Context

About Weglot

Weglot is a website translation and localisation platform that intercepts website content at the DNS or JavaScript layer and serves translated versions of each page — enabling APAC businesses to launch multilingual websites without modifying their existing CMS, rebuilding pages in a translation workflow, or requiring developer involvement for each new language launch.

Weglot's core value proposition for APAC SMEs and marketing teams is speed and accessibility: where CMS-native translation tools (WordPress WPML, Webflow multilingual, Contentful locale management) require content workflow changes and developer configuration, Weglot's proxy-based translation architecture enables a multilingual website to be live in hours by adding a DNS record and JavaScript snippet. For APAC businesses that need Japanese, Korean, or Bahasa Indonesian website versions to serve a specific market opportunity without the time or budget for a full multilingual website rebuild, Weglot provides the fastest path to functional multilingual presence.

Weglot's AI translation — using a combination of major MT providers and Weglot's own APAC language-trained models — provides initial translations that are typically 80–90% publication-ready for standard marketing content, reducing the editing effort that makes machine translation impractical without human review. For APAC website content that is primarily informational (product pages, blog posts, landing pages), Weglot's AI translation with human editing in Weglot's visual translation editor produces acceptable quality at significantly lower cost than full human translation.

Weglot's automatic hreflang implementation — which generates and maintains hreflang tags across all translated pages — addresses one of the most technically error-prone aspects of APAC multilingual website management. Incorrect hreflang implementation is one of the most common international SEO errors, causing search engines to serve incorrect language versions to APAC market users. Weglot automates hreflang correctness, removing a technical SEO risk that manual implementation consistently introduces.

Weglot's visual translation editor — which displays translated page content in the visual context of the actual page layout — enables APAC marketing team members without technical skills to review and edit translations in the context they will appear, catching layout and styling issues caused by translated text length differences before they affect published pages.
