About Freeletics

Founded in Munich in 2013, Freeletics is now Europe’s #1 fitness app. Freeletics pairs each user with their own unique AI-powered coach, who creates customized training sessions for athletes of every level. Additional features allow users to set goals, track their progress, and even join communities. And the best part: it’s all designed for people to work out in the comfort of their home or backyard, without any specialized (and expensive) equipment.

TL;DR

The small internal team works with a closely integrated supply chain to manage translation jobs.

Freelancers are prioritized over LSP partners, but both have a role in the current supply chain.

Full localization is the next step: the team wants to go beyond translation, creating  tailored products and campaigns for its main markets.
