Phrase integration for Google Drive
Automate and simplify your file-based translation process with the Phrase Google Drive integration.
Say goodbye to manual uploads, email chains, and disconnected workflows. Experience fast, high-quality translation that’s triggered the moment content is added to your Drive folders.
With this integration, new or updated files in selected Google Drive folders are automatically routed to Phrase for translation. AI translation, quality scoring, and human review (if needed) are applied based on your preferred workflow. Once complete, translations are delivered directly back to Drive, with no further manual steps required.
- Fully automated localization – connect content creation to delivery without developer involvement
- AI-enhanced translation – customizable workflows with AI translation, quality evaluation, and human-in-the-loop review
- Zero disruption for business users – let internal teams work in Drive while Phrase handles everything behind the scenes
From bottlenecks to automation: Transform how your teams handle translation
Without a dedicated integration, teams often face a disjointed, manual translation process. Files are uploaded and shared inconsistently, localization requests come through email or chat, and version control becomes a recurring problem. This leads to delays, increased costs, and frustration for both localization and content owners.
With the Phrase Google Drive integration, that complexity disappears. Files are automatically detected, routed through an intelligent translation workflow, and returned, accurate and on time without anyone needing to lift a finger. It’s a powerful way to enable global content delivery at scale, while keeping things simple for your teams.

The benefits of using Phrase
| Before Phrase | After Phrase |
| Files manually collected and uploaded to TMS or sent over email | New or updated files in Drive are automatically detected and sent for translation |
| Localization team chases content owners for the latest versions | Phrase detects changes to documents and re-routes only the updated content |
| Translation quality inconsistent and hard to track | AI-powered workflows evaluate quality and send only low-rated content for human review |
| Manual exports, uploads, and back-and-forth with vendors | Translations are automatically synced back to Google Drive |
| High dependency on localization teams for every request | Internal teams stay in Drive while Phrase handles localization in the background |
| Missed deadlines and scalability challenges | Always-on automation ensures faster turnaround and supports high content volumes |
