flitto, Inc. was founded on September I s t , 2012 with the sole purpose of creating a platform to allow everyone to read any content in their native language. Despite globalization, people still find it difficult to access the myriad of contents available to them online, largely due to language barriers. The differences in spoken and written languages are a major stumbling block preventing people from reaching a t r ~ ~global ly engagement at personal and business levels. As a crowdsourced translation platform, flitto provides the solution to this problem. within 10 months since its inception, flitto has acquired over 1.8 million registered users from 170 different countries without spending any budget on marketing.
One of flitto's unique features is that it directs the right contents to the right users. It personalizes the contents that interests users and pushes it to their mobile phones, thus motivating them to read and translate these contents. Furthermore, the flitto app makes it convenient for users to read and translate content whenever and wherever. While most human powered translation services provide a marketplace that connects translators to individuals or companies that need translations, flitto goes beyond being a simple marketplace by adding the social factor to its platform. It creates a community where people can meet and interact with people around the world who share similar interests.
