Specs come from the product record, feature copy is rewritten rather than translated, and search metadata is researched per market.[Vitra.ai Universe](https://www.vitra.ai/platform) keeps one product vocabulary across box, app, page and video. ## Four content types, one page Treating a product page as one translation job is why translated pages underperform. The page is a stack of different things. Layer How it localizes Specification table Data from the product record, formatted per market Feature story Transcreated — rewritten to the same brief Comparison table Depends on which models sell in that market Reviews and Q&A User content, translated for reading not for indexing Search metadata Researched in-market, not translated Imagery with text Image-level translation ## The feature story is not a translation job The copy that explains why the noise cancelling matters is persuasive writing, and persuasive writing translated literally reads like an instruction manual. It should be rewritten to the same brief by someone writing in that language, with the claims and the product facts fixed and the framing free. That is more expensive per word than translation and it is the part of the page that converts, so it is where the budget belongs. Everything else on the page can be automated much further than the feature story can. ## Search metadata is researched, not translated The phrase a customer types when shopping for a device in their own market is frequently not the translation of the English phrase, and sometimes it is an English term used locally. Translating the English title tag produces a page optimised for a query nobody issues. The category term, the product-type noun and the modifier that buyers actually use all have to be checked in-market, and then the page structure built around them — which is structural work rather than linguistic. There is more on that in [multilingual product pages](https://www.vitra.ai/retail/multilingual-product-pages). ## Comparison tables are market-specific The competitor a page compares against is whichever model is actually on shelf in that market, and the model line-up differs. A comparison table translated verbatim can name a product the local customer cannot buy, which reads as carelessness and undermines the rest of the page. Treat the table as a market decision with a translated shell. ## What runs automatically Specs, availability, compatibility lists, box contents, dimensions and the supporting copy around them are all high volume and low judgement, and they change often enough that manual handling does not scale. [Website translation](https://www.vitra.ai/features/website-translation) covers the page itself and [image translation](https://www.vitra.ai/features/image-translation) the text baked into product imagery, with [translation memory](https://www.vitra.ai/features/translation-memory) keeping feature names identical to the [spec sheet](https://www.vitra.ai/consumer-electronics/electronics-spec-translation) and the [manual](https://www.vitra.ai/consumer-electronics/electronics-manual-translation). Then the feature story and the comparison table get human attention, because those are the two layers where a literal rendering costs sales. Storefronts, feeds and marketplaces are covered in [e-commerce localization](https://www.vitra.ai/solutions/e-commerce-localization). ## FAQ **Should a product page be translated as one job?** No. It contains specification data, persuasive feature copy, comparison content and search metadata, and each of those localizes differently — one of them is not translation at all. **Why rewrite feature copy instead of translating it?** Because persuasive writing rendered literally reads like documentation. Rewriting to the same brief in the target language keeps the claims and facts fixed while letting the framing work locally. **How should product page search metadata be handled?** Researched in-market rather than translated. Buyers often use a different term, sometimes an English one, so a translated title tag can optimise the page for a query nobody actually issues. **What about comparison tables?** They are market decisions. The competing models on shelf differ by market, so a verbatim translation can compare against a product the local customer cannot buy.
