Grimoire Localization Platform Opens Closed Alpha Recruitment
Grimoire aims to solve the industry problem of inconsistent translation policy across an entire work by letting humans set the policy and AI apply it consistently, a gap current sentence-level AI translation does not fill.

ErudAite Inc. began recruiting users for a free closed alpha of Grimoire, a director-type localization platform for games, anime subtitles, and manga. About 10 companies will receive the alpha and provide UI/UX feedback. The product will be presented at Tokyo Game Show 2026 on September 18.
Grimoire is built on ErudAite's proprietary context analysis engine and translation algorithm, ErudAite v7.5, which reads the tone of the whole work, each character's speaking style, relationships, and scene situations. The platform then applies a single translation policy across dialogue, narration, UI, and item names, in 59 languages.
Users act as translation directors and can set policy in three ways, including defining how to handle distinctions like the Japanese first-person pronouns that carry personality and social position. The closed alpha is free for about 10 companies, with feedback requested on UI and UX.
