Transifex is a platform for you to manage your localization efforts, giving you complete control of who will translate your content and how.
Order wizard
If you need translations but are not working with translation vendors or community translators, you can order translations from one of Transifex’s translation partners. Read more about how to order translations here.
In-house and Freelance translators
If you have in-house or freelance translators and reviewers you’re working with, you’ll need to invite them to your Translation team and give them the corresponding roles (translators or reviewers). Read more about how to assign user roles to your collaborators here.
Community
If you prefer working with your community, Transifex offers a few ways to do so:
Make your project public, accept requests from the community members to join, and assign them as translators and reviewers.
Make your project private and invite your community members as translators/reviewers.
LSPs and Translation agencies
You might partner with a translation agency to handle your translations in Transifex. From our experience, there are two ways to work with translation agencies:
They can work offline Transifex - they will push and pull the files from and back to Transifex.
They work within Transifex - then they’ll be able to take advantage of such features as Translation Memory, Glossary, Communication tools, etc., and you’ll have more control and visibility of the overall translation progress.
Mix and match
Many of our clients mix and match these methods: for example, they make initial localization efforts with their community and have professional translators review the translations. Freelance translators work on their app projects, while a translation agency works on the website translation.
This is all possible by calibrating your translation teams and assigning them to corresponding translation projects within your Transifex organization.
