{"id":84681,"title":"Lingo.dev – Automated AI localization for multilingual software","tagline":"Lingo.dev helps dev teams do perfect software localization in minutes instead of weeks.","body":"**TL;DR** \n\n[Lingo.dev](http://Lingo.dev) (formerly Replexica) automates the localization process end-to-end. It produces authentic translations instantly and eliminates translation management and manual work. Most importantly, it lets teams avoid the back-and-forth typically seen when working with localization agencies. Watch our demo [here](https://youtu.be/9hwzNfzlMFk).\n\n**Why is this important?** \n\nAs you know, 74% of internet users aren't fluent in English. This forces companies to localize software to multiply the number of customers they onboard. However, the legacy localization process is manual, with bottlenecks caused by back-and-forth between developers and translation agencies. This costly process blocks delivery for 1-14 days and slows down millions of teams worldwide.\n\n**Our solution**\n\n[Lingo.dev](http://Lingo.dev) AI automates software localization:\n\n\\- Analyzes the product and its specifics\n\n\\- Sends automated pull requests with translations\n\n\\- Supports 60+ languages (and growing)\n\n\\- Unlike Google Translate / ChatGPT, creates authentic translations tailored to the product that native speakers expect\n\n[Lingo.dev](http://Lingo.dev) helps teams do localization 100x faster and ship to production more often without bottlenecks.\n\nSo far, customers have processed over 3M+ words on our platform, with our top customer localizing their software in 41 languages!\n\n**Ask**\n\nIf you're building a multilingual product – we'd be happy to automate localization for your team and make you successful in acquiring many more customers worldwide.\n\nOur website: [https://](https://replexica.com)[lingo.dev](http://Lingo.dev) \n\nTalk to us: \u003chttps://lingo.dev/go/call\u003e \n\nAnd if you know dev teams struggling with software localization – let them know about [Lingo.dev](http://Lingo.dev), we would love to help!\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=84681\u0026key=user_uploads/1992394/f7a3c897-2f53-4aba-ab97-d69aa351f261)\n\n**Team**\n\n[Veronica](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vrcprl/) and [Max](https://www.linkedin.com/in/maxprilutskiy/), [Lingo.dev](http://Lingo.dev)’s founders, met six years ago at work. Veronica has an AI and data science background. Max has an engineering background, having led an elite frontend team at a European unicorn.\n\nBoth experienced localization problems firsthand while working at startups and enterprise companies and while bootstrapping a SaaS with customers from over 20 countries. This shared experience led them to create [Lingo.dev](http://Lingo.dev) with the mission to let every software become multilingual (and global) from day one, with zero effort.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=84681\u0026key=user_uploads/1989733/dfd03586-1d6f-4747-b6fc-e0d84f5022a5)\n\n","slug":"M1p-lingo-dev-automated-ai-localization-for-multilingual-software","created_at":"2024-10-10T18:18:35.695Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T05:23:08.375Z","total_vote_count":60,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/M1p-lingo-dev-automated-ai-localization-for-multilingual-software","share_image_url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/media/?type=post\u0026id=84681\u0026key=user_uploads/1992394/f7a3c897-2f53-4aba-ab97-d69aa351f261","company":{"id":30060,"name":"Lingo.dev","slug":"lingodotdev","url":"https://lingo.dev","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/8a284047c475d06365013890a991877b3bdad21e.png","batch":"Fall 2024","industry":"B2B","tags":["Developer Tools","B2B","International","Infrastructure","AI"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/30060"}}
