What is Locize?
Locize bridges the gap between developers, product managers, and translators by providing a continuous localization platform. It connects your code and i18n setup with translators, delivering translation updates via CDN or API without requiring a full app redeploy. Developers maintain ownership in code and CI pipelines, while translators work in a dedicated UI with review workflows and quality checks.
The platform supports 150+ languages, multiple versions, and tenant-specific overrides, all managed from a single project. With AI-assisted translation, in-context editing, and integration with i18next and other i18n libraries, Locize streamlines the localization process for teams of all sizes.
