Translation engine

Sendbird’s message auto-translation and on-demand features are powered by Google Cloud Translation API's recognition engine. The recognition engine supports a wide variety of languages for the Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model.

Note: Message translation through the Microsoft Translator engine is no longer supported. All Sendbird applications that used the engine have been migrated and are now using Google Cloud Translation.
