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
