Frequently asked questions

How does a JSON parser translator work?

A .json parser translator like Smartcat intelligently analyzes your JSON file. It separates the keys and code structure from the string values that need translation, ensuring that only the text is modified and the file's integrity remains intact.

Is AI translation accurate enough for JSON files?

Yes. Our AI translation is specifically trained for localization tasks. It's combined with your Translation Memory and Glossary for accuracy. Plus, every edit made by your human reviewers continuously trains the AI, making it smarter for your specific content over time.

Can I translate other file types besides JSON?

Absolutely. While we specialize in JSON, Smartcat supports over 80 file formats, including XML, XLIFF, RESX, and YAML. You can manage all your localization projects in one central platform.

How do you ensure translation consistency?

Smartcat automatically builds and maintains a Translation Memory (TM) and Glossary from your content. When you translate new JSON files, the AI reuses approved translations and terminology, ensuring consistency across all your app versions and updates.

How does Smartcat help reduce localization costs?

We help you achieve significant ROI savings—up to 70% compared to traditional agencies. Our AI-powered automation eliminates most manual tasks, and you only pay for what you need, whether it's AI translation or hiring professional reviewers.

How do you protect my code inside JSON files?

Our intelligent parser is the first line of defense. It identifies and protects placeholders, variables, and the overall JSON structure from being altered during translation. Automated QA checks and in-context review provide additional layers of quality control.

Can I translate one JSON file into multiple languages at once?

Yes. You can translate a single JSON file into 280+ languages simultaneously. This parallel workflow dramatically speeds up your time-to-market, allowing for simultaneous global releases.

Is my data secure with Smartcat?

Security is our top priority. We are SOC 2 Type II compliant and employ enterprise-grade security measures, including end-to-end encryption and strict access controls, to protect your source code and proprietary data.

How do I handle updates to my JSON files?

Our continuous localization features are perfect for this. By integrating with your code repository (like GitHub), Smartcat automatically detects new or updated strings, translates them, and pushes the localized files back, keeping you in sync with your development cycle.
