Case Study: Beekeeper achieves higher translation quality and automated localization with Transifex

Beekeeper Increases Translation Quality, and Automates Localization

Beekeeper is a Swiss software platform for frontline workers used by global customers like Hilton, Domino’s Pizza and Heathrow Airport. As the company grew, so did the need to localize product and support content across web, iOS/Android apps and Help Center articles, enable multiple people to translate in parallel, preserve product-specific terminology, and remove the bottleneck of storing translations in a developer-only codebase.

Beekeeper implemented Transifex as its TMS, integrating the CLI into CI/CD and using features like collaborative chat & review, a glossary, flexible translator assignments, and automated workflows. The result was faster, higher-quality translations with delegated ownership, elimination of manual cross-team localization, seamless rollout of localized content, quicker international customer onboarding, and sustained satisfaction with Transifex over six years.
