It's time to upgrade

Designed with customer feedback in mind, Trados Studio 2026 Release combines translation memory, terminology management, machine translation and Generative AI in a single desktop environment. It delivers improved productivity, faster performance, enhanced cloud collaboration and a modern user experience for freelance translators, language service providers and enterprise teams.

AI-powered translation and review assistance
Improved integration between desktop and cloud
Faster project creation and synchronization
Next-generation architecture for improved speed and stability
Enhanced terminology management
Improved translation memory management
Expanded file format support
Improved quality assurance checks
Better usability across the application
Access to the latest Trados AppStore integrations

Trados Studio 2026 Release continues to support more than 50 file formats, enabling translators and localization teams to work with a wide variety of content. Together with the integrated Trados AppStore, Studio can be extended even further through specialized applications for software localization, subtitling and many other translation workflows.

No other CAT tool supports more file types than we do, and our commitment to growing this number is another reflection of how we cater to the unique needs of our clients. We don’t support just the most common file types used for a majority of projects, but also those required for more niche needs.
Some file types are supported through apps available from the integrated RWS AppStore. For example, the Studio Subtitling app is ideal for those who want to serve this growing area of translation. It not only supports a variety of audio, video and subtitle file formats, but real-time previews, timing controls, and video-specific verification checks and quality assurance.

We can’t possibly cover all the developments we’ve made for Trados Studio 2024, but here are a few highlights of changes specifically designed to give you greater flexibility and choice in how you work.

New Reports view for greater flexibility

If you want more speed and flexibility than thestandard Reports view offers, then the Reports Viewer Plus app is the ideal solution. It speeds up the way reports render and lets you edit report names, group them differently, adapt the way they look through stylesheets, and include reports (XML files) from other tools, among other capabilities. Like all of our apps, it’s available from the RWS AppStore, accessible directly from Studio.

Improvements to Editor and Files views

Trados Studio 2026 Release continues to improve the Editor and Files views with faster performance, improved usability and enhanced productivity features that help translators complete projects more efficiently.

Faster editor performance
Improved terminology recognition
Better handling of large projects
Enhanced quality assurance
Improved document navigation
Greater workflow flexibility

We’ve also released a new studioViews app, which gives you greater flexibility in sending work to others. It lets you:

Export a subset of segments in the editor view to a file, and reimport them back to the original file when returned – even if the segments have been restructured in the meantime
Split or merge files from the files view, and re-merge split files when they’re returned

Terminology languages now equal to editing languages

Enhanced terminology management provides more accurate term recognition and a smoother workflow for creating, managing and applying terminology across projects, helping ensure consistency and translation quality.
This means that whatever language you’re translating to, you can now get termbase suggestions from MultiTerm within Studio and the online editor.
