This review restores concrete reasons to choose General Translation where #663 had reduced them to a closing product description, while preserving its useful technical corrections and examples.

Stacked on #663's current kb/informational-articles head (d782d7d1). This PR contains 15 article-specific commits and should be reviewed against that branch. It does not merge or publish the parent.

Article	Change and reason
GT vs. TMS	Restore Faster / Cheaper to run / Higher quality / Lower risk, current Cursor proof, catalog-first adoption, and scoped JavaScript runtime independence. Retain accurate competitor automation and human-service evidence.
What is a TMS?	Explain the code-connected alternative through context, generation, review, and retained catalogs; leave detailed vendor selection to the comparison hub.
Make a website multilingual	Include GT in the approach table and distinguish source authoring, generated files, and existing-library adoption.
AI translation accuracy	Include GT's production workflow in the comparison; distinguish CLI/service generation from SDK rendering and WMT findings from GT evaluation.
JSON translation	Add the GT option, import reviewed catalogs before generation, scope the worked config to English/German, and retain target-plural validation.
Markdown translation	Restore the repository-release comparison, shared terminology, reuse, and built-in review; preserve the AST demonstration and syntax checks.
SRT translation	Add the recurring-release option; reject malformed/nonpositive timings and invalid inputs, with explicit checker limits and video review.
iOS localization	Preserve Xcode agent capabilities; add import-first generation, target-plural handling, raw review, cross-product context, and current Ramp evidence.
Launch checklist	Restore useful GT guidance at the relevant pass conditions, including branches, variables, review, configured automation triggers, and local/CDN delivery. Keep the release record; remove repeated FAQs.
Next.js SEO	Clear inherited alternate metadata for unpublished pages, select a published x-default, and connect reviewed generation to the publication map.
Locale routing	Replace the duplicated partial language parser with a tested routing decision over a resolved preference; explain the supported all-prefixed configuration.
Language switcher	Complete the globe and Escape/focus behavior; add tested GT links with active-language state.
Pseudo-localization	Explain how pseudo tests complement real translations and release review without assuming every German string expands.
Key naming	Correct the component id prop versus translation-function $id option.
Hardcoded strings	Remove an obsolete Locadex plan gate and specify the configured compiler/build path for automatic JSX injection.

The other 12 affected paths in #663 remain unchanged after review. Existing URLs, strong examples, reviewed comparison distinctions, and scoped customer evidence are retained. Live/main content and all 66 open PRs (including drafts and upstream branches) were checked for overlap; pending TMS/SEO edits still need reconciliation if those branches publish later.

Validation:

• All repository validator tests, content validators, internal links, script typecheck, unchanged OpenAPI regeneration, production content build, and whitespace checks pass. CI-equivalent run used Node 22.
• Published gt@2.26.6, gt-next/gt-react@11.4.14, and generaltranslation@9.5.7 checked. JSON/Markdown/SRT/XCStrings file discovery and inline extraction run locally.
• Next 16.4.2 production fixture passes routing, supplied French metadata, inherited-alternate clearing, publication filtering, eight sitemap URLs, and locale-aware link checks.
• Routing/subtitle positive and negative cases pass. Chromium checks cover switcher keyboard/focus/cookie behavior and representative article rendering.
• Independent critique covered every substantive addition/deletion, with all editorial findings resolved.

No hosted translation generation, native Xcode build, or measured AEO uplift is claimed. Repository Actions target PRs to main, so they may not run on this stacked base. Timestamped decisions, primary sources, reviewed heads, fixtures, limits, and independent critique are saved in memory-base under kb/validation/2026-10-22-pr663-*.

User-feedback follow-up:

• Restore the exact linked Starter $0 platform-fee/unlimited-users/projects/languages comparison and the portable-file takeaway. Broaden customer evidence to current Ramp, Cursor, and Profound deployments, linked to the Enterprise page.
• Restore the original evidence-led AI-accuracy summary; keep the GT workflow explanation in the body.
• After the separate scope review, remove the extra switcher event-target guard and SVG detail, and restore original case-insensitive locale matching. Retain Escape/focus restoration and the other accepted fixes. Targeted browser and routing checks pass.
• KB, reference-link, internal-link, and production-build checks pass for this follow-up; independent critique approved all changed passages.
