General Translation gives software companies infrastructure to ship the same product in many languages and keep every surface current. It localizes apps, websites, documentation, slide decks, and product videos, then updates those translations as the source files change. On November 10, 2026, founder Archie McKenzie announced $27 million raised across a Series A led by Martin Casado and Jennifer Li at Andreessen Horowitz and a seed led by Aditi Maliwal at Upfront Ventures. Customers include Ramp, Cursor, and Sierra, and a16z also named Cognition and ClickHouse. The company says its largest accounts translate products used by millions of people into over 60 languages. The round comes as product teams ship faster and can no longer leave localization as a separate, multi-quarter project. Teams used to pull translatable text out of design and application logic, then coordinate agencies and review tools while copies drifted across the product, docs, and marketing. General Translation packages open-source internationalization libraries with translations, automation, and versioning, and connects them to React apps, GitHub, Figma, and Slack. The same system is available over API, CLI, and MCP, so a coding agent can run localization inside a normal release. Seats and languages are unlimited, and pricing is usage-based. McKenzie studied computer science at Princeton and came from a classical languages background. Brian Kernighan, co-author of The C Programming Language and McKenzie's former professor, is an early investor and sits on the board with Casado and Maliwal.
