lingo.dev

lingo.dev (operating at lingo.dev) is a localization engineering platform engineered for software teams seeking scalable, AI-driven internationalization. Founded in 2024 by co-founder and CEO Max Prilutskiy and headquartered in San Francisco, California, lingo.dev redefines localization by shifting away from manual, fragmented translation workflows. Under the hood, the platform enables teams to configure stateful translation APIs—called from code, CLI, or CI/CD pipelines—with customizable glossaries, brand voice guidelines, and per-locale model chains. This eliminates siloed translation tools and human bottlenecks, automating instant translations while integrating directly into development workflows. The result? Developers and product teams can deploy culture-aware, high-quality translations at scale without sacrificing brand consistency. Backed by a $4.7M seed round led by Initialized Capital, lingo.dev positions itself as the first AI-powered localization engine designed to help companies internationalize from day one.
