Translate with AI
We know that many of our existing Prismic users have multi-language websites and, therefore, many locales. Thatās why we're excited to introduce our new AI-powered translation feature. This tool is designed to simplify the process of creating multilingual content, saving time and resources.
Note, this feature is currently in beta, but hereās how you can get access! š

Now, when creating a new locale for your page, you'll see a "Translate with AI" option. Simply select your target language, click "Translate content," and watch as your page is instantly localized.
This feature not only translates your content but also maintains formatting, links, and even preserves localized links to pages in other locales that have been previously created. This ensures a consistent look across all language versions of your site.
Slice Machine support for Next.js 15 and Svelte 5
Keeping pace with the evolving web development landscape, Slice Machine now fully supports the release candidates for Next.js 15 and Svelte 5. These updates introduce new features to enhance your website's performance and user experience.
