Step 1
Audit Content for Localization Readiness
Use Claude to review your core marketing content and flag: culturally specific references, idioms that won't translate, images with text, and region-specific compliance issues to address before translating.
Step 2
Translate with Context
Use Claude or Gemini (with strong multilingual capability) to translate content with a detailed system prompt specifying target locale, formal/informal register, and any brand terminology to preserve.
Step 3
Cultural Adaptation Review
For each market, ask Claude to review the translation for cultural fit, humor that doesn't land, visual metaphors that don't resonate, and tone adjustments needed for the target culture.
Step 4
Automate the Pipeline
Set up a Make or Zapier workflow: when a new English piece is published to Notion, automatically trigger translations for each target language and route them to a review queue.
Step 5
Build a Terminology Glossary
Create a shared Airtable AI glossary of brand terms, product names, and approved translations for each market. Reference this in every translation prompt to maintain consistency.
Time Required
