  • Share context

    The easiest and quickest way to provide translators with a context is using screenshots. In Lokalise project you can add screenshots and select an area on screenshots for each key that has to be translated. There is even an option to create or update screenshots automatically.

    Push text for translation from Figma to Lokalise in a matter of seconds, and pull it back once the translation is ready to quickly test all languages in your designs without going back and forth with product managers, translators and developers.

  • Designers

    Designers are able to continue working on their designs in Figma, whilst receiving the new translations directly into the fields in question, and seeing if different languages fit without even leaving the platform. All at the touch of a button.

  • Translators

    Translators are provided with screenshots of the location of the text to help with the context, simultaneously improving the precision of the translation as well as increasing the speed at which they can work.

  • Managers

    Managers can eliminate a ton of manual work by streamlining the collaboration of other team members involved to ensure continuous localization of the product. All you'll have to do is assign tasks to translators and approve multilingual designs delivered by a design team.
