Slightly exaggerated, it seems. They won 100,000 in free AWS credits and used those.

That said, I'm happy to hear that they have produced great results for privacy-preserving offline translation with deep learning and GPU acceleration. Maybe one day, we can have something similar ship with Linux, similar to LibriVox and its speech AI.
