Efficiency
Less manual rebuild risk
Extracts translatable content, translates it through a controlled structure, and rebuilds usable assets without relying on repeated copy and paste work.
Translation AI / Governed Workflow
Governed translation workflows for marketing operations.
A controlled AI orchestration system for translating structured marketing assets while preserving layout, protected terminology, review states, and versioned audit evidence.
Workflow Evidence
The workflow is designed to be visible, reviewable, and reversible.
The Translation AI build is framed around an operating workflow, not a loose prompt. Source assets, orchestration, language routing, QA gates, reviewed output, and archive evidence all need to be visible.

Operational Value
The value is not only translation speed. It is operational control.
Quality
Controlled terminology
Product names, trademarks, merge fields, URLs, approved phrases, and restricted claims are protected before the model receives the payload.
Audit
Traceable decisions
Source asset, generated output, QA result, approval status, prompt version, and rules version can be stored against a version-controlled record.
Translation Controls
The system protects the asset before it asks the model to translate.
Translation AI is designed as an operating workflow, not a prompt window. The control layer separates approved source content, protected fields, translatable segments, machine output, QA results, and human approval so the translation process can be trusted.
Source
Preserve the original
The approved source asset remains the baseline for comparison, rebuild, and rollback.
Rules
Protect what must not change
Names, links, placeholders, claims, tracking fields, and structural markers are isolated before translation.
Review
Hold output before use
Generated output moves through QA and human review before it is treated as usable operational content.
Evidence
Record the decision trail
Prompt version, rules version, QA result, approved output, and rollback reference can be stored together.
Architecture
A controlled spine from source asset to reviewed output.
01
Controlled input
Source assets enter through a controlled upload route first, with future support for terminal, GitHub, and repository-triggered workflows.
02
Orchestration
A server-side orchestration route controls validation, payload construction, rules injection, model routing, QA coordination, and archive writes.
03
Translation and reconstruction
Language-specific translator profiles return structured segments. The builder layer reconstructs the translated asset without breaking layout or protected fields.
04
Storage and retrieval
GitHub stores source, output, QA reports, prompts, and rules. Later retrieval can reuse approved phrases and rejected terms before each run.
Pipeline Flow
Structured translation requests replace loose prompting.
01
Source asset registered
The system receives a structured marketing asset, validates the request, and identifies the asset type, source language, target language, and metadata.
02
Structured payload created
The model receives structured JSON: segments, protected terms, formatting rules, glossary matches, prompt version, rules version, and output requirements.
03
Language-specific translator runs
The language router assigns the job to the right profile. The translator returns translated segments while preserving structure and controlled terms.
04
QA gate and human approval
Automated checks validate protected terms, links, placeholders, structure, language target, and confidence score before human approval.
05
Archive, evidence, and rollback
Source, generated output, approved output, QA report, prompt version, and rules version are stored so every job can be traced and recovered.
Language-Specific Translation Layer
Language-specific governance, not one generic language switch.
Each target language can have its own translator profile, rules, approved phrasing, terminology behaviour, and quality controls. The orchestrator supervises every profile so no translator operates outside the governed workflow.

Governance Controls
Designed to stop unsafe output before it becomes operational work.
Boundaries the AI cannot cross
> Cannot auto-approve translated assets
> Cannot bypass QA or human approval
> Cannot rewrite protected product claims
> Cannot store secrets in frontend code
Evidence the system records
> Source file and source commit
> Prompt version and rules version
> QA result and confidence score
> Approved asset and rollback reference
Technical Build Stack
Simple interface. Serious orchestration spine.
Frontend
HTML
Tailwind CSS
Vanilla JS
The interface remains replaceable. The durable value sits in the orchestration, payload, governance, QA, memory, and archive model.
Orchestration
Cloudflare Workers
Cloudflare KV
GitHub
Server-side orchestration keeps secrets out of the browser and gives the workflow a clean control point.
Model Layer
OpenAI
Anthropic
DeepSeek
The model is a replaceable service. The durable value is the governed workflow wrapped around it.
Roadmap
A phased roadmap built around the same governed spine.
V1
Controlled manual upload workflow
Upload source asset, build structured payload, translate through the orchestrator, rebuild output, run QA, download result, and archive evidence.
V2
Approved phrase memory and retrieval
Store approved phrase pairs, protected terms, rejected phrases, glossary rules, and language preferences for reuse before each translation run.
V3
Terminal and repository trigger
A Git push from VS Code triggers the orchestrator through GitHub, then commits translated outputs and QA evidence back to the repository.
V4
Controlled working-folder deployment
Approved translated assets can be pushed into a controlled marketing platform work folder for human review before final placement.
V5
End-to-end localisation operating model
End-to-end translation, approval, deployment, rollback, reporting, and audit evidence through one governed workflow.
