Market Opportunity
Every SaaS company eventually goes global. Website and app localization involves translating UI strings, help docs, landing pages, and error messages — while maintaining brand voice. Technical localization is a specialized, premium-priced service.
The Idea
Offer website and app localization for SaaS and tech companies. Handle UI string translation, Help Center localization, landing page adaptation, and email template translation. Use Lokalise or Phrase for string management, AI for first-pass translation, and human review for UX-appropriate language. Charge per project or ongoing localization maintenance.
Key to Success
- Learn localization platforms (Lokalise, Phrase, Crowdin) — technical integration knowledge is the moat
- Create a 'Localization Style Guide' template capturing brand voice, terminology, and cultural adaptations per language
- Offer continuous localization — new strings auto-translated and reviewed weekly as the product updates
