Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Transifex

Ask your AI how far each language has come in a Transifex project, which strings are still untranslated, or to fix a translation. It can read organizations, projects, resources, source strings and translations, create and update tasks, post comments on strings and build a translated file for download. Localization status is one question away.

Try asking

“How far along is the German translation of our web app project?”
The AI reads the translation progress for the project in German and reports translated, reviewed and untranslated counts per resource.
“Find the string with key checkout.button and show its French translation.”
It lists the source strings in the resource by key, then reads the French translation of that string with its review status.
“Change the Danish translation of 'Save changes' to 'Gem ændringer' and mark it reviewed.”
It finds the translation and updates the text and review state for that one string.

What your AI can do

See translation progress and activity, create and update tasks, comment on strings and download translated files.

“Create a task to translate the new onboarding strings into Spanish and Italian by Friday.”
It creates a translation task in the project with the languages, due date and priority you give it.
“Add a comment on the pricing string asking translators to keep it under 20 characters.”
It posts a comment on the source string, visible to the translators on the project.
“Give me the reviewed Swedish file for the mobile app resource.”

Questions

What can the AI do in Transifex?

It can list organizations, projects, project languages, supported languages, resources, source strings, translations, tasks, teams and string comments, and read translation progress and project activity. It can create and update projects, resources, source strings and tasks, update translations, comment on strings and download translated files.

Does the AI see my Transifex API token?

No. Your Transifex API token is encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save it, it is not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with progress and lookups only. Changing a translation or a source string affects what your translators and your product see, and comments are visible to translators, so these can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your HeyMyApps link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

HeyMyApps has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own Transifex account.

How does the AI find the right project or string?

Transifex uses IDs such as o:acme for an organization and o:acme:p:webapp for a project. The AI first lists your organizations, then projects and resources, and uses those IDs in the next step. You can just name the project or string in plain words.
