Patent attributes
Systems and methods for an online mediated language translation market are described. A language translation mediation (“LTM”) system may provide customers with the ability to request and receive language translation services on demand and/or in real-time. Language translation services may be provided by the language translation mediation system, for example via translators who know multiple languages, in exchange for a translation fee. A customer may request a translation of text, images, audio and/or video content from the LTM system, the LTM system routes the translation request to one or more translators who may perform the translation, and the LTM system provides one or more selected translations to the customer. In some embodiments the LTM system may determine a price for a translation and/or facilitate payment on behalf of, or from, the customer, to the translator who provided the translation for the customer.
