What languages do you specialise in?
We primarily manage in-house translation and localisation from Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and French into English, along with expert US English to UK English localisation. Additionally, through our extensive network of certified translators and DTP specialists, we handle multilingual projects across APAC, LATAM, and EMEA.
How do you ensure translation quality?
Our process includes professional linguists, thorough linguistic reviews, and dedicated quality assurance checks. We also maintain glossaries and style guides tailored to each client’s needs to ensure accuracy, consistency, and cultural relevance. For instance, we have just completed a thorough style guide and terminology review for a major entertainment streaming platform.
Can you handle urgent or high-volume projects?
Yes. We have extensive experience managing large-scale and time-sensitive projects without compromising quality. For example, last year we delivered 2 million words of US to UK English content for a major payment services provider.
What industries do you serve?
Our expertise spans fintech, healthcare, automotive, film & TV, marketing, HR, and PR sectors, among others. We tailor our approach to meet the unique requirements of each industry.
Do you offer desktop publishing services?
Absolutely. Our team includes seasoned multilingual DTP specialists who ensure your translated content is perfectly formatted and visually consistent across all languages and platforms. We have many years of experience working with InDesign, FrameMaker, Illustrator, and Rise/Storyline, as well as Word, PowerPoint, Publisher and Visio. We are happy to accommodate other format requirements.

How do you manage cultural differences in localisation?
Beyond linguistic translation, we adapt content to align with cultural norms, preferences, and legal requirements of the target market. This includes modifying idioms, imagery, tone, and formatting as needed to resonate with local audiences.
Can you support projects requiring multiple languages simultaneously?
Yes. Thanks to our extensive global network, we co-ordinate multilingual projects across numerous languages, managing workflow to ensure timely delivery and consistency.
How do you protect client confidentiality?
We take confidentiality seriously and operate under strict NDAs and security protocols to protect all client information and intellectual property.
