Akkadu vs. Localize

Akkadu is very well suited for global meetings, where participants speak different languages. Or with participants who speak the same language but with a strong accent that it is difficult to understand.

Localized fits perfectly for clients who would love to have their website localized. It offers great plugins and integrations with popular content management systems and serves as a translation management system for your website. Setup is rather easy, however, more complex setups would require a more technical approach which is not always possible.

• It'd be great if it has AI Speech so we don't need to read the live captions. Customer service said the AI Speech feature will be released next month.

• Providing other features, beyond language. Such as replacing images or other content to allow a fully tailored website for each country.

Akkadu.ai is more accurate. The fact in the Akkadu app you can pick accents such as English (India) or English (Australia) improves the accuracy of the AI. Also the fact you can add terminologies from your industry in advance, makes the AI more accurate as well. Akkadu is very easy-to-use Customer service speaks fluent English and Spanish

Frankly, we don't know what other translation management systems are out there, so we can't comment on how they compare to Localize.
