Feature Request (Backend + Worker): Optional translation of transcriptions #6
Description
Background
Some users may want transcriptions to be translated automatically between Swedish and English. For example, an English interview might be transcribed and then translated to Swedish for further processing. This should be an optional post-processing step in the job pipeline.
Requested functionality
Worker:
• Add translation step after transcription
• Use MarianMT or equivalent model for:
• English → Swedish
• Swedish → English
• Return translated result alongside original text
Backend:
• Accept translate: true in job definition
• Allow users to choose target language (sv, en)
• Store translated version as a separate field or version
• API to retrieve both original and translated versions
UI (for reference):
• Option to enable translation when submitting a file
• Ability to toggle view between original and translated version
• Export translated version in all available formats
Priority:
Medium – valuable for many use cases, but should be optional and clearly labeled
