About Rigi
Rigi is a cloud-based software localization platform that gives linguists real-time, editable HTML previews of an application's UI so they can translate strings in context without relying on developers or static screenshots. Using an ID-based approach, Rigi recognizes every string in your app and renders dynamic previews of each screen across web, desktop, mobile, and embedded devices, reducing translator queries and post-release fixes. Now part of XTM International, it can run as a standalone localization management platform or integrate with XTM Cloud and other CAT tools.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Real-time, editable HTML previews let translators see strings in the live UI instead of static screenshots
- ID-based approach requires no code changes to the application
- Removes developers from the localization loop, with reportedly up to 95% less developer involvement
- Centralized in-context review and QA with DQF and MQM framework support
- Can operate as a standalone localization management platform or integrate with XTM Cloud and other CAT tools
Key Features
Dynamic HTML previews
Show linguists exactly how strings appear in real interfaces across web, desktop, mobile apps, and embedded devices in real time.
Translation in context
Translators see how text fits the UI as they work, across screens, languages, and devices, cutting ambiguity and rework.
In-context review tools
Simplify LQA with review packs, issue tagging, commenting, and progress tracking, with support for DQF and MQM frameworks.
Automated project setup
Capture screen previews and link strings to visuals directly from your staging server, with no manual intervention.
ID-based file management
Riginized token files recognize every string by its identifier and build a cross-index, enabling localization without code changes.
Internationalization testing
Automatically detect hardcoded strings and i18n issues before translation begins.
CAT tool and TMS integration
Connect Rigi to existing CAT tools or a TMS, including XTM Cloud, for seamless end-to-end translation workflows.

Best For
Software UI localization
Translate state-driven and interactive application interfaces with accurate dynamic previews of every screen.
In-context linguistic QA
Reviewers run LQA with in-context previews, commenting, and issue tagging in a single workflow to catch bugs before release.
Continuous localization for fast-moving teams
Run localization in parallel with development so new features ship in all languages without dev bottlenecks.
Internationalization readiness checks
Detect hardcoded strings and i18n problems before translation starts to avoid costly post-release fixes.
