How to Automatically Localize Website Content with AI (No Coding Required)

Expanding your app or website to new global markets is exciting, but localization is a bottleneck. Manually copy-pasting text into translation tools is slow, error-prone, and impossible to scale for dynamic updates.

1. Slow Turnaround: Human translation takes days or weeks.
2. Context Loss: Generic translation tools often miss the nuance of your specific industry or brand voice.
3. Maintenance Nightmare: Keeping multilingual datasets in sync with a changing website is a full-time job.

There is a smarter way. In this guide, we'll show you how to use the AI Website Content Localizer & Scraper on Apify. This tool combines the power of Crawlee (for robust scraping) and Lingo.dev (for context-aware AI translation) to automate the entire process.

The Solution: AI-Powered Scraping & Localization

The AI Website Content Localizer & Scraper is a production-grade Apify Actor that automates:

1. Scraping: It navigates your website (or any URL) to extract text, titles, and metadata.
2. Translating: It uses Lingo.dev's AI engine to instantly localize content into 83+ languages.
3. Structuring: It delivers clean, structured JSON data ready for your CMS, RAG pipeline, or analysis.

Best of all, it operates on a Pay-Per-Event model, meaning you only pay for the specific pages you process—no expensive monthly subscriptions.

Prerequisites

pip install apify-client

The Code

from apify_client import ApifyClient

# 1. Initialize the client
client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")

# 2. Configure the input
run_input = {
    "mode": "WEB",
    "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://crawlee.dev" }],
    "lingoApiKey": "YOUR_LINGO_API_KEY",
    "targetLanguages": ["es", "de", "jp"]
}

print("🚀 Starting localization job...")

# 3. Run the Actor
run = client.actor("eunit/ai-website-content-localizer-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# 4. Fetch results
dataset_items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items()

print(f"\n✅ Job Complete! Data at: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run['defaultDatasetId']}\n")

for item in dataset_items:
    print(f"Original: {item.get('title')}")
    translations = item.get('localized_content', {})
    for lang, text in translations.items():
        print(f"[{lang.upper()}]: {text[:50]}...")
