Achieve faster, smarter, and cost-effective localization with AI-powered tools — using your own API key or the built-in Locize AI service. Improve consistency without slowing teams down.
AI localization is the practice of adapting content to the cultural and linguistic context of your audience. It goes beyond direct translation — aiming to preserve meaning, intent, tone, and UI fit.
In Locize, AI is integrated into your existing translation workflow so teams can generate drafts faster, then review and refine with confidence.
A practical, step-by-step workflow you can apply to websites, apps, games, and product UI.
Add your OpenAI, Gemini, Mistral, or other provider key so you keep data ownership and can choose the model you prefer.
Pick the model that fits your quality, latency, and budget needs. For UI localization, results are often close to publish-ready — with review.
Provide instructions and context per project, language, namespace, and key to keep tone consistent and reduce back-and-forth during review.
Keep terminology consistent by continuing to use Locize’s glossary and translation memory features.
Translate single segments, run bulk actions, or automate via the automatic translation workflow.
Rephrase, shorten, or generate variants to match UI constraints and tone — then let translators review and finalize.
Keep up with fast product iteration without making localization a release blocker.
