What Transifex is
Transifex is a localization platform for translating and managing multilingual software, websites, apps, and other digital content. Transifex AI uses translation memory, glossaries, style guides, and string context to create translations aligned with a brand. Its Translation Quality Index scores work in real time and can route content for review or automatically approve it above a selected threshold. Teams can manage work with custom workflows, branching, tasks, string discussions, reports, and human review. The platform supports more than 46 file formats, including Android XML, Apple strings, JSON, XLIFF, Office documents, and subtitles. Integrations include GitHub, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, Figma, Sketch, Contentful, Zendesk, HubSpot, and Slack, alongside API, webhooks, SDKs, and CLI support. Transifex Live can publish website translation updates without a deployment step; SDKs and over-the-air delivery support codebases and CI/CD workflows. Security controls include single sign-on, enforced two-factor authentication, roles and permissions, and listed compliance with SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and the EU AI Act. A 15-day free trial is offered; paid pricing starts at $135/mo on an annual basis.
