Bureau Works vs LILT: Which is best for you?

The platform simplifies the creation of projects, automatic task assignment, and overhead cost reduction through process automation.

Nowadays, clients have worried that linguists might be using free and insecure machine-translation engines, like Google Translate, as a shortcut to complete their tasks.

Lilt is a powerful AI-driven translation platform that excels in enterprise localization with smart AI-human hybrid workflows and deep integrations (Shopify, GitHub, Contentful), making it ideal for large-scale, high-quality multilingual projects—but its steep learning curve, opaque enterprise pricing, and occasional AI limitations in specialized fields make it less suited for small teams or casual .

The least I like about Lilt is its current task assignment mechanism, a first-come, first-served system triggered by email notifications.
