## Summary

OpenRouter says it built a daily loop that finds changed website strings, translates them with GPT-6.1 Sol, checks them in code, and has a second call verify meaning against the English. Failed checks are retried with the reasons attached, and reader reports become glossary rules, style notes, or test cases. The post says a full retranslation of 16,918 strings into 7 languages costs about $460 with verification included.

## Why it matters

The post shows how a model-driven localization loop is built, measured, and corrected, which transfers to any team translating a changing product site.
