Software development has always been a team sport, but the pull request, the artifact carrying the most information, speaks only one language: code. Every day, PMs, QA engineers, designers, and managers are left on the outside looking in, unable to extract what they need without chasing a developer for an explanation. This is not a people problem. It is a translation problem. A QA engineer must reverse-engineer what changed to simulate what could break. A PM must hunt through diffs to verify whether the feature they specified was actually built. An engineering manager must infer risk from syntax they were never trained to read. This gap costs organizations in slow review cycles, missed requirements, inadequate test coverage, and support teams blindsided by changes they never knew were coming. LLMs have changed this entirely. They don't just summarize code. They reason about it, and can explain the same change in fundamentally different ways depending on who is asking. Code Translated sits at the intersection of your GitHub repository and your team's workflow. When a PR is opened, it automatically generates role-specific translations: the PM sees requirement coverage, QA gets edge cases and regression risks, the designer is flagged on UI-impacting changes, the manager gets a risk summary, and support gets a plain-English user impact statement. Every role gets the same PR, explained in their own language. IBM Bob was instrumental in bringing this to life. We used Bob throughout the hackathon to scaffold the application, reason through architectural decisions, debug logic, and accelerate development, compressing what would have taken weeks into a 48-hour build. The prototype validates the core idea end-to-end. The production vision is a native Forge app integrated directly into Jira and GitHub, no new tools, no added steps, just the right insight for every stakeholder at the moment it matters.
