Key findings of the report include:

- DeepL is the most-used machine translation provider among LSCs, with 82% of them using its technology in 2024, far surpassing companies including Google (46%), Microsoft (32%), and Amazon AWS (17%). - DeepL's traction has grown significantly over the last 12 months, rising from third place in 2023 to the top provider in 2024. - This growth aligns with an increasing focus on AI within the industry overall, with 75% of LSCs receiving proactive customer inquiries about AI in the last six months.
