ChatGPT vs. a localization platform: Which translation solution is right for your business?

Translation used to be a bottleneck for businesses looking to grow internationally. Thanks to AI, now it can happen in seconds, which changes how teams make decisions about localization. ChatGPT can produce quick translations for many everyday needs.

How to automate context management in translation

Most localization teams struggle with finding the right context. Translators jump between the TMS, Jira, Figma, Slack, and old docs just to understand a single string. Reviewers approve copy without ever seeing the screen it lives on. Developers spend hours every week explaining where text appears and what it must not break. All of this context switching in localization slows releases and drives up translation rework. On paper, it looks like “bad translation.” In reality, it

Localization Best Practices

The 5 best in-context editor (ICE) tools for localization quality

When translators work on a bunch of strings listed in spreadsheets and CSVs, they're essentially flying blind. Without seeing where these phrases appear, even experienced linguists struggle to make the right call on tone, length, and word choice.

The global app launch stack: DevOps, development, and localization

Launching an app globally isn’t just about shipping a build to the App Store or Google Play. A real global release depends on the tech stack for a global app launch — the set of development, localization, and DevOps tools that let teams ship updates across multiple languages and markets at the same time. This is where many teams hit the wall. Code might be ready, but translations lag behind. Marketing texts live in spreadsheets. Releases get delayed because localization happe

How AI is changing design-stage localization

Designers work in Figma. Developers work in GitHub. Localization teams work in localization software. Each team operates in isolation, creating context-switching delays that slow down your launch timelines. Design-stage localization changes this equation bringing translation into the design phase. And with AI integrated into your setup, this process can become even faster. Instead of waiting days for translations, designers get AI-translated strings in minu
