Coordinating translation at global scale means knowing what each project needs, the status of work, and when each file is due. GlobalLink Portal is built to answer those questions in one place, and this latest release makes the answers even more precise. Read below to learn how GlobalLink Portal is bringing more organizational transparency and control to global content operations.
GlobalLink Portal is the web-based gateway to the GlobalLink platform, supporting the full project lifecycle from first request through final delivery. Teams track projects with full visibility and collaborate across translation, transcription, and localization workflows.
When timelines shift or a project needs to be paused, you can now mark that state directly. The new “On Hold” submission status shows that delivery timing is paused because of pending inputs, so agreed timelines stay accurate and expectations stay aligned. For even greater transparency, a required hold reason creates a shared record of why work stopped, reducing misalignment.
And with easy filtering and a dashboard-level view into “On Hold” items, visibility extends across your entire pipeline, so the work that needs action stands out immediately.
When media files are added to a submission, GlobalLink Portal automatically recognizes them and connects you straight to GlobalLink TV, our native media streaming platform. With this integration, your video library and localization workflows operate in tandem, with assets kept in a single, secure environment.
If you reach the limit of free machine translation, you’ll be directed to review your options and continue with more capacity through GlobalLink Now. Easily upgrade your AI translation capacity in just a few clicks and keep your projects moving.
Individual files now display their own delivery date, so a submission that arrives across several handoffs still reads cleanly. Anyone working the submission reads the same record of what has been handed off and when, so full visibility is maintained for every file across your organization.

What is translation project management?
Translation project management is the coordination of multilingual work: scoping and quoting, assigning the work, tracking progress, and handing off finished files. GlobalLink Portal runs translation project management from a centralized location, so work stays in one place from the request through the last file.
What is media localization?
Media localization is the adaptation of video and audio content for other languages and markets. GlobalLink Portal supports media localization alongside text translation workflows, and now a submission that contains media files connects directly to GlobalLink TV.
How does translation project tracking work?
Translation project tracking is the ability to see where every active request stands, with complete visibility into all active and complete submissions. In GlobalLink Portal, submissions update in real time, and you can set up email notifications for the status changes, progress, and deadlines you want to follow.
