About

From Global Translation to AI-Built Software

We didn't start as a software agency. We started as translators, and we ran a global translation business for more than 20 years before we productized the tools we built to run it.

That order matters. It explains everything about how we work.

The short version

20+

years operating BeTranslated across 100+ languages, with offices in Spain and Belgium.

We built our own software

Project pipelines, vendor portals, multilingual invoicing — because nothing on the market handled multilingual operations well.

AI made it a service

AI-assisted development made that internal capability fast enough to offer to clients. Globaprom is that service.

How we build with AI

Multilingual by default

Every project ships multilingual-ready, because we never learned to build software any other way.

Twenty years of translation first

Globaprom grew out of BeTranslated, a translation company founded in 2002. For over two decades, that business has delivered professional translation for law firms, medical-device manufacturers, freight forwarders, and industrial exporters, legal contracts, medical documentation, technical manuals, and logistics paperwork.

Running a translation business at that scale is an operations problem: projects in dozens of language pairs, files moving between clients and hundreds of freelance linguists, fixed deadlines, non-negotiable confidentiality. Off-the-shelf tools never fit. So we built our own.

We built these tools for ourselves first

Before Globaprom sold a single project, we were our own client. Internal systems we built and still run include:

  • A translation project pipeline moving files between clients, PMs, and freelance linguists across dozens of language pairs, with confidentiality enforced at every step.
  • A vendor and linguist portal for managing our network of professional translators, their assignments, and deliveries.
  • A multilingual invoicing and quoting system built to handle multiple currencies and locales for clients around the world.

When we tell a freight forwarder that multilingual customs document automation works, it's because our own business ran on systems like it for years. AI-assisted development changed one variable: speed.

Why "Globaprom"

The name comes from where we come from: Global Promotion and Translation, the same root as our translation heritage. BeTranslated and Globaprom are linked companies, and both sites say so, because the translation track record is the proof behind the software promise.

AI writes fast code. It does not take responsibility. We do.

A human engineer directs the AI tooling, reviews every line, runs automated dependency audits, and tests against the agreed scope before anything ships. Client code lives in the client's repository, and the client owns it outright.

See how we scope, build, and review every project.
