Review language performances - Transifex AI has been used to get all languages up to higher completion rates.

  • AI will now automatically translate new languages and strings. Languages that get a TQI (quality) score of 85% or higher will be auto-reviewed by the AI. Languages that score lower will need to be looked at by that language’s review team.
