Easy and powerful localization via Phrase

Phrase is a new translation management system for developers, founded in 2012 and based in Hamburg, Germany. Their aim is to make it simple, fast and reliable to localize an app or website into multiple languages. We love seeing innovative startups in the translation space like Phrase, and now their solution is even more powerful, because they’ve added a simple integration with the Gengo API. Phrase gives customers an easy to use translation management system, where you can review translations and leave comments for translators.

Developers will be happy to hear that they can download their translations in many popular localization file formats (like Po, Yaml and others). So there’s no need to worry about structure, content formatting or other administration hassles. And two things make Phrase unique:

First, Phrase Context View, a cool in-app editor, allows translators to see the context of your website and simply click and translate text in-place on the page. Any work that they do, is automatically saved and placed in your app. This attention to context allows great-quality translations, because translators can see exactly where their text will fit.

Second, Phrase is now integrated with Gengo, so Phrase users can log in and order professional translations into 36+ languages at a click of a button. Within seconds, jobs are sent to our 25,000-strong, pre-tested translator team, who complete work quickly and at high quality. Zero admin, zero searching for translators, zero emails, zero time wasted. For flawless translation of complex or large websites and apps, we recommend using Gengo as a first pass, and carrying a second review with your internal team or asking your users to check the translation.

I love this kind of helpful integration that makes people’s lives easier. Their unique approach to localization is already helping people globalize and we’re pleased that their integration with Gengo’s translation API is helping to get them there.

Just like that, your site is transformed into a different language.
