Idea
A multilingual document-level translation dataset and platform enabling improved translation models for global and under-resourced language applications
Research Paper
Core Innovation
This paper introduces DocHPLT, the largest dataset of aligned document pairs across 50 languages with English, preserving full document context from web sources. It enables training and evaluation of document-level translation models that outperform existing baselines, especially for under-resourced languages. This approach advances beyond sentence-level datasets by maintaining document integrity for better translation quality.
Market Size (TAM)
$2–10B TAM, $1–2B SAM; assumption: growing global demand for multilingual AI and document translation services.

Research Paper Overview
DocHPLT: A Massively Multilingual Document-Level Translation Dataset
Summary
DocHPLT is the largest publicly available document-level translation dataset, containing 124 million aligned document pairs across 50 languages paired with English, totaling 4.26 billion sentences. It preserves complete document integrity from web sources, enabling improved training and evaluation of document-level translation models, especially benefiting under-resourced languages. Fine-tuned LLMs on DocHPLT outperform existing baselines significantly.
