What is Microsoft Translator AI?

Microsoft Translator is a cloud-based translation service that converts text, speech, and real-time conversations between supported languages. It covers over 100 languages and dialect variants, making it useful for business communication, travel, customer support, and content localisation. The tool integrates into Microsoft products like Teams, Office, and Edge, but also works standalone through a web interface. It's designed for both individuals who need occasional translations and organisations that require bulk processing or API access.
