Crowd translation is a translation model that enables a mass of translators to work on the same job.
Traditionally a client can contact a very limited number of translation agencies or translators and finally hires only one for the job. With crowd translation, clients may hire a dozen, hundreds or even thousands of translators to work on a project at the same time.
Crowd Translation and Open Translation share many common points. In most cases they are just two terms describing the same thing from the different view points.
Translia is the pioneer in crowd translation.
