Build Change reduced bottlenecks with a weatherproof translation workflow

Build Change is a global NGO that offers resilient housing solutions to homeowners in disaster-prone areas through their assistance platform, BCtap. They operate in 15 countries across Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region.

The Challenge

Making technical information more accesible

The non-profit needed to localize complex technical content to meet the varying financial and logistical needs of homeowners, builders, and local teams in the field. In addition to the language barriers, they were also looking for a solution that could simplify their current translation process, which was tedious and prone to user error.

"Localazy delivers an intuitive user interface and toolset for both technical and non-technical users. It's made our localization much easier and scalable."

The Solution

A simpler setup to mitigate risks

The team built a whole system for easier content distribution on Localazy. Using the iOS and Android integrations, they transitioned to the platform and applied machine translation to their workflows. This helped them to quickly generate translations that were later reviewed and refined by native speakers, minimizing errors on the technical side. Then they used Localazy CLI and CDN to distribute their localized message across their global network, making the updated content instantly accesible to their users worldwide in different languages.

Benefits

Crystal clear messaging, ensured
  • Increased accuracy and faster content turnarounds.

  • Easier collaboration among global teams.

  • Comprehensive and easy-to-follow documentation.

  • Smooth integration with existing tools.
