About the app

Trados Analyse was the winning idea chosen by you in a competition to develop something Trados Studio users wanted the most. It was based on a simple premise, "get me an analysis as quickly as possible without having to use Studio at all!" It does this and more.

When you install the application it does two things:

It creates a new view in Studio for analysing files, and
It creates a standalone app that does the same thing without Studio running at all

Features

drag and drop files, or zip files, for analysis
use Project Templates to quickly analyse files based on specific customer or domain resources
optionally analyse without the need for a TM at all
uses the standard Studio reporting formats
offers a simplified CSV report format
offers "copy to clipboard" to quickly paste the analysis into an email
introduces options for reporting by line
