The CAT count-tool killer has arrived

Quote first.Build projects later.

Count native documents and bilingual files, analyze them directly against TMX or SDLTM memories, calculate repetitions, apply client-specific rates, and produce a polished quote—without creating a CAT project merely to discover the workload.

Why build the job before you can price it?

A client needs an answer now. The files are mixed. The TM is huge. Traditional CAT analysis may mean project setup, file preparation, language configuration and waiting—before you even know whether the opportunity is worth pursuing.

The old route

Set up first. Discover later.

Create the CAT project, import every file, attach memories, configure analysis, run it, then transfer the figures into a quote.

One orbit. Your real workload.

The file-format wheel keeps turning.

Translation projects rarely arrive in one tidy format. Word Counter Pro is built for the mixed reality: documents, presentations, spreadsheets, scanned-risk PDFs, websites, localization resources, DTP packages, CAT files, subtitles and structured text.

Questions, answered

Before you count.

Practical answers for translators, project managers and language companies.

Do I need to create a Trados or CAT project first?

No. Add supported native or bilingual files directly, count them, and—when you need memory leverage—analyze their source segments against TMX or SDLTM resources from the same workflow.

Is this only a word counter?

No. It combines configurable counting, exact repetition analysis, Trados-log match pricing, direct TM analysis, live quotation calculations, client profiles, reporting, currency conversion and invoicing.

Can it count entire folders?

Yes. Add Folder discovers supported files in the selected folder and its subfolders, while the Format Filter Rack controls which formats are accepted.

What happens with scanned PDFs?

The application flags likely scanned or non-extractable pages for review and carries the warning into applicable reports. OCR itself is not included in this build.

Can different clients have different rates?

Yes. Client profiles can store default rate, currency and unit. Match Calculator also supports reusable discount profiles for different fuzzy-match arrangements.
