Segmova review
A free web CAT tool with memory, terminology, QA, previews, and AI assistance.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Segmova is a browser-based computer-assisted translation platform for professional translators and localization teams. It supports document import and export, translation memory with automatic segment matching, terminology management through termbases and glossaries, automated quality checks, concordance search, live previews in the original document layout, autosave, and account-backed storage. The web deployment suits translators who want to work with documents in a browser and keep translation memories, glossaries, documents, and translations associated with an account.
The published plans show a free structure during the private beta. Starter includes three active projects, every document format, Translation Memory and termbase, and community support. Pro adds every document format, Translation Memory and termbase, AI assistance with the user's own API key, priority support, and early access to new features. Enterprise is intended for organizations needing custom deployment options, custom integrations, custom SLA options, and a dedicated account manager. Billing systems are planned for activation upon full release, while Enterprise pricing is custom.
Segmova's strongest fit is straightforward document translation that benefits from memory, terminology controls, QA checks, and layout previews without a paid subscription during beta. Its format coverage includes DOCX, PDF, HTML, SRT, XLIFF, TXT, XLSX, JSON, and XML, while AI assistance connects through Anthropic or OpenAI API keys. The trade-offs are a web-only workflow, no offline desktop option, and a currently narrow documented integration footprint. Translators and small localization teams seeking a free browser CAT tool should consider Segmova; teams requiring broader collaboration or integration capabilities should compare alternatives before adopting it.
