Trans-Calc is a very simple rate calculator for freelance translators.

Translation agencies often apply word discounts depending on translation memory matches. Therefore, it's not always very straightforward to calculate your total rate for an assignment.

A typical discount matrix from an agency can look like this:

ICE match -> 25% of rate
100% match -> 25% of rate
95-99 Fuzzy match -> 30% of rate
50-94 Fuzzy match -> 60% of rate
50-0 New words -> 100% of rate

With Trans-Calc, you can define specific matrices for each client, and insert the word count for each type of match.
