Crowdin

Free tier + paid

Localisation management platform for translating product strings, with Crowdin AI for translation, context enrichment and proofreading, plus an API and integrations.

Verdict: For managing game text translation with AI assistance; the free plan works for one private project, but free-plan translations feed Crowdin's translation memory.
