MemSource Technologies develops cloud translation software. It is an offshoot of a Charles University research project started in 2006 with the Globalization Department of Sun Microsystems, today part of Oracle. Its operations are based in Prague, the Czech Republic.

In early 2011 MemSource has launched the first version of its new product, MemSource Cloud, a cloud-based translation environment. It comprises centralized translation memory, terminology, and project management.

MemSource Cloud is primarily web-based but it also includes a light-weight desktop CAT tool, MemSource Editor, which is one of the very few workbenches that can run also on Macintosh and Linux besides Windows. A private cloud offering is also available, branded as MemSource Server.
