Tolgee is an open-source localization platform for app translation with in-context editing, context-aware AI translation, and team collaboration. Cloud, self-hosted, and enterprise options.
Tolgee is an open-source localization platform for teams that want to translate product text without pushing every change through a developer workflow. It combines in-app editing, context-aware AI translation, and collaboration tools for web and mobile localization.
The product is built around JavaScript and popular frameworks such as React, Vue, Angular, and Svelte, with additional support surfaced on the pricing page for web and mobile SDKs, the Figma plugin, REST API, CLI-based import/export, and content delivery. Tolgee also offers self-hosted deployment, cloud plans, and an enterprise option for larger organizations.
Tolgee’s browser plugin lets non-developers edit translations, extract context, or generate screenshots inside the app itself. The plugin is available for Chrome and Firefox and is intended to work on a production environment.
The JavaScript SDKs automatically collect context when keys are created or updated. That context is then reused to support better AI translation results.
Tolgee can create screenshots with translation keys highlighted, which helps translators understand where strings appear in the product.
The pricing page lists translation memory, machine translations, auto translation, AI translator and Brand context, AI playground, and glossaries as localization features.
Tolgee supports import and delivery workflows through the UI, CLI, REST API, and content delivery options, plus custom content storage for AWS S3 and Azure Blob Storage.
The pricing page also documents branching, activity logs, tasks, labels, granular permissions, Slack integration, and webhooks for team-based localization work.
Use Tolgee when engineers want translators or product teams to edit copy directly in a running app rather than routing every request through a ticket for a developer.
Use the JavaScript SDKs when a team needs context to travel with the string, especially for UI text that is hard to understand without seeing where it appears.
Use the browser plugin and one-click screenshots when translators need visual references and highlighted keys to review wording accurately.
Use the CLI, REST API, UI import/export, or content delivery flows when localization needs to plug into an existing release pipeline or storage setup.
Use the plan features such as branching, tasks, Slack integration, and granular permissions when multiple people collaborate on the same localization project.
Tolgee offers a Free cloud plan by default, plus paid cloud tiers, self-hosted deployment, and enterprise options. The pricing page shows Free, Team, Business, and Advanced cloud plans, with an Enterprise option handled through contact sales.
Tolgee supports in-context translation through its browser plugin and native SDKs. The plugin can be used in a production app to modify translations, extract context, or generate screenshots, while the SDKs provide automatic context extraction and one-click screenshots.
Tolgee’s JavaScript SDKs automatically extract context when keys are created or updated, and that context is then used for AI translation. The pricing page also mentions AI translator, Brand context, AI playground, and glossary features on higher tiers.
The pricing page says Tolgee supports standard localization features, automation and machine translation, web and mobile SDKs, the Figma plugin, the REST API, CLI import/export, and cloud content delivery options such as custom content storage.
The source material does not list every setup requirement or limit, but it does describe one-click screenshots, translation memory, branching, granular permissions, tasks, and Slack integration as part of its workflow and plan features.
