SignAgent, a global leader in cloud-based wayfinding and signage asset management, has announced the launch of an AI-powered translation tool designed to simplify the creation of multilingual signage. The tool allows users to add new languages directly within SignAgent and generate suggested translations across selected message fields, eliminating the need to switch between external translation apps or manually copy and paste translations one sign at a time.
According to the company, the feature addresses a common pain point in the signage industry: the time-consuming process of producing content in multiple languages. By integrating AI translation suggestions into the design workflow, SignAgent aims to speed up the creation process while maintaining robust review and approval checks. Each translation is clearly marked as pending review, enabling teams to verify accuracy before finalizing the copy.
“Creating multilingual sign content is time-consuming. We’ve integrated AI translation suggestions into SignAgent to streamline the design process while keeping review and approval checks in place,” said David Jorritsma, President at SignAgent.
The AI-powered translation tool includes several key features designed to support local-language and regulatory requirements. In-app review and approval allows suggested translations to be flagged for review, with the option to approve individually or in bulk. Teams can edit translated text after approval at any time to refine terminology or correct mistakes. A built-in confidence score helps teams quickly identify translations that may need extra scrutiny. Additionally, the suggestions are context-aware and tailored to signage and wayfinding terminology, improving relevance and accuracy.

This development is significant for facility owners, design firms, and fabricators who manage complex sign systems across multiple languages and regulatory environments. By reducing manual translation efforts and embedding quality checks, the tool can help organizations save time, minimize errors, and ensure compliance with local-language requirements. As businesses and public spaces increasingly serve diverse populations, efficient multilingual signage becomes critical for accessibility and user experience. SignAgent's AI-powered translation tool positions the company to better serve its global customer base, which spans over 30 countries.
