Our Plan for Bringing Kestrion to More Languages

Direct hiring is a global need, and limiting Kestrion to English-speaking markets would mean leaving out exactly the kind of candidates and recruiters who benefit most from a more direct alternative to job boards. Multi-language support is on our roadmap, and we want to be upfront about where that work actually stands.

Translating a product that's built around trust and precise language — job titles, skill names, legal pages — is harder than translating marketing copy. A mistranslated button label is a minor annoyance; a mistranslated Terms of Service section is a real problem. Our plan is to treat legal and safety-critical text as a separate, higher-scrutiny translation pass from the rest of the interface, not something to ship quickly and fix later.

We also know job titles don't map cleanly between languages and labor markets — a title that's standard in one country's job market can be unfamiliar or misleading in another. Rather than a literal translation, we intend to work market-by-market so the industry and job-title lists reflect how roles are actually described locally.

None of this is live yet. We'd rather tell you honestly where we are — English-only today, with a real plan for what comes next — than announce language support before it exists.
