Welocalize is a privately owned company based in the US. Founded in 1997, it employs approximately 3,100 people and reported $450.0M in revenue as of 2024. The company functions as a tier 1 media tech buyer, specializing in multilingual content transformation services, encompassing translation, localization, and adaptation across more than 250 languages.
On April 24, 2026, Welocalize announced its rebranding to Welo Global, a change prompted by the company's evolving business where two-thirds of its revenue now originates from outside traditional localization departments, making the term "localization" in its former corporate logo problematic. This rebrand follows a strategic partnership announced on December 17, 2025, with Phrase. Through this collaboration, Welocalize embedded its OPAL Platform natively within the Phrase Platform to create a unified and streamlined environment for enterprise teams managing multilingual content, integrating agentic AI systems directly into one of the industry's widely used language technology platforms.
