How this list is ordered. Specifiction scores each tool on how fully its maker documents it, whether its prices are published, where the research puts it, the platforms it runs on and whether it can be tried for free (how we rank). Makers can also buy a numbered place (how Specifiction is paid for).

Look at glossary management and translation memory, plus whether in-game delivery and context screenshots are listed. Role permissions and language limits add further points of comparison for your workflow. Tolgee, Playglot and Localazy follow among the early entries. Check free-plan availability and paid-from pricing as you weigh the listed capabilities.
