Tolgee

About Tolgee

Tolgee is an open-source localization platform built around a specific insight about why machine translation of software goes wrong: the model is usually handed a bare string with no idea where it appears. Tolgee's in-context editing puts the translation UI inside your running application, so a translator modifies text where it is rendered and the platform captures a screenshot and the surrounding context with the key — and that context is then fed to the AI translator, which is why its output tends to be usable rather than merely grammatical. Brand context and glossaries constrain terminology, and an AI playground lets you test translation behaviour before committing it across a project. For developers there are JavaScript SDKs, a CLI, a REST API, a Figma plugin, webhooks, one-click screenshots, branching on higher tiers, and an MCP server so an assistant can query and manage translations directly. Import and export work through the UI or the CLI, so it fits a CI pipeline as easily as a translator's browser. Everything is open source with a self-hosted option alongside the cloud service, and there is a genuinely free tier rather than a trial. Paid plans are drawn in included keys and seats rather than per-user pricing, which suits a team where most seats are occasional translators.
