Hey! As we say bye to 2023, Crowdin wants to share a quick snapshot of our year. This article briefly examines the cool things we did – new tools, features, and some exciting moments. We'll tell you about the path of our AI Assistant as the best co-pilot for localization projects, professional translation memory, string-based projects, and more. So, join us for a speedy tour of 2023 at Crowdin.

Today we are happy to announce the invitation to the beta version of our new app – an AI chatbot built on OpenAI's ChatGPT API. Large language models are the hottest topic around our newsfeeds these days. While companies are still figuring out how to use them most efficiently, it is clear that this technology will change the way people and companies work in the near future. Crowdin has been experimenting with AI and ML for years to offer the most advanced technologies and make sure we enable our users to be most productive while doing global business. AI chatbot built on OpenAI's ChatGPT API we're showing today is just one of the first successful experiments we're excited to share. This is an private beta, and you're welcome to join.

If year-end reviews have taught us anything, it's that people enjoy quick, five-minute read summaries that condense a full year of development and accomplishments. So here it is, a short summary of 2022 at Crowdin. This year, we’ve focused on ensuring you can make your whole company multilingual as easily as if there’s still one language. That’s why we already have 450+ apps and integrations, so in addition to localizing your product, you can automate the translation of your websites, emails, live chats, documentation and other content on your customer’s journey. We introduced quick ways to order translations right away, and so much more. We’re thrilled to be helping more than 2 million users and thousands of projects to manage an agile localization process. Let’s take a moment to celebrate how your features and app requests help us grow, our milestones, and how Crowdin became more than a cloud-based solution for software localization

The beginning of a new year is an excellent time for fresh new ideas (is there a better time?). As the new year begins, everyone feels that we need to make changes in our life, start on new plans, do new things, and this is also true for Crowdin. In January, we introduced new apps, improved API, and rolled out two new offerings to extend your localization experience. These new offers include Crowdin Language Services, so you can order translations right from your project instantly, and a Virtual Localization Manager, so you can hire a remote professional, who will ensure that all processes at your localization projects are under control. Read on to discover more details.

As we approach the end of the year, everyone at Crowdin is focused on what’s next for 2022. Ambitious goals, a roster of new product updates and improvements. This is the perfect time for us to look back and reflect on our achievements, everything we released – from custom notifications and security features to Crowdin Store with over 100 apps, plugins for localization at the design stage, and more.

Crowdin is now officially an ISO 27001-certified company. As a team, we want to build not only a platform that will help your product reach new markets, but also be sure that your data is safe, so security plays a major role in what we do. It's an integral part of how we work, handle customer data, and develop our product. We pay attention to hardware, organization, software, and network security to ensure your localization path at Crowdin, from registration to downloading your translations, is safe. Read on to learn more about security at Crowdin.

We're excited to announce Crowdin has reached 2 million users. Along with this, we've achieved a great deal in the past few years. We have built many great integrations, worked with wonderful people, and helped many amazing companies. Today people from over 170 countries use Crowdin to translate, proofread, manage localization projects, make their products multilingual, and go global. Early-stage startups and scale-ups like Discord, GitHub, Wrike, and AssessFirst entrust their localization to our platform.

2020 has been a year of turbulent changes. Sometimes it felt like the events were unfolding with a speed you can hardly follow. Still, we’ve learned a lot and re-evaluated how we approach many things, from global problems to the routine daily workflows. What remained unchanged is the role of technology in everything we do. It has helped us collaborate on our projects wherever we are, stay flexible with our planning, and move towards our goals, no matter what. We’d like to take a moment and look back at what our team has been onto this year. For us, it was the highest time to give you even more automation possibilities and more functionality for cross-department collaboration so that you could keep launching multilingual products in the new demanding environment with less effort.

Our team proudly unveils Crowdin Store, a single destination to find tools that add functionality and improve localization workflows. Crowdin app marketplace features third-party tools that will help you achieve more automation, increase productivity, collaborate better, and connect to services used across your company. Including Google Drive, HubSpot, Prismic, Typeform, DropBox, and Contentful – with more coming soon! The most exciting part: You can build useful apps for private use or publish them on Crowdin Store to get them in front of a broad audience. Use a hundred different APIs and webhooks, any programming language, and rely on our assistance on any step.

We’re thrilled to share exciting news – there are 100,000 localization projects on Crowdin! Both private and public, small and bigger scale. That span across tech spheres, and are created by teams located worldwide. It’s not only about the numbers though. This milestone hints at something much bigger – most of these projects are continuous. And it’s mind-blowing to understand how many teams and companies have set up ongoing localization cycles with Crowdin.

Today, we’re announcing the public beta of our new product – Crowdin Enterprise. A localization solution for your whole company, including non-technical teams. We are excited to help you gain more control over the translation process of your company’s products and related content. Streamline your complex localization workflows with Crowdin Enterprise.

In these uncertain times, we are inspired to see the open-source community come together to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic. Open-source teams work outside the usual arena and collaborate with scientists, journalists, and medical professionals on projects that cover a wide variety of new areas. From informational dashboards to DIY ventilator designs. And we can’t stay aside. Crowdin launches its initiative for open-source projects that respond to COVID-19 worldwide spread and offers help with localization. If you’re part of such a project or want to help as a contributor, join us.

As a member of the GitHub Student Developer Pack, we are always happy to see student projects becoming multilingual with Crowdin. That’s why we’re running a contest together with GitHub Education starting December 2 until December 27, 2019. The most active student using Crowdin for project localization receives a 100$ gift card (for App Store & iTunes or Google Play) + our cool swag. Some of the best student projects get a chance to be featured in the GitHub Student Gallery

Crowdin is a customer-driven company. Since day one our clients’ ideas and requests have been the foundation we build our product on. We decided to make this collaboration a bit more official. We’re opening registration to the Customer Advisory Board for our new product – Crowdin Enterprise, and you’re invited! Crowdin Enterprise is currently in a Private Beta, and we need your help to make it public and available to all our users.

Crowdin joins the GitHub Student Developer Pack program to help students build software that speaks different languages. If you are a student enrolled in the Pack program, you will get a free annual subscription to Crowdin Bronze plan. Your project is open-source?

At Crowdin we take customer support very seriously and never compromise its quality. Because offering round-the-clock support is a big undertaking, we decided to test it before going public. We’ve been silently offering 24/7 support for a couple of months to make sure everything runs smoothly. And now we’re proud to announce – every Crowdin customer can now count on quick and competent answers from our Customer Success team whenever they need us. We’re available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Happy to announce that we are launching an updated website as Crowdin started to refresh its overall look. New Editor was the first update we introduced and judging from the reviews made the work for translators more productive and pleasurable. And here we are again with some more exciting news – updated Crowdin website is now live and sparkling. We’d like to tell you about this new chapter of our growth and share what has changed and why.

We’re updating our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy to make them more elaborate, comprehensive and to reflect the growth of our service. These updates will come into effect on March 5, 2018, so we encourage you to review them carefully.

In 2015, we were pretty excited to reach 500 000 of registered users. Well, we just reached another milestone. But we can’t really say we are happy about it. Because we are more than happy — we are thrilled! Thrilled to tell you that just in 2 years the number of registered users doubled!

Today we are announcing a price increase for Crowdin. Here’s the new pricing structure:
