Auto translations

Auto translations are currently in Beta. Let us know if you have any feedback or encounter any issues.

Auto translations make it easy to keep your documentation up-to-date in multiple languages, with minimal manual effort. You can create a space as a translation of another, and let AI handle the rest.

How auto translations work

• Create a translation space: Set up a new space as a translation of an existing one. Choose your source space and target language.

• Automatic sync: When you update the source content, only the changed pages are re-translated. The translation workflow runs automatically, so your translated space always reflects the latest updates.

• Continuous updates: Every time you make changes to the source space, the translation workflow re-runs for just the updated content.

Set up an auto translation

To translate a space to a new language, start by creating a new space in your organization. From the modal that appears, click “Translation” from the quick actions menu.

From the modal that appears, you’ll need to choose a:

• Source

• Source language

• Target langauge

These options will be used to translate your space into a duplicated, but translated space in your organization. You’ll also see a quick overview on the cost of translating your space.

From here, you’ll be able to add it as a variant to an existing docs site to add the translated version to your docs.

Advanced configuration

• Custom AI instructions: Add advanced instructions to guide the AI on tone of voice, style, or other preferences. This helps ensure your translations match your brand or audience.

• Glossary support: Define a glossary to control how specific terms are translated. This keeps terminology consistent across all supported languages.

Pricing

Auto-translations are free during the alpha period. During the public beta and after, pricing will be:

• $25 for up to 50,000 words

• $0.20 per additional 1,000 words

FAQ

Why use auto-translations?

• Effortless multilingual docs: Reach a global audience without manual translation work.

• Smart updates: Only changed pages are re-translated, saving time and resources.

• Full control: Customize translations with advanced instructions and glossary management.

Can I edit the translation?

You currently can't edit translations.

As translations are done as a pure transformation of the source content, we can't reconcile potential edits made on the translation result with a new translation.

To workaround it, we recommend the following flow:

• Use the glossary to define specific translations that you want the AI to use

• Use the custom instructions to iterate on the output
