It is used by growing and enterprise localisation businesses to coordinate translation workflows, automate administrative processes, and maintain visibility into costs, margins, and delivery performance. XTRF connects operational project data with financial processes, enabling teams to manage both execution and profitability from one system. XTRF is designed for language service providers handling multiple clients, vendors, languages, and tools. As project volumes increase, manual coordination through spreadsheets, email, and disconnected accounting systems creates inefficiencies, errors, and delayed payments. XTRF addresses these challenges by centralising project information and automating repeatable tasks across the project lifecycle. The system supports end-to-end project management, starting with quoting and project setup and continuing through task assignment, delivery, invoicing, and payment tracking. Quotes can be converted directly into active projects, with costs and revenues linked to each job in real time. This allows teams to monitor margins while projects are in progress rather than relying solely on retrospective reporting. XTRF includes an AI-powered agent that supports operational decision-making by analysing project, vendor, and financial data to assist with tasks such as workflow optimisation, risk identification, and operational recommendations. XTRF integrates with multiple CAT tools, including XTM, Trados, Phrase, and memoQ. This enables language service providers to support client-preferred tools while keeping project management, financial data, and reporting consistent. XTRF is part of the broader XTM platform, alongside translation management and localisation technologies, allowing organisations to connect business management with enterprise localisation workflows. XTRF is used by project managers, operations teams, finance teams, and leadership within language service providers that require scalable workflow automation, financial oversight, and data-driven decision-making. Key product capabilities and value Workflow and project automation Automates project creation, task assignment, notifications, and status tracking to reduce manual coordination and operational overhead. Integrated financial management Manages quotes, purchase orders, invoices, receivables, and payables alongside project execution, with real-time visibility into profitability. Vendor management and allocation Maintains a central vendor database with rates, availability, specialisations, and performance data, supporting automated and rule-based job allocation. Business intelligence and reporting Provides live dashboards covering project volume, client activity, language demand, and margins to support operational and commercial decisions. Multi-CAT tool integration Connects workflows and financial data across multiple CAT tools, reducing fragmentation and manual data transfer.
