Locadex for Mintlify
Automate translation for your Mintlify docs
Locadex is an AI agent built to handle 100% of internationalisation (i18n) and translation work for you.
It takes five minutes to install, after which your Mintlify docs will be configured and translated into all the languages you choose automatically.
Locadex:
- Sets up i18n routing and redirects in your docs
- Translates Markdown files, code blocks, and snippets in context
- Continuously translates as you push new content

Once the initial setup PR is merged, Locadex monitors your main branch for commits and updates translations as needed.

Supported frameworks

If you have Locadex installed across multiple GitHub accounts or organisations, the dashboard will display a list of all those accounts and organisations. Connecting to an account or organisation will link it to your current GT org.
