Something doesn’t add up.
“The vast majority (85.3%) of our respondents feel that having pre-purchase information in their own language is a critical factor in buying insurance and other financial services. […] The more valuable an item, the more likely it is that someone will want to read about the product and buy it in their own language.”
“Having information in their own language was more important to 56.2 percent of our total sample than a low price.”

Computer-assisted translation has considerable advantages when it comes to translating marketing and technical content. Here’s how it works:
We have fine-tuned this process over many years, using a reliable, secure platform and an optimized workflow.
In other words: With us, your translation project is in good hands.

A modern translation workflow gives you unprecedented control and flexibility.
All assets are stored in one central location, on secure servers. Translators only get access to the relevant resources. There are no delays or security leaks through e-mail attachments or other means of communication.
We translate content, not documents. Once a heading / sentence / table cell has been translated in one context / project, it can easily be reused everywhere – this is called “leverage” in the translation industry.
Put simply: more translations = more savings.
Our centralized, web-based approach allows us to add or swap service providers quickly. You can also bring in your own employees as translators or proofreaders.
No sentence has to be translated twice. Accordingly, the more work we do for your brand, the more you save by re-using content from your ever-growing translation memory.
Only “deltas” need to be translated.
As existing translations and term bases (dictionaries) are shared, translations will be more consistent across all formats. Speak with one voice, in all languages, on all platforms.
Translation memories and other data can easily be exported. If you want to work with another service provider, we’ll make all your data available in the industry-standard format (TMX). It’s your intellectual property, and you have already paid for it, so we don’t charge for this.
Fees for access to all these benefits and features are covered by our rates. Enjoy all the advantages of a high-end translation environment without any upfront investment.
