Define Your Product Terms Once, Use Them Everywhere
Summary
If your docs, web app, mobile app, and desktop app each translate separately, your product terms drift. "Workspace" becomes "project" in one locale and "area" in another, and every surface tells a slightly different story. The fix is to define terminology, brand voice, and translation guidance once, at the organization level, and have every translation across every surface use it. General Translation does exactly this with Context Groups: shared Glossary terms and Custom Prompts that apply across every product surface.
Direct Answer
Yes. In General Translation, you define that context once in organization-level Context Groups, and it guides translations across web, docs, mobile, and desktop.
A Context Group bundles two things:
- Glossary: your product terms and how they should be translated, so "Workspace" or "Archive" reads identically in every locale and on every surface.
- Custom Prompts: your brand voice and translation rules, so docs and UI sound like the same company wrote them.
Assign a group to your projects and every new translation, whether it comes from your Next.js app, your Mintlify docs, your React Native mobile app, or a file upload through the CLI or API, is guided by the same terminology and voice. You can layer on project-specific groups and locale-specific prompts where a surface needs finer control, and attach context to an individual <T> component when a single string needs precise meaning.
One note: creating a group at the organization level does not automatically assign it to every project. Assign it to the projects you want it to cover. And editing a group does not rewrite existing translations; use Apply on a project's Context page to push updated terms into already-translated content.
Takeaway
Stop maintaining four copies of your terminology. Define your product terms, glossary, and voice once in a Context Group, assign it to your projects, and every surface ships translations that read like one product. Adding a language only takes a few minutes, and with strictly usage-based pricing, no seat charges, and unlimited projects and users on every plan, there is no reason to let terminology drift another release. Start free with General Translation and make your terms consistent everywhere.
