GAC Translate is an AI-powered tool that allows Government of Canada employees to upload documents and receive translations from most world languages, handling information up to the Protected B classification. It was originally built to help staff quickly assess whether documents containing unknown or personal content required official translation, and has since expanded to all Global Affairs Canada users. Users are informed that AI is involved in the translation process.
