AI Connector 17.7

Friday, October 2nd 2026

We have just released v17.7 of the AI connector for Translation Manager. Most of the work in this one is under the hood, and it makes translations faster and a bit cheaper.

dotnet add package Jumoo.TranslationManager.AI

Fewer requests

In 17.7 the connector batches things up better. It gathers everything on a page together and sends it to the AI in as few requests as it can. In our tests that reduced the number of requests by around 70%, and cut the time spent waiting on the AI by more than half.

Lower costs

Fewer requests means we send the prompt far fewer times, and in our tests the input tokens for a job dropped by around 40%.

The overall saving is smaller than that, because most AI providers charge a lot more for the tokens they send back than the ones you send them, and the translated text itself doesn't get any shorter. Across our test runs we have seen around an 8% reduction in token costs.

More reliable

A few things that will hopefully go unnoticed:

  • Fewer retries. When an AI provider is busy, the connector now makes far fewer retry requests before it gets an answer.
  • Longer timeouts. Large translations can take a while, so each request now gets up to five minutes to finish.
  • Better splitting of long content. Very long text is split at the end of a sentence, and HTML keeps all of its tags when it is split up.
  • Complete translations only. If the AI stops part way through a translation, the connector reports it as an error, so you only ever get whole translations.

If you translate really big pages and the defaults are too short for you, the timeouts can be changed in appsettings.json:

{
  "Translations": {
    "AI": {
      "AttemptTimeout": "00:05:00",
      "TotalTimeout": "00:20:00"
    }
  }
}

Get it

The update is available on NuGet now.

dotnet add package Jumoo.TranslationManager.AI

The AI connector is included in the main Jumoo.TranslationManager package. You can install this version on its own now, and it will be included in the next Jumoo.TranslationManager release (v17.9.3).

You can see the full list of changes in the release notes, and there's more on setting up the connector in the docs.

Enjoy!
