Most localization platforms act as gatekeepers: simple workflows are wrapped in layers of dashboards and dozens of unused integrations which you still have to pay for with per-seat and per-string taxes with insane markups. They have all the power which leaves you paying for overpriced enterprise bloatware. i18ner aims to flip this broken model upside-down.
i18ner is an AI-native localization platform, trying to fill the gap with a simple yet elegant approach: simplicity, transparency, and cost control. Gone are the days of being taxed on what you already pay for: you bring your own keys and skip per-string pricing which means no hidden markups or 10x inflation on the actual cost. With i18ner, you enjoy predictable pricing that puts power back into your hands: individual users, small teams, and enterprises alike.

Why i18ner exists
Traditional localization platforms act more like agencies and are built around human translation workflows, per-word and per-seat pricing, and enterprise-first features. This leaves users paying for bloated systems, opaque pricing, and tools that are not built with automation and ease-of-use in mind. The markup-heavy pricing does not help either and hides the real cost of translation.
Our approach
i18ner is fully AI-driven for initial translations, with user reviews to refine the output. We are not a marketplace or a localization agency rather an infrastructure, for collaborative, simple and user-friendly localization.
Connect your own API keys from Anthropic, DeepL, Google Translate or OpenAI. We grant you full control over your own API expenses and provide our platform as a service to perform localization.
Users get their very own Translation Memory tied to their subscription which grows over time to reduce redundant translations and improve consistency. The more you use i18ner, the better the context gets while reducing your API costs, a win-win.
