Industry experience

From translation agencies to in-house teams.

Language service providers

Translation and localization agencies we work for as their DTP, OCR, and layout production arm — behind the scenes, and we don’t poach your clients.

In-house teams

Language and localization teams that keep translation in-house — including clinical research and life sciences, and legal, where formatting and accuracy leave no room for error.

FAQ

Questions agencies ask first.

What file formats do you work with?

All common DTP and office formats: PDF, DOCX, INDD/IDML, AI, EPS, PSD, PowerPoint, Visio, and CAD files such as DWG. Source files of any quality, including scans and unformatted drawings, are fine.

How fast can I get a quote?

A cost and timing estimate for a document of any complexity is typically returned within 15 minutes of receiving the source files.

How is pricing calculated?

We charge per page or per hour, depending on the task and what works best for you. Within that, pricing factors in page count, source complexity, target languages, and turnaround. After reviewing your files we return a fixed quote and can suggest ways to optimize cost or speed.

Do you integrate with TMS tools?

Yes. Finished files are delivered by email or uploaded directly into your TMS environment, ready for translation or post-translation layout.

Is my clients’ data confidential?

Yes. Every workstation is password protected and files are encrypted during processing, transfer, and exchange. We work as a production partner for LSPs and don’t poach your clients.
