TransPerfect

This repository indexes TransPerfect, the world's largest privately held provider of language and AI services, with 2025 billed revenues of $1.32 billion (+7% YoY), 160+ global offices, 30+ years in business, 10,000+ clients including 90% of the Fortune 500, and the 6,000-organization GlobalLink platform footprint. TransPerfect was founded in 1992, is headquartered in New York, and is led by President and CEO Phil Shawe with Co-CEO Jin Lee.

The corporate positioning, drawn verbatim from transperfect.com: "Intelligent Performance: However you define success, TransPerfect delivers it with technology and expertise — any market, any language."

Why this repo is thin

TransPerfect is a sales-led services and technology company without a unified developer portal. The only public REST API with documented endpoints, authentication, SDKs, and a CLI is GlobalLink Strings (formerly Applanga, retained as api.globallinkstrings.com/v1/api). The flagship GlobalLink TMS, Web, Portal, CCMS, Now, Media, Live, TV, Share, Scribe, Voice, Translate & Review, Write, and Tower LLM modules are described as enterprise platforms with "100+ pre-built connectors with a conversational MCP interface" — but none publish an OpenAPI specification, public reference, or self-service developer onboarding. MediaNEXT has no public technical surface. The TransPerfect/globallink GitHub repository (a Drupal connector) has not been updated since 2016.

This repo documents what is public and flags the absences rather than fabricating specs that do not exist.
