Drop a DOCX or XLSX, pick the languages, and walk away with up to fifty terms in a clean glossary you can hand off the same day.
How it works
Pull a DOCX or XLSX into the box, or browse for one. Files up to 10 MB. We delete the upload within seven days.
Before picking any terms, the tool reads the document to figure out what it is — legal, medical, technical, marketing, finance — and uses that read to decide which words count as terminology and which are everyday language.
A formatted glossary: subject area on the cover, a metadata block, and up to fifty source-target pairs in a sorted table. Opens in Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice.
Why this exists
Up to five glossaries every twenty-four hours from one network. The full SnapIntel workflow is a click away if you need it, but this tool stands on its own.
We read the whole document before picking any terms — not the filename, not the first paragraph. The same approach runs inside paid SnapIntel projects, so the terminology you see here is the same terminology you'd get on a paid run.
DOCX is what translation teams actually exchange. Your glossary opens in any word processor, edits like any document, and imports cleanly into TM tools that read DOCX glossaries.
We keep an anonymous fingerprint of your network connection so the free tool stays fair for everyone, and we keep only a short text excerpt for abuse review. Generated glossaries are deleted seven days after creation.
What's in the file
One DOCX with the structure translators expect: a cover line, a metadata block, the subject-area note, the term table, and a SnapIntel sign-off at the bottom.
Limits
Larger files come back with a clear error before any reading starts.
If your document is longer, we read the first 50,000 words and tell you in the result.
Enough to preview any document. The paid plan supports larger glossaries.
Anonymous limit per network. Sign up for unlimited generations on the SnapIntel free plan.
Use cases
For agencies
Drop the source file the moment a brief lands in your inbox. Fifteen seconds later you have a term count, the subject area, and a clean DOCX you can attach to the quote — without pulling a project manager off billable work.
For freelancers
Stop scrolling through PDFs to spot recurring vocabulary. Run the document, edit the result in Word for thirty seconds, and start translating with a glossary already in hand. Faster, more consistent, and your editor will thank you.
For corporate teams
Generate a baseline glossary for a recurring document type — board updates, compliance notices, product brochures — and circulate the DOCX as the reference for everyone who localizes that material into a partner language.
For researchers and editors
Use single-language mode (no target language) to extract the subject-area vocabulary of a research paper, a journalism feature, or an internal report. The output is a vocabulary index you can use in editing, indexing, or content audits.
