Translation & Localization — Canonical Workflow
Translation & Localization: provisional AI workflow implementation reference with candidate models, providers, tools, and architecture.
Overview
Translation and localization runs marketing content through a multi-step pipeline: a translation model produces a first draft using a domain-specific terminology glossary, a second model reviews for locale-specific tone, cultural appropriateness and brand-voice compliance, and high-stakes segments such as legal disclaimers and pricing copy are automatically flagged for a human translator review before publish. The workflow maintains a terminology database per locale that improves consistency across all translated assets over time.
