Brandfuel, the ecommerce content platform for Shopify merchants, today announced the release of its Advanced Localization Module, a new tool that enables brands to expand into new markets with fully original, locally resonant content rather than simple translations. It handles every aspect of localizing a Shopify site, including localizing all product content, blog posts and pages automatically in virtually any language. The launch comes ahead of The Lead ecommerce conference in New York on May 20-21.

Brandfuel will showcase capability at The Lead ecommerce conference in New York May 20-21.
"Localization done right isn't about replacing words. It's about connecting authentically with a new audience," said Kent Deverell, Brandfuel's Head of Accounts and Marketing. "Our Advanced Localization Module gives Shopify merchants the ability to enter any market with content that's genuinely built for that audience, not just adapted from something else."
Most localization tools on the market today take a straightforward approach: translate existing content word-for-word into a target language. Brandfuel's Advanced Localization Module works differently. Rather than simply translating existing copy, Brandfuel draws on any and all existing source data and documents about a brand's products, voice, target personas and positioning to write entirely new, culturally appropriate content from scratch in the native language of the target market. The result is content that reads and performs like it was created by a native speaker, because it was built for that audience from the ground up.
The Advanced Localization Module covers the full breadth of a Shopify storefront, not just product descriptions. Merchants can localize blog posts, landing pages, editorial content, and other non-product pages, ensuring a consistent brand experience across every customer touchpoint. Key capabilities include original content generation in the target language informed by brand and product source data, full Shopify site coverage including product pages, blog posts, and non-product content, entire sites localized in minutes not days, support for any language with no compromise on quality, and seamless integration with existing Shopify storefronts.
