This doesn't seem to be one of the main CAT Tools (yet?) but I will try anyway, don't be mad please. At the moment, I have 3 job offers in my inbox, each demanding to work with the Polyglot translation tool. I have paid my Google subscription but I can't find it anywhere. Does anybody here know what and where it is?

I have only been able to work in Polyglot after clients gave me specific access to it. I don't think you can access this tool yourself unless it is part of a larger project in which the client uses Polyglot. It's not like the Google Translate Tool where anyone who has a certain type of Google account could access it.
It's a terrible tool.

Ok, thanks. as I am not really very enthusiastic about on-line CAT's anyway, I think I will let it rest for now.

Thanks, it seems to be an online tool only, not really my thing.

I've never used an online CAT tool that wasn't awful. They're always unfinished, with more "Beta" mentions than functioning features, and are just much more limited versions than their offline counterparts.

Sorry, that is an agency website, not related to the CAT tool.
Polyglot is an internal tool so you'll get access if you are working on projects for that end client.
I'd say you shouldn't dismiss starting a collaboration and working with this tool just because it is web based. Why not see for yourself? What's there to lose? You can always back down later.
