Globally accurate localization for structured content
Unify tools, automate workflows, and scale structured documentation with built-in quality control.
Focus on content, not translation
In many organizations, authoring and translation live in disconnected tools, relying on manual exports and imports. Technical authoring teams often depend on a single language vendor, which limits visibility and creates lock-in. Without the right setup, writers end up managing translation instead of content, and the process quickly stops scaling.
How Phrase supports technical authoring teams
Works with your authoring tools
Phrase integrates with modern authoring environments, including DITA-based CCMS and knowledge management systems. Content flows directly from the authoring tool into automated translation workflows, without manual exports or custom scripting.
No added work for authoring teams
Phrase removes localization tasks from the authoring workflow. Translation projects are created, routed, and updated automatically in the background, so writers do not need to manage vendors, files, or language operations.
Quality control at scale
Centralized translation memories, enforced terminology, automated QA, and quality scoring help maintain technical accuracy across all languages. This is especially important in regulated industries, where documentation errors can delay market entry or create compliance risk.
Built for collaboration
Phrase provides a centralized platform where your preferred language service providers are automatically assigned to new translation jobs and given the context they need to work efficiently. This reduces back-and-forth, improves consistency, and keeps accountability clear. Phrase is vendor-neutral, so you can choose the right providers for each market.
Built for enterprise scale, speed, and security
Phrase delivers 99.9% uptime and zero-downtime deployments. With SSO, role-based access, audit logs, and certifications including ISO 27001, SOC 2, and GDPR compliance, Phrase is ready for even the most demanding development environments.
