Does this mean you have a standing offer to train a new language on demand?



Yes, for a number of European and some Asian languages we can do this; it's mainly the question of business opportunity.


That's very cool. Did you somehow solve autogenerating a training corpus for a new language as long as it's popular? Based on my impressions working with other people in the space, coming up with the training data seems like a big bottleneck - as the available engines are pretty good at learning new languages already.


We have relevant training data for a number of languages.
