Beyond the hype: how Doist built a practical AI-first localization engine

AI changed how Doist’s localization team worked, not just how fast they shipped.

By combining strong human foundations with a 70 percent AI and 30 percent human model, Doist scaled to eighteen languages and turned localization into a growth driver. This session shows the real workflows and decisions behind that shift.

The session

Most companies think localization is a choice between human quality and AI speed. Doist chose both.

Operating with limited resources, Doist originally punched above its weight by building a hyper-efficient, human-led localization engine. But to scale further across eighteen languages, they had to evolve. Today, they use a 70 percent AI and 30 percent human hybrid model that stretches a small team’s impact and now drives forty-five percent of total revenue.

In this from-the-trenches session, Daniel Garcia shares the practical reality of that transition. Moving beyond theory, he breaks down the actual workflows, mistakes, and breakthroughs the team experienced while scaling Doist’s global footprint.
