UI Translations

Translate exactly what the user sees

A visual layer binds every string to the element it renders in. Wording, length and tone are right the first time, no blind strings, no clipped buttons.

Everything a UI string needs

Shared label memory

Save, Cancel, Settings and friends stay identical across every screen and platform.

Placeholder safety

Variables and ICU plurals are protected inline and can never be deleted by accident.

Platform-aware

One model drives web and desktop wording in step.

100+ languages

Including right-to-left scripts with mirrored preview.

In context

See the screen, not the string

Visual context editor

Each string is pinned to its on-screen component, so you translate a button, tooltip or heading knowing exactly where it lands and how much room it has.

Character & line limits

Set a max length per key and watch a live counter as you type. Strings that would overflow a control or truncate in a menu are flagged before the build.

Live component previews

A rendered preview updates as you translate, catching wrapping, truncation and awkward line breaks instantly instead of after a screenshot review.

How it works

From source to shipped in four steps

1

Connect your UI

Link your repo, Figma file or design system in a couple of clicks.

2

Strings sync in context

Every key is bound to the screen and element it renders in.

3

Translate with preview

Translators see length, tone and layout live as they type.

4

Publish length-safe

Ship copy that fits the first time, on every breakpoint.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Do translators need design tools?

No. The visual preview runs in the browser, so anyone on the team sees exactly how a string renders without opening Figma or the codebase.

How are length limits enforced?

Each string inherits the character budget of the element it lives in. WordBeam warns the moment a translation would overflow a button, label or tab.

Does this work with RTL languages?

Yes. Arabic, Hebrew and other RTL scripts render in a mirrored preview so directionality and alignment are correct before you publish.

Can I update copy without a new build?

Hosted UI strings can be edited and published instantly. For bundled strings, changes sync back to your repo on the next release.
