AI agent for translators
Reviewer Edit Reconciliation Agent
Produce one merged, consistent version that resolves all reviewer conflicts.
What it does
When two reviewers edit the same translation, their changes can overlap or contradict each other, and one may break the client's glossary. This agent compares the reviewers' edits segment by segment against the original translation. It sorts them into agreed edits, conflicting edits and edits that break the glossary or style guide. For conflicts, it proposes a resolution with the reasoning, such as the term the client has approved or the version that matches the source meaning most closely. It builds a merged version for the translator to review, and rechecks the merged text for new inconsistencies introduced by the combination. It never accepts changes alone. The translator approves the final version. Edge case: an edit that fixes a real mistranslation is marked as essential even if it conflicts with a style choice.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides
It accepts edits both reviewers share, and for conflicts it favors the version that matches the source meaning and the glossary. Anything unresolved goes to the translator.
- Accept shared edits automatically for review
- Prefer the glossary term over a reviewer preference
- Treat an edit that corrects meaning as essential
- Send unresolved conflicts to the translator
