Show HN: Evaluating Local LLMs as language translators for my app

Based, Lector, a FOSS self-hosted language reader (with a cloud option) works in show hn launch.

Profile

This is my first attempt at running an eval of this nature so would love some methodology feedback.I can't guarantee the sources weren't already in the model's inputs without getting novel translations from native speakers, but from my experience using the top models, they feel very accurate. Even encountering somewhat obscure texts from a relatively small language the translations generally beat Google Translate for proper idiomatic meaning.

Within the show hn launch space, the company focuses on its core offering rather than a broad product line.

Directory data places it at the Show HN launch stage.
