Building LocaleGuard — Human-reviewed AI translations that actually work.

The Problem SaaS founders scaling to Europe face a brutal choice: pay $5k–$50k per language for human translation agencies, or ship raw AI translations that destroy UX trust instantly. Wrong terminology, broken layouts, and security perception damage cause international churn rates to spike within days of launch. What I'm Thinking of Building LocaleGuard automates 80% of translation work, then routes high-risk UI strings (security keywords, long text, context-sensitive terms) to your team for 1-click human review. We flag mismatches between English and target languages, spatial constraint violations, and terminology drift before they ship—keeping your international UX pixel-perfect and trustworthy. Who It's For B2B SaaS founders and product managers at Series A–B companies (10–100 employees) scaling to 5+ European markets; teams using Phrase, Lokalise, or managing localization files directly.
