Built by people who believe localisation connects the world

One of us had the privilege of seeing localisation at its best.

Working as a Localisation Engineer at Canva — a product used by millions around the world — Minh saw firsthand that localisation wasn't simply about translating software. It was one of the highest-leverage investments a company could make. Every new language unlocked new customers, stronger engagement, and deeper trust. More importantly, it allowed people to use technology in a language and culture that felt like home.

It reminded us that localisation is ultimately about connecting people.

Hans brought the same urgency from another domain: as a Payment lead at Samsung, where shipping across markets meant coordinating product, risk, and trust at scale.

But we also saw the reality behind every successful global launch. Localisation teams worked tirelessly to keep pace with product development. Product context lived in dozens of places. Questions were repeated across projects. Reviews stretched across time zones. As products shipped faster, the operational burden only grew.

The problem was never the talent of localisation teams. It was that they were expected to scale knowledge faster than any human team could.

That's why we started Hyperlocalise.

Our mission is to help every company reach the world without localisation becoming the bottleneck. We believe the future isn't replacing localisation professionals with AI. It's giving them an AI workforce that learns alongside them, understands product context, captures organisational knowledge, and removes the repetitive work that slows global releases.

When knowledge is shared instead of searched for, localisation teams can focus on what humans do best: making products feel genuinely local, culturally relevant, and trustworthy.

The impact goes far beyond operational efficiency. Companies can enter new markets sooner, launch every release globally with confidence, and unlock the return that comes from serving customers in their own language and cultural context. The faster products evolve, the more important this becomes.

We're building Hyperlocalise with immense respect for the people behind localisation. They are often invisible to end users, yet their work helps millions of people access products, ideas, and opportunities across cultures every day.

If we can help those teams scale without losing quality or humanity, then we've done something worthwhile.

Because every language is another opportunity to connect people.
