We ♥ apps.
That's why we localize ’em.

Unlike factory localization services, Babble-on is for developers who really care about their international users. We are true experts in translation who happen to love software. We'll help you deal with localization issues, ask the right questions to understand strings out of context, and are available to help out in QA testing. We're as dedicated to your software as you are.

There's room to grow.

Internationalizing your software puts it in the big league, and adds a staggering new pool of potential customers.

Users everywhere love it.

Software localization increases customer loyalty by leaps and bounds. Go from app developer to international software mogul.

Speed toward global success.

We're not a factory.
We're your San Francisco localization team.

We make software localization easy by working directly with your own engineers. No matter how many languages you need, you'll benefit from a single point of contact to manage the software localization project from start to finish, to answer your questions, and make sure everything is done on time. Your software will soon be in daily use localized for every region of the world you want to reach. We'll also continue to work with you to localize successive software updates as you release them.

Native code. Native translators.

We use specialized tools to support a large number of popular software localization formats. Rather than exporting your localization strings into an Excel document, send us the native code.
