    Translatespace translates your app's content in minutes. Most users don't speak your language - reaching them doubles markets. To 'double a market' is a bold claim. And many questi…

    Okay! I'm still kinda new here, what exactly are you looking for? You could also reach out on twitter and we could talk more specifically

    Hey HN, I built an alternative to Google translate that's fast, accurate, and 1/30th the price. 20+ supported languages, not billed until 100k tokens, and already used thousands of…
