Context is crucial for software localization as it allows translators to understand the content in its proper context and thus produce an accurate translation. Without context, a software translation can be inaccurate and lead to user confusion or errors. In some cases, the context can completely change the meaning of what is being translated, so it is essential to have a good understanding of the text's context before starting the localization process.
In June 2023, we released our own Tolgee AI Translator.
It doesn't ignore context like other traditional machine translators, which makes it great for translating especially short texts. Tolgee Translator understands the context of the strings used in your app: that's why it can provide the best results.
Throughout autumn 2023, we refined the translator further, including, for example, the language formality feature. And now, we are taking another step closer to the autonomous software translation, adding a couple of new features, which make the results of Trolgee Translator even more accurate.
We're excited to announce the release of a new feature, AI Translation Customization, so you can improve the translation by providing a description of your project or adding a language-specific note.
Dear Tolgee Users,
In the past year of 2023, Tolgee made a significant step forward, introducing many new features and making the whole project more robust. We must reflect these company and product developments into the pricing to align with the new product state and the company's business targets.
You have probably noticed how we talk differently with friends than with bosses. That's language formality – a powerful aid in how we express ourselves. This article is your guide to understanding why it matters in software translation. Throughout this article, we'll dive into the role of language formality, particularly in software localization using machine translation, shedding light on how to work with formality levels in Tolgee.
Recently, we've received many requests from our users to simplify the update of translations on production, and now we have an answer. Say Hi to Tolgee Content Delivery, a fast and reliable way to keep your translations independent of your code! Also introducing Webhooks for more automation options.
After a little over 2 years, we decided to freshen up the Tolgee brand, including our logo, website and platform's user interface. We value your suggestions and want to provide the best experience for our users. So, we rolled up our sleeves and gave Tolgee a little refresh to not feel so old-school.

It's the year 2023, and most of the companies developing localized apps spend a massive amount of time and money on localization. For the uninitiated, localization might look simple. But it's not. Until now, the results of machine translators were not good enough to be used in public-facing apps. But that's about to change.
With the introduction of Next.js 13 and the app router featuring React server components, there has been a strong push to enable Tolgee to work within this new paradigm.
Considering the app router is still in beta and Next.js API adjustments might occur, we opted for this article (instead of creating an npm package right away) to explain how Tolgee can work with the server.
