AI doesn’t fail because it’s wrong, it fails because it’s noisy

Developers don t hate automation.
They hate noise.

Most AI tools fail not because they miss bugs, but because they overwhelm teams with comments no one trusts.

That insight changed how we built PRFlow.

Product update: Polyglotta is evolving (a lot)

Polyglotta started as a multilingual translator, but it s becoming something broader: a language-first AI companion for people who think across languages. Instead of translating A B , Polyglotta is built around seeing meaning across many languages at once so you can notice what shifts, what stays, and what gets lost in between.


Here s what s new (and why it matters): You can now translate across a bigger set of languages, with an experience designed for multilingual context rather than one-pair-at-a-time translation. Polyglotta supports 70+ languages, multilingual context, and custom-optimized AI models aimed at more accurate, context-aware results.
There s also a clearer split between two ways of using the app: Translate mode for fast multi-target translations, and Ask mode when you want help understanding what s going on (explanations, examples, nuance).
Audio is a first-class feature now, too. Membership includes high-quality audio pronunciations, so you can read, hear, and internalize phrases not just copy/paste them.
Probably the most Polyglotta change: translations aren t treated as final answers. Each translation can become a place to refine meaning with real people threads for feedback, context, and improvements so the app gets smarter through collective input. If something feels off, the workflow is simple: downvote, comment, and help steer it toward something more natural.
And if you want to go deeper with others, the community space is set up like a collaborative workshop: share feedback, spot weird translations, test ideas, and learn from each other s language insights.
If you haven t tried Polyglotta in a while, the easiest way to feel the change is: pick a phrase you care about, translate it into a handful of languages, then switch to Ask mode and interrogate the why behind the differences.
