It is a 0–100 rating transglot produces for a translation, backed by a list of specific findings, not a certification, and not a substitute for reading the findings.

Anyone reading a score and deciding what to do about it.
What happens next
The quality score is a 0–100 rating that transglot produces for a translation, alongside a list of specific findings, each with a severity. The scorecard groups those findings using the industry-standard MQM categories so they can be compared with other tools' reports.
The categories are the standard five:
Accuracy: the translation does not convey the source meaning.
Fluency: grammar, spelling or punctuation problems in the target language.
Terminology: a term departs from your glossary.
Style: awkward, off-register or inconsistent phrasing.
Locale convention: placeholders, plural categories, length limits, number and date formatting.
Two things the score is not. It is not an external certification: it is our assessment, expressed in a shared vocabulary so it can be compared. And it is not a gate: a low score does not stop anything shipping. The findings are what you act on; the score is the summary you report.
A score only exists for translations a quality check has actually looked at. Run a check to get one.
