More information about our different plans and how to manage your subscription may be found on our website, Pricing, and in our article, How to Subscribe and Manage Your Bureau Works Plan.

In second section you will be able to visualize and keep track of raw processed characters and words volume. Regardless of segments being translated/confirmed, raw processed words consider source/target content at the time the work unit is formed. These figures are broken down by month.

The third section displays the number of characters and words handled by machine translation. This volume will be tracked monthly and will include both source and target content at the time of work unit creation and each time the segment is translated or rerun by machine translation and suggestions.

Quote automation is a feature that enables Bureau Works to run through the project and determine the project costs without the need for human validation.

When enabled, the platform will perform quotation automation immediately after creating a project, and the project's status will instantly change to pending, ready for client approval.

When disabled, after creating the project, the Project Manager must manually insert the quote into the system and change the project's status from draft to pending.
