Welocalize, a global leader in AI-enabled translation and multilingual content solutions, today announced that its patented AIQE (AI Quality Estimation) has been named a finalist in the Best Use of AI in Natural Language Processing (NLP) & Translation category at the 2025 A.I. Awards. Operated by The Cloud Awards, the international program recognizes groundbreaking applications of artificial intelligence across industries.
AIQE is Welocalize’s patented solution for segment-level translation quality estimation, which enables enterprises to determine when machine-generated content meets quality thresholds without requiring full human review. Integrated with the additional components of the OPAL Platform (MT and LLMs for automated post-editing), the system dramatically reduces review time while increasing speed.
In addition to AIQE’s finalist placement, Welocalize also earned shortlist recognition in two further categories:
- Best Use of AI in Cyber Security – NIMO (Network Identity Management and Operations) by Welo Data, a risk-management platform for AI training data pipelines. NIMO verifies workforce identity, monitors production in real time, and prevents fraud, bots, and policy violations—ensuring data integrity at scale across 500,000+ experts in 250+ languages.
- Best Use of AI in Legal Tech – Legal Studio, a platform that streamlines multilingual legal and IP filings by combining AI workflow automation with expert human review. It helps global legal teams reduce turnaround times and maintain compliance.
“AIQE being named a finalist is a powerful validation of our patented innovation and its impact on multilingual workflows,” said Paul Carr, CEO of Welocalize. “It shows how we’re redefining translation quality by combining automation with human expertise at scale. The recognition of NIMO in Cyber Security and Legal Studio in Legal Tech further underscores our commitment to combining AI, software, and human expertise to solve very specific use cases.”
The winners of the 2025 A.I. Awards will be announced on October 13, 2025. For the full list of finalists, visit https://www.cloud-awards.com/2025-ai-awards-finalists.
