Nitro is now the first human translation service an AI agent can order and pay for on its own — no account, no API keys, no signup. Your agent sends the text, pays per request, and a professional native speaker translates it — publication-ready in hours. Great for the smaller texts that still need to be right: ads, app updates, email sequences, and more. The ordering is machine-to-machine. The translating stays human. 80+ languages. No plans, no minimums.
Hi Product Hunt! I'm Diana, product manager for Nitro. I've been in this role for eight years, so I've watched Nitro grow up. When we started, Nitro was a simple platform for one thing: getting short texts translated by professional human translators, fast. Over the years we built it into something much more powerful — adding context so translators get it right (screenshots, tone of voice, character limits) and expanding what you can send. Each of our past Product Hunt launches marked one of those leaps:
First launch: the core service, API, and export to Google Sheets
Second launch: file support — Google Docs translation with formatting preserved
Third launch: developer and content formats like JSON, HTML, iOS Strings, XML, and Google Sheets
Despite being a niche product, Nitro got noticed here. A #4 Product of the Day and two #5s for a product this niche still surprises us, and it's thanks to this community. Grateful and a little humbled every time — that's why we're back today to show you what's next. What Alconost has always strived for is the same: pair genuinely good human translation with the most powerful tech we can build around it. This launch is the latest step. Nitro now supports MPP — the machine payments protocol — so an AI agent can order a human translation and pay for it on its own, with no account and no API keys. You hand your agent the task, it sends the text and pays per request, and a professional native speaker delivers the copy. We think it'll be interesting for folks building with agents — Nitro is the first translation service to offer this — and we hope the localization crowd finds it just as interesting. We'd love your thoughts and questions!
Nobody's asked the boring one, which is what stops the agent spending. No account and pay per request means the only ceiling is whatever its MPP provider happens to allow, and an agent stuck in a retry loop on a job that keeps failing is an expensive thing to find out about the next morning. A cap you set on your side, per agent, would do more for adoption here than another language pair, because the person who actually authorised this isn't the agent, it's whoever owns the card behind it.
Looks great. Congrats team!
How does the agent know when a translation needs more context before sending it to the translator?
Aren’t you worried that AI could eventually make your service obsolete? Translation quality is already very good with AI, at least for the most widely spoken languages.
80+ languages with no minimums is the part that stands out to me. I've been priced out of smaller translation jobs before because agencies wanted a monthly contract.
Do you see this being used mostly for app localization, or are email campaigns and marketing copy becoming the bigger use case?
It's impressive to see how Nitro has evolved over multiple launches while staying focused on quality. Wishing the team another successful launch! 🎉
As someone who's dealt with clunky localization vendors, skipping the account and API key setup entirely is honestly refreshing. I'd try this for a small app update just to see the turnaround time.
I wasn't expecting machine-to-machine ordering with human delivery to be the next step in localization. It'll be interesting to see what kinds of AI agents people end up connecting to Nitro first.
great idea, i’m seeing many successful products that make interactions more convenient for ai agents useful. congrats on the launch!
Congrats on the launch! qq When an agent orders with no account, how does the translation get back to it?
Congrats on a new launch, guys! I am wondering something: how do you ensure quality if an agent is placing the order?
If there's no account and the agent placed the order — where do the finished translations actually come back to?
Hi everyone!
I'm Alex — I run Alconost, and Nitro has been my baby for years. I came up with it out of a simple frustration: for short texts — an app update, an ad, a few lines of email — professional translation was far too heavy. You shouldn't need a project manager and a quote to translate three sentences. Nitro was my answer to that.
I've since moved on to other projects, but I still keep an eye on it and bring ideas to the team — and seeing it come back to Product Hunt a fourth time, now with AI agents able to hire human translators directly, feels kind of surreal. Huge thanks to the Product Hunt crowd for all the support over the years.
Publication-ready in hours is a bold claim. I'd love to see actual turnaround data from real orders before I trust it for anything client-facing.
Hey Product Hunt people! 👋
This launch makes me a little nostalgic - I ran the first and second Nitro launches here, and spent a long while in customer support and customer development before that.
What I love is that after all these years Nitro keeps catching up with what's new; it doesn't sit still. This launch is a great example: the moment AI agents became a real thing, we found a way for them to bring human translators in rather than replace them. It's been a joy to watch it evolve. We'll be happy to answer any questions about Nitro!
