Four years into the GenAI era, every language services company has had to answer the same question: are you using AI? By now, the answer is almost universally yes, but how and to what extent AI is deployed varies widely from one business to the next.

In the latest ATC Language Industry Report Q1 2026, we map where the language services industry really stands – and help you to benchmark your own business.

We interviewed LSCs of different sizes, from smaller companies with a dozen employees to some of the top UK (and global) LSCs with hundreds of people on staff and dedicated tech teams.

Our research shows that the field is broadly split into two groups: the Innovators and the Followers – with a possible third group of Power User crystallising.

Each pathway has its own merits and challenges. So, what kind of LSC are you? And what specific opportunities can you tap into to help your business grow? Read the report to find out.
