A common problem when internationalising a product is not allowing enough space for the translated text. Polyglot will give you an indication of how much room to allow. Inspired by the excellent article Design for Internationalisation.

One thing I'd like to add: Since it's machine translation API the quality and accuracy of result will vary depending on the language. So, I would take the accuracy of translations with a grain of salt. ;) However, it's still a perfect tool to get the gist and a general feel for how long your UI's strings will be in other languages. Spoiler alert! More often than not, they'll be longer! ;)
