What Gets Migrated¶

Migration Process¶

Step 1: Export Existing Assets (30 min)¶

# Export TM from your current tool
# Most tools: File → Export → TMX format
# Save as: translation-memory.tmx

Step 2: Import to Pauhu (15 min)¶

from pauhu import Pauhu

pauhu = Pauhu(api_key="pk_live_...")

# Import Translation Memory
pauhu.tm.import_file(
    file="translation-memory.tmx",
    name="company-tm",
    format="tmx"
)

# Import Term Base
pauhu.tb.import_file(
    file="terminology.tbx",
    name="company-terms",
    format="tbx"
)

print("✅ Assets imported successfully")

Step 3: Update API Calls (1 hour)¶

# Before (MT provider example)
response = requests.post(
    "https://api.MT provider.com/v2/translate",
    data={"text": text, "target_lang": "FI"}
)

# After (Pauhu)
response = requests.post(
    "https://api.pauhu.com/v1/translate",
    json={"text": text, "target": "fi"},
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer pk_live_..."}
)

# Same response format, better quality

Step 4: Verify Quality (1 hour)¶

# Run comparison tests
from pauhu import Pauhu

pauhu = Pauhu(api_key="pk_live_...")

test_texts = [
    "Your sample text 1",
    "Your sample text 2",
    # Add 10-20 representative samples
]

for text in test_texts:
    result = pauhu.translate(text=text, target="fi")
    print(f"Input: {text}")
    print(f"Output: {result['text']}")
    print(f"Quality: {result['quality_score']}%")
    print("---")
