Translation Management
Built by Developers, for Developers
We believe powerful developer tools shouldn't cost thousands per month.
The Problem
As developers building global applications, we kept running into the same frustrating issue: translation management tools were either too expensive or too complicated. Enterprise platforms charged $500-2000 per month for features we didn't need, while simple tools lacked the automation and AI capabilities that modern development requires.
We wanted something simple: a CLI tool that would scan our code, translate our strings with AI, and let us get back to building. When we couldn't find it, we built it ourselves.
Our Mission
Langctl exists to make translation management accessible to every developer and team, regardless of budget. We believe that:
Developer Experience Matters
Translation tools should fit into your workflow, not force you to adapt to theirs. That's why we built CLI-first.
Pricing Should Be Fair
You shouldn't pay thousands for features you don't use. Pay for translations, not seats or unnecessary enterprise features.
AI Should Be Accessible
AI-powered translations shouldn't be a luxury add-on. They should be included and available to everyone.
Setup Should Be Simple
Good tools don't require days of setup or dedicated onboarding. Install, configure, translate. That's it.
Why "Langctl"?
The name combines "lang" (language) with "ctl" (control), following the Unix tradition
of command-line tools. Just like kubectl controls
Kubernetes and systemctl controls systemd,
langctl gives you control over your translations.
Our Principles
Transparency First
Clear pricing, no hidden fees, no surprise charges. You know exactly what you're paying for.
Developer-Centric
We're developers building for developers. Every feature is designed with your workflow in mind.
Open Communication
We listen to feedback, iterate quickly, and keep our community informed. Your input shapes our roadmap.
Quality Over Features
We'd rather do a few things exceptionally well than many things poorly. Every feature we ship is polished and production-ready.
What's Next
We're just getting started. Here's what's on our roadmap:
- → Translation memory to reduce costs and improve consistency
- → Visual context for translators (screenshots, component previews)
- → CI/CD integrations for automated translation workflows
- → Self-hosted option for enterprises with strict data requirements
- → Plugin system for custom translation workflows
