Andreessen Horowitz has led a Series A funding round for General Translation. The company builds developer infrastructure for localization. Its tools help software teams release products in multiple languages.


Investor backing

Andreessen Horowitz led the Series A and will take a board seat. Martin will join the company board as part of the investment. The investor said customers valued the team's speed, technical judgment, and attention to detail.

Customers and leadership

Cursor, Cognition, Ramp, and Clickhouse already use General Translation. These fast-growing companies use the product to scale software to every language. Archie McKenzie has a classical languages background and majored in computer science at Princeton.

Full-stack localization

General Translation offers full-stack localization for development teams. Developers can integrate it directly into React apps and documentation without ripping out text. It also connects with everyday tools such as GitHub, Figma, and Slack.


General Translation handles text across codebases, documentation, marketing, and media. It also works with existing internationalization libraries and translation management systems. The company targets brittle localization workflows and slow release cycles.
