About Localizely
Localizely is a hosted translation management system that organizes software translation projects. Teams upload localization files, invite translators and reviewers, assign tasks and keep different app versions in branches.
The product is positioned for mobile developers, particularly those using Flutter, Android and iOS, but also supports web apps. It provides collaboration with feedback and task updates in one place, automation of repetitive steps through a REST API and integrations such as GitHub, and views for developers, product managers, localization managers, marketers and translators.
Localizely is proprietary software delivered as a cloud service. The site advertises a free-forever option with no credit card, along with paid plans listed on its pricing page. It suits small to mid-sized product teams that want to release new features in multiple languages without localization bottlenecks.
