Open Translation Client (Open TLC) is a free and open source web-based CAT-Tool designed for professional translators, teachers, and students. Initially developed as a master thesis project at Anhalt University of Applied Sciences, Germany, Open TLC focuses on user-friendliness and accessibility. It supports multiple save file formats, including industry standards such as XLIFF 1.2 and 2.0 as well as a our own self defined JSON-based save file format. Being a web-based application, it works seamlessly on any device with a browser, whether it's a desktop, tablet, or smartphone.

Open TLC stores all translation projects locally using your browser's own IndexedDB database, ensuring full control over your data without relying on external servers. Users can export projects in JSON or XLIFF formats for backup or sharing purposes. To prevent data loss from unforeseen issues like cache clearing or device failures, regular backups are recommended.

Open TLC supports JSON, XLIFF 1.2, and XLIFF 2.0 formats, making it compatible with other CAT-Tools and industry standards. It provides a clear and intuitive structure for translation projects, including details like source and target languages, creation date, and translation segments. It also supports Translation Memories and TMX files aswell as Terminology databases and TBX files.
