How to track translation progress with your AI

Connect Crowdin to your AI client once. After that, you can check on your localization status without ever logging into the Crowdin dashboard.

Short answer

How can I track my translation progress with AI?

Your AI uses Crowdin tools to pull live data on project completion and specific file statuses. You get a direct readout of what's finished and what's still pending. This gives you a clear view of your localization workload through a simple chat interface.

Where every update lands.

Real-time status updates

Your AI turns raw Crowdin data into clear answers about your localization status.

PROJECTS

Project overview

The AI pulls a list of your active projects. You'll see exactly which ones are running and which are idle.

FILES

File-level status

Get a breakdown of specific files within a project. You'll know which files are fully translated and which are still being worked on.

DETAILS

Granular file data

The AI digs into individual file specifics. This helps you spot exactly where the translation gaps are.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

The AI identifies stalled files or low-progress areas. You then decide when to jump into the dashboard to fix things or talk to translators.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and your Crowdin account.

  1. Identify active projects

    The AI scans your account to find all current localization efforts.

    list_projects

  2. Locate specific files

    Once you pick a project, the AI finds every file inside it to check its status.

    list_project_files

  3. Inspect file progress

    The AI looks at the specific translation counts and completion percentages for a file.

    get_file_details

  4. Report status

    The AI summarizes the findings into a plain text update for you.
