Jollo was an online machine translation service where users could instantly translate texts into 23 languages, request human translations from a community of volunteers around the world, and compare the correctness of several leading machine translation websites. It was discontinued in 2012.
Jollo was a free Web 2.0 website that attempted to improve the way in which people translate online through the use of existing machine translation websites and a community of volunteers who correct and rate translations. The system relied on a similar methodology as computer-assisted translation to ensure translation quality, and featured a public translation memory that records past translations.[1]
Jollo received some notable media attention, including in The Daily Telegraph.[2] According to the blog KillerStartups, Jollo combined the benefits of the speed of machine translations and human reviews to ensure translation quality.[3] According to Jeffrey Hill from The English Blog, the community features made Jollo an interesting alternative to other online translation services.[4]
The Jollo website was classified as beta. It was developed using LAMP and was praised for its colorful graphics and simple user interface.
Jollo offered a simple web-based API that could be used for translations. For example, the URL: http://www.jollo.com/translate.php?st=I%20love%20you&sl=en&tl=zh was used to translate the sentence "I love you" from English into Chinese.
