How is Locize Different from the Alternatives?
When we started Locize, our goal was to go beyond being just another localization-as-a-service provider. We set out to deliver real value and innovation in several key areas:
Flexible Pricing Model
Our variable pricing grows with your success. You only pay for what you use — no more overpaying just because you’re close to the next plan tier.
Powerful & Flexible Instrumentation
Get started instantly with our one-liner script, or leverage the full power of i18next — our mature, flexible i18n framework. Our vibrant ecosystem ensures you’ll always find the right integration for your needs.
Built-in Versioning
Our experience with large-scale cloud projects taught us the importance of versioning and branches. Locize supports true versioning, so you can manage translations just like your code — enabling safe, organized, and reliable releases.
No Service Lock-In
We believe in earning your trust, not locking you in. You’re always free to export your translations and use them with i18next or any other compatible tool.
Expert Support
Locize is built and supported by the creators of i18next. You get direct access to the best expertise in the industry — there’s simply no better alternative. 😉
Seamless 3rd-Party Translation Integrations
We integrate with third-party translation services so you can benefit from their unique features:
- Finalize projects (add documents, etc.)
- Work with your preferred translators
- Approve translations
- Directly contact your translators
- ...and more
Multiple Namespaces & Files
Manage multiple files per project with ease — what we call namespaces. This flexibility is rare among translation management platforms.
Advanced Pluralization
Locize understands the complexities of pluralization in different languages. For example, Polish and Romanian require special rules for plurals. Locize tracks and calculates your translation progress accurately, respecting each language’s unique rules.
Multi-Tenant Functionality
Need to localize for multiple clients, brands, or customer-specific UIs? Locize’s multi-tenant support lets you manage all your customers, brands, or environments from a single account. Perfect for agencies, SaaS providers, or organizations with complex requirements, you can easily separate data, permissions, and workflows for each tenant — while keeping everything organized under one roof.
Beyond Translation Management
Locize is more than just a translation management tool. Stay organized and agile after your initial translation:
- Add new segments to live projects without replacing entire files or starting over
- Version your translation projects just like your applications—without extra costs
- Instantly update translations via our CDN, correct errors, or add new languages without redeploying your app
- Enable private CDN publishing for sensitive projects, secured by API key
- Order translations from a growing list of integrated services for faster, more affordable results
