AI Support Translation SaaS – $229K SDE – Asking $750K – 3.3x
Listing Type (?): Interesting Find

📸 Snapshot:
Seems like a ‘solid’ business but classified as an ‘interesting find’ as it is only 2 years old.
An AI-powered SaaS platform that enables real-time customer support translations in over 120 languages, built specifically for helpdesk integrations. It serves 73 companies and 1,500 customer service agents, integrating directly with platforms like Zendesk, Intercom, Freshdesk, Gorgias, HubSpot, and Front.
✅ What I Like
Strong revenue growth and healthy 78% SDE margins in under two years of operation
Valuable, sticky service with clear use case for global customer support teams
High 45% trial-to-paid conversion rate (no credit card required) suggests strong product–market fit
Integrations with top-tier helpdesk platforms mean easy onboarding and low friction for scaling
Revenue model mixes subscriptions and usage-based expansion — strong for LTV
Upcoming integrations with Salesforce and Oracle open up the enterprise market
⚠️ Risks / Challenges / Questions
AI is moving fast — can this product stay differentiated as LLMs become embedded in support tools?
Does the AI truly add brand-voice fidelity or is it just better-than-average MT?
Long-term, will support teams rely more on AI agents than human reps who need translation tools?
📈 Ways to Grow
Double down on emerging verticals: Fintech, Gaming, Crypto, etc.
Launch self-serve onboarding for smaller teams to increase velocity
Layer in analytics or QA tools to support agent management and insight
Build outbound sales motion to accelerate enterprise deals
