Connect Lokalise to GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or Azure Repos and strings sync automatically on every push. Keep design-stage localization connected through Figma. For teams building with AI agents: the Lokalise MCP server gives Cursor, Claude, and any MCP-compatible tool direct access to your translation project without leaving the editor. REST API, CLI, and webhooks cover every other integration pattern from build scripts to custom pipeline automation.
Once Lokalise is connected, localization runs with every sprint. New strings are translated by AI, routed through review on configurable rules, and exported back to your branch — without a ticket, a Slack message, or a developer involved. Teams report 37% shorter release cycles.
Lokalise AI translates new strings automatically as they are added to the project. Custom AI profiles use translation memory and glossaries to produce output consistent with previous releases. AI translation reaches acceptance rates above 90% on custom profiles, reducing the volume of content that needs human review. AI scoring flags only what needs review.

How does Lokalise integrate with software development workflows?
Lokalise integrates with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure Repos so that translation tasks are created automatically when new strings are pushed to a repository. Lokalise also integrates with Figma for design-stage localization, Jira for project tracking, and CI/CD pipelines for automated pull and push of translation files. Developers set up the integration once and the localization pipeline runs alongside the build process without manual intervention.
What is over-the-air (OTA) localization and how does it work in Lokalise?
Over-the-air localization allows mobile app copy to be updated and translated without submitting a new app version to the app store. Lokalise’s OTA SDK delivers translation updates to live apps in real time. This means teams can fix copy, add translations, and launch in new languages between releases, without a development sprint for each change.
Does Lokalise support continuous localization for agile software teams?
Yes. Lokalise is designed for continuous localization — the model where translation runs in parallel with development rather than as a separate phase after feature completion. Git-based sync, automated workflow triggers, and branch-based project management let software teams localize at sprint cadence. Teams using continuous localization report 37% shorter release cycles.
What programming languages and file formats does Lokalise support?
Lokalise supports SDKs for iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, PHP, Ruby, Python, Go, and NodeJS. It supports over 50 file formats including JSON, XLIFF, PO, ARB, RESX, and Strings files. The REST API allows integration with any system that does not have a native Lokalise connector.
How does Lokalise handle translation quality for software strings?
Lokalise applies quality assurance checks at string level: glossary enforcement ensures key product terms translate consistently, translation memory reuses approved translations from previous builds, and AI LQA scores flag likely errors before human review. Review workflows with configurable statuses (translated, reviewed, verified) let localization managers sign off on strings before they reach production.
Can AI translation tools really replace human translators? Not quite, but they can still save you tons of time and effort. At Lokalise, we tested the top ten AI translation tools to find out which ones are worth your attention. Whether you need quick document translations, website localization, or real-time multilingual support, we’ve got you covered.

What if your translations updated the moment your code changed? Continuous localization is a DevOps-aligned workflow where translation is integrated into the software development lifecycle (SDLC). Unlike traditional waterfall methods, it automates the synchronization between code repositories and translation platforms, so global content updates in real time as new code is pushed to production. This removes translation latency, keeps context intact, and ensures every market sees th

When a popular productivity app launched in Japan, users were left puzzled and frustrated. The app missed the mark for quality translations, used the wrong date formats, and pushed unfamiliar cultural references. The backlash poured in: uninstalls, poor ratings, and damaged brand reputation. This is a glimpse of what happens when your software skips localization or gets it wrong. More than translating languages, software localization makes your app useful for users acr
