GeoFluent for Spaces by Moxie integrates Lionbridge's GeoFluent customized real-time translation with Moxie's enterprise Chat, Community and Knowledgebase solutions, offering enterprises a number of powerful features and benefits including the ability to:
- Increase Revenue Conversions: Allows any Moxie-enabled service agent to immediately chat with customers and prospects in their native language before, during, and following the buying process.
- Reduce Support Costs: Provides on-demand translation of support pages, forums and knowledge bases to encourage web self-service.

- Increase Agent Productivity: Supports multiple, simultaneous multilingual customer interactions and provides an intuitive interface, knowledgebase integration and pre-translated "canned" responses to ensure optimum efficiency and quality.
- Protect Sensitive Company and Customer Data: Includes enhanced security features that overwrite customer's sensitive information, such as credit card and social security numbers, from all chat and forum transcripts and supports PCI initiatives.
