How it sells itself

Translate your entire Shopify store with AI and keep every language in sync automatically. Edit your content and LocaleFlow re-translates only what changed. It goes beyond products: collections, pages, blogs, menus, metafields, product options, image alt text, theme, policies, filters and delivery methods. You pick which fields to translate. Preview demo translations before you subscribe.

TradeGear translates your products, pages, blog, policies, menus and theme text into the languages you choose, and Shopify serves each one on your own domain with a language switcher. An optional assistant answers shoppers in their language from the content you publish, and links to the page it used. Translations you already have are kept, never overwritten.

Key points
  • Automatic translation sync when content changes
  • Translate products, collections, pages, blogs, and menus
  • Translate metafields and metaobjects with field-level control
  • Choose exactly which fields to translate in each resource type
  • Translates products, pages, blog, policies, menus and theme text
  • An assistant that answers shoppers in their language, with sources
  • Keeps translations you wrote; protect brand names and key terms
