Cloudwords has successfully disrupted the translation industry with a powerful end-to-end platform created specifically to turbocharge the global translation process. We’re not a translation vendor. Rather, Cloudwords is the first and only platform to fuse workflow, collaboration, financial and project management to streamline global translation projects.

1. Powering Faster Global Impact and Engagement
Cloudwords helps turbocharge the entire global content lifecycle for your key international markets. The localization of
your content, products, and other customer touchpoints using Cloudwords accelerates time-to-market, slashes costs, and
creates global consistency for your brand.
What is Cloudwords?
Cloudwords is a 100% cloud-based platform that puts you and your team in
control of your global localization process via automated workflows, a localization marketplace, hosted translation memory, and full visibility into progress,
spend, and ROI. No more “management by email and spreadsheets.” Content
flow is seamless—no import/export or cut and paste—as you can easily extend
Cloudwords to your marketing and content management applications.
Chosen by the Best
Over 160 global enterprises – including SAP, Verisign, Groupon, LifeTechnologies,
Marketo, Shazam and Netsuite – use Cloudwords to optimize the speed, cost,
and effectiveness of going to market worldwide. Created by veterans of the
translation industry and technology pioneers from salesforce.com, Cloudwords
is backed by cloud visionaries Marc Benioff, CEO and founder of salesforce.com,
and Storm Ventures, a leading cloud venture capital firm.
“Shazam is the largest music
and television discovery app in
the world. With 300M users in
200 countries, 30 languages on
all 7 major mobile platforms,
when we need to communicate
any update, we require the
agility and speed to support our
business that we have only been
able to find with Cloudwords.”
– David Jones, CMO, Shazam
Why It Matters: The Challenges of Globalization
Globalization is a massive challenge for organizations. Until Cloudwords, there was no solution to address the businessstunting issues associated with pursuing growth in international markets:
Lost revenue opportunities
Without delivering content, messages, product, and customer experiences in local language, sales and marketing don’t work.
And without doing it quickly and nimbly enough, significant amounts of revenue remain uncaptured, and your competition
gains share.
Unwieldy content explosion
Content designed to support sales, marketing, and product is proliferating at exponential rates. Managing the creation and
delivery of this content grows more challenging by the day, but trying to do so on a global scale is nearly impossible, and brand
consistency continuously weakens, without a content globalization platform.
Non - global technology
Marketers increasingly rely on technology to perform better. Yet the marketing software, and content management systems in
place aren’t inherently capable of driving engagement and demand on a global scale.
Wasteful processes
Executives have come to tolerate highly debilitating processes in their organizations that support globalization efforts.
Team members are wasting exorbitant amounts of time using email and spreadsheets as their localization management tools,
cutting and pasting tedious quantities of content, and performing other time-consuming, error-prone manual tasks.
Expense
Localization is one of the most expensive budget line items for enterprises of all sizes, yet few companies even know the
aggregate spend on this vital business process, let alone recognize that they are spending more than they need to.
