Got it — I'll wrap the trigger ref and restore focus on the onClose handler. Original (HI) · Hindi → English · context preserved

Patch pushed to feat/drawer-a11y. Tests pass locally. Sophie — could you confirm the keyboard order on Safari?
The status quo

The cost of working in someone else's language —
and someone else's cloud.

Every multilingual team pays a tax: nuance lost in translation, contributions underweighted, and a chilling effect on the people closest to the work. Layer AI on top, and a second tax appears: data has to leave the building before it can help. We rejected both.

01 — The Language Tax

Three rewrites before hitting send.

A senior developer in Casablanca drafts a code review in French, translates it to English, then softens the tone — twice. Her precision dies somewhere between drafts. The team gets a watered-down opinion that doesn't reflect what she actually saw.

— happens every standup, on every continent.
02 — The AI adoption gap

Prompting is a privilege.

The product manager has ideas the AI could 10x — but he doesn't speak in prompts. Meanwhile his intern, fresh out of an LLM bootcamp, ships 4× faster. The gap isn't ability. It's vocabulary.

— delegating to AI should not require a course.
03 — The sovereignty wall

Some data simply can't leave.

A doctor in Bangalore would love AI triage notes. Her hospital won't let her — patient records cannot touch a third-party cloud. So she opts out, and the tool serves only the teams that have nothing sensitive to protect.

— the most valuable use cases are the ones excluded.
What's inside

Three primitives, one platform.

Each feature solves one of the three problems above. Together, they remove every reason your team doesn't yet collaborate without borders.

Zero-latency translation

Gemma 4 translates technical context the moment you send. Your message lands in their language with your nuance intact — verified by the 文 badge.

Agentic backup — never miss a collaboration.

When you're offline, Gemma 4 reads the channel history and answers contextually in your name. Every AI-authored message is transparently badged in purple so no one mistakes the model for you.

Your data never leaves your walls.

Deploy Gemma 4 on-premise via Ollama or LiteRT. Medical, legal, governmental teams can trust the AI because it sits inside their hardware perimeter.

How it works

From install to multilingual team in an afternoon.

Connect your team.

Spin up channels for projects, invite collaborators from any country, and let each person declare their native language. Pairs are private 1:1 spaces for direct technical work.

Collaborate in your language.

Every message — including shared files — auto-translates on demand. The 文 badge keeps the provenance honest. One click toggles between the original and the translation.

Let AI back you up.

Flip on Mode Agent when you leave. Gemma 4 maintains the conversation in your absence, with a purple AGENTIC badge on every message so collaborators always know what's you and what's the model.

Why WithoutBorder · Why Gemma 4

The right solution,
powered by the right model.

The Language Tax costs billions in lost productivity and excluded talent every year. Gemma 4 is the first open model family capable of eliminating it — at the edge, on-premise, for free.

Existing tools

  • Translation means copy-pasting to a separate service
  • AI features send your data to external clouds
  • Prompt engineering excludes non-technical contributors
  • AI authorship is invisible — erodes trust
  • High-reasoning AI requires cloud compute budgets

Cloud-based AI tools

  • Fluent translation but outside the workflow
  • Every message sent to a third-party server
  • Requires crafted prompts for reliable output
  • No signal distinguishing AI vs human authorship
  • Per-token cost grows with team usage

WithoutBorder

  • Zero-latency translation built into every message
  • Gemma 4 runs on your hardware — 0 bytes to the cloud
  • Delegate to AI through natural language — no prompts needed
  • Purple AGENTIC badge on every AI message — always transparent
  • Edge E2B/E4B + local 26B/31B — MIT licensed, free forever

Native function calling

Users delegate complex tasks ("summarize this sprint") through plain language. Gemma 4 identifies the intent, calls the synthesis tool, and returns structured output as a background task. No prompt vocabulary required.

Edge + reasoning — one model family

E2B/E4B via LiteRT delivers sub-100ms translation on consumer hardware. The 26B/31B weights handle complex agentic reasoning locally via Ollama. One model family, automatically routed by task complexity.

Open weights — auditable by compliance

A hospital compliance officer can inspect the exact model weights running on their own rack. No opaque API contract, no external data dependency. Open weights are what make AI adoption viable in regulated sectors.

Sovereignty

Built for organizations that can't compromise.

The data that benefits most from AI is also the data that least tolerates a round-trip to a third-party cloud. We resolved the contradiction by making the model come to you — not the other way around.

POWERED BY GEMMA 4 · LITERT (EDGE) · OLLAMA (26B / 31B) · ZERO CLOUD DEPENDENCY

Confidential research

Unpublished science, patent-bound R&D, sensitive datasets.

From the field

What teams say.

"

I review pull requests in French now. Berlin reads them in German. Nothing about my reasoning gets flattened, and I stopped softening my code reviews to sound less direct in English.

Mode Agent is the first AI feature my team treats as a real coworker. The purple badge is the trick — people trust it because they always know when it's the model talking.

We finally have an AI my compliance officer signs off on. Patient context never leaves our network. The model runs in the same rack as the EHR. That sentence shouldn't be remarkable, but it is.
