locize connects software internationalization setups with developers, translators, and reviewers, then delivers translation updates through a CDN or API. Developers can synchronize keys and source strings through CLI or CI workflows, while translators and reviewers work in a dedicated interface with translation memory, in-context editing, configurable review workflows, and machine or generative AI translation. Listed integrations include i18next, React, Vue, Angular, Next.js, Node.js, Figma, iOS, Android, and support for PHP, Python, Java, and .NET. Translation changes can be delivered without a full app redeployment. The free plan is 0.00 USD per free and includes 100K standard CDN downloads per month, 2,000 words, two languages, five namespaces, and one user. Paid plans start at $7.00 USD per month, billed monthly, and a 14-day trial is listed. On fixed plans, exceeding 110% of included standard CDN volume automatically blocks the project; on Free, translations are automatically unpublished instead. locize states that it is subject to Swiss FADP and EU GDPR and offers a DPA covering both.
Who it is for
locize suits developers, managers, translators, and reviewers who need to coordinate localization updates with software workflows. The free plan is geared to small usage limits, while paid tiers list larger download, word, language, and team allowances.
