I know far too many startups that have spent countless hours translating strings so their products could work in multiple languages.
Imagine translating a video pixel by pixel with an API -- it's now possible with what @archiemckenzie_ and the @generaltxn team are building!
General Translation has raised $27m led by @martin_casado at @a16z to localize the world’s best companies.
Today, @generaltxn serves Ramp, Cursor, and Sierra by translating apps, sites, docs, slide decks, and even product videos into dozens of languages.
a16z invested alongside @upfrontvc, Peter Thiel, Fei-Fei Li, and more. 🧵

Archie and team are creating a very special company. Translation and internationalization / localization are devilishly tricky problems. Even with AI. GT is tackling this head on, and with great success. Many of the companies I work with use them. And many more should :)

We’re thrilled to lead General Translation’s Series A.
The best companies today deliberately build their product and services for a global audience. As a result, their products need to be in every language and localized to meet their customers where they’re at.
@generaltxn’s unique approach is full-stack localization. Rather than having designers and engineers rip out translatable text from design and logic, teams can now use General Translation’s developer primitives to integrate directly into their React apps, documentation, and more.
Cursor, Cognition, Ramp, and Clickhouse already use General Translation to scale their products to every language.
@archiemckenzie_ understands both the messiness of language and how to build software that scales, and the result is a product with a laser focus on craft.

if im not mistaken, @kevskgs literally built an internal rail/dolly system for moving virtual cameras and getting these crazy shots and videos
The greatest thing you can do for your game is build an in-game photo mode.
All of these pictures were taken live in the game's scene studio.

Very grateful to have had the opportunity to meet the founder and CEO of NVIDIA @JensenHuang in my dream last night. We had a wonderful conversation about building a strong engineering culture.
