Organize your Smartcat workspace

Overview

The more complicated your projects get, the bigger and more diverse your team needs to be. Smartcat gives you convenient, secure workspaces and virtual environments where you can share projects, linguistic assets, and other resources with your teammates.

Join or create a workspace

When you create your Smartcat account, you can request to join an existing workspace in your organization or create a new one.

You can invite colleagues, contractors, or anyone else to work with you in Smartcat at any time.

You can do this by sharing a link, as described in this article.

What workspace users can do

Workspace users can:

• Create, view, and edit translations and projects

• Create and manage Translation Memories (TM) and glossaries

• Use Smartwords in the workspace to get AI translation

• Approve, download, and share translations

• Find and assign language service providers to do the translations and post-editing

• Test translators and check translation quality manually or through Smartcat

What workspace administrators can do

In addition to the user permissions, Workspace Admins can:

• View all projects in the workspace and get information about their owners

• Manage the Smartcat subscription and top up Smartwords for the workspace

• Invite new vendors and team members to projects

Add vendors from the Marketplace

Beyond inviting a member of your team, a colleague from a different department, or a freelancer hired outside Smartcat, you can hire vendors from the Smartcat Marketplace and add them to your team to collaborate on a regular basis.

Benefits of using Smartcat workspaces

• Safety and security: you can change access permissions at any time

• Transparency and control: the Workspace Admin can see all project details, including task-by-task progress, on one page

• Flexibility: you can negotiate with freelancers and set discounted rates for you and your workspace users
