakalelayo, kuthi lapho kudingeka khona, ukwenziwa phambi komabhalane kuhlelwe ngomlingani wethu umabhalane — izofika maduze.

Cha. Noma ukuhumusha kunembile, okukhiphayo kwe-Google Translate akusayinwanga, akubhalwanga usuku, futhi akunayo imininingwane yomhumushi — ngakho i-UKVI izokwenqaba. Sebenzisa ukubuka kuqala kwe-AI kwamahhala kwe-Polytxt ukuze uhlole okuqukethwe manje; ukuhumusha okuqinisekiswe ngumuntu, ukuze idokhumenti yamukelwe, kuzofika maduze.

Ukubuka kuqala kwe-AI kwamahhala kuvela ngaphansi kwemizuzwana eyi-10. Amaqoqo alandelayo angama-segment angu-25 ngalinye athatha imizuzwana embalwa. Ukuhumusha okuqinisekiswe ngumuntu kuzofika maduze, kunesikhathi esihleliwe sezinsuku ezi-3 zokusebenza ze-Standard namahora angu-24 e-Express. Sizokuthumela i-imeyili ngokushesha lapho inguqulo yakho eqinisekisiwe isilungile.

Yebo. Sidlulisa ama-PDF askeniwe nokulayishwa kwezithombe nge-OCR (ukubona izinhlamvu ngokubona ngamehlo) ngaphambi kokuhumusha. Ikhwalithi yokuskena kwasekuqaleni ithinta ukunemba kokukhipha — ukuskena okuhlanzekile, okuqondile kusebenza kangcono. Ukubhala ngesandla kakhulu noma ukuskena kwekhwalithi ephansi kakhulu kungase kudinge ukuthi uphinde ulayishe ikhophi ecacile.

Ama-pair olimi angama-66 okuhlanganisa yonke imilayezo emikhulu efika e-UK: isiPolish, isiRomanian, isi-Ukraine, isi-Italian, isiSpanish, isiPortuguese, isiFulentshi, isiJalimane, isiDashi, isi-Arabhu, isiMandarin, isiFarsi, isiPashto, isiTamil, isiBengali, isi-Urdu, isiHindi, isiPunjabi, isiTurkish, isiGreek, isiLithuanian, isiLatvian, nokunye okuningi. Bheka uhlu olubukhoma ekhasini lasekhaya.

Yebo. Imibhalo ibethelwa ngesikhathi sokudluliswa nangaphansi kokugcinwa, igcinwe kuphela ezikhungweni zedatha zase-UK, ayisoze yafakwa ohlwini noma yabelwane ngaphandle, futhi iyasuswa ngemva kwezinsuku ezingu-30 ngaphandle uma uyigcina ku-akhawunti. Asisoze siqeqeshe amamodeli e-AI ngokuqukethwe kwakho. Bona inqubomgomo yethu yobumfihlo ukuze uthole imininingwane ephelele.

Akudingeki i-akhawunti ukuze uzame ukubuka kuqala kwe-AI kwamahhala. Udinga kuphela ukubhalisa uma ufuna ukugcina ukuhumusha, ucele ukuthuthukiswa okuqinisekiswe ngumuntu, noma ubuyele kukho kamuva usebenzisa esinye isisetshenziswa.

Layisha idokhumenti yakho bese ubuka ukubuka kuqala kwe-AI kwamahhala namuhla. Ukuhumusha okuqinisekiswe ngumuntu kuzofika maduze: umhumushi ofanelekayo uzobuyekeza futhi asayine, ngokuhleleka kwezinsuku ezi-3 zokusebenza (amahora angu-24 e-Express), futhi uzothola ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe okusayiniwe njengokulanda kwe-PDF kanye nesimemezelo sokunemba esinamathiselwe. Bona ikhasi lentengo ukuze uthole ukuhlukaniswa okuphelele.

Ukubuka kuqala kwe-AI kwamahhala kuyasebenza namuhla ku-UCAS nemibhalo yamanyuvesi ase-UK. Ifomethi yethu yokuhumusha eqinisekiswe ngumuntu — yezitatimende ze-UK ENIC (eyayake yaba yi-UK NARIC) zokufana lapho uthumela khona ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe kanye nedokhumenti yoqobo — izofika maduze. Izikhungo ezamukelayo zihlola ukwamukelwa ngokwemibandela yazo eshicilelwe.

Ukuhumusha okuqinisekisiwe okuzayo okuzayo kuzogcina izakhiwo ezibalulekile ezikhathalelwa iziphathimandla zase-UK — okungukuthi, amakhanda, izigaba, amabhlogo okusayina, izitembu nezimpawu ezichazwe, nokuhlelwa kwamathebula kugcinwe. Ukuphinda ukubukeka okuphelele kwangempela (ukubukeka okufana ncamashi) kuzofika esikhathini esizayo ekukhishweni okulandelayo.
