Twenty-Plus Years of Track Record
We have worked as a translation service provider since 2002, with a long record across legal, medical, financial, and technical specialisms.
What a Translation Service Provider Should Be
Buyers of translation services tend to face two extremes: machine translation engines that move fast but produce output needing significant rework, and large language service providers whose project management overhead inflates timelines and cost.
What a translation service provider should be
We occupy the middle ground most professional buyers actually need: human translators with subject matter expertise, project managers who know your account, and pricing that reflects the value of qualified specialist work.
How we work as your provider
We have worked as a translation service provider since 2002, from our headquarters in Valencia, Spain. Our translator network spans 50+ languages and a wide range of specialisms, from EU regulatory translation to software localization for Silicon Valley teams and marketing transcreation.
We do not subcontract to other agencies. Every project is handled by a translator we have worked with directly and who has demonstrated competence in your subject area.
Meetings, hearings and conferences are covered by our conference interpreting services, and documents that an authority asks to see certified go through our certified translation services.
What Makes Us Different
Native-Specialist Translators
Projects go to native-speaker translators with professional experience or qualifications in their subject area. No machine output is passed off as human translation.
50+ Languages, Headquartered in Valencia
Coverage across European, Asian, Middle Eastern, and African languages. Every project is managed from our headquarters in Valencia, Spain.
Two-Stage Quality Process
Every translation goes through a translator and an independent reviewer before delivery. Certified, sworn, and notarized translation available where required.
Questions to Ask Before You Choose a Provider
Start with who actually translates. A provider should be able to tell you that each text goes to a native speaker of the target language with experience in your subject, and that a second linguist reviews it before delivery. Ask whether the provider relies on its own vetted translators or passes work along to other agencies, because the answer affects accountability and consistency.
Questions to Ask Before You Choose a Provider
Then ask how terminology is kept consistent. Glossaries and translation memory carry approved terms from one project to the next, which matters when several people translate for you over a year. Finally, ask what happens to your files: who sees them, and whether a non-disclosure agreement is available before you send anything.
How a Translation Project Runs From Quote to Delivery
You send the files or a scan of the document, name the language pair, and give the deadline. A project manager reviews the material, confirms the scope, and returns an itemized quote with a delivery date. Nothing starts until you approve it.
How a Translation Project Runs From Quote to Delivery
The text is then translated, reviewed by a second linguist, and checked for formatting before it reaches you. Delivery is usually a file in the original format, and a signed PDF or a paper original by post can be arranged for documents that need a certificate. Comments from your side are added to the glossary, so later projects start from your preferred terms.
Written, Spoken, and Certified Services Under One Provider
Most buyers need more than one kind of language work. A single provider can cover written files such as contracts and reports, website content, and software strings, as well as spoken work through conference and business interpreters. Keeping both with one team means the same terminology appears on the page and in the room.
Written, Spoken, and Certified Services Under One Provider
Documents for official use form a third category. A certified translation comes with a signed certificate of accuracy, and some authorities, such as a German Landgericht or a Spanish Registro Civil, want a sworn translator's signature instead. Whether the receiver is a US state court, USCIS, or a European consulate, it decides what it accepts, and we check its requirements first.
Who Uses a Translation Service Provider
Law firms and in-house legal teams need contracts, pleadings, and corporate records translated with the right terminology, which is the work of specialist legal translators. Manufacturers send manuals, safety data sheets, and tender documents, while hospitals and research teams need medical translators for clinical records and trial documents.
Who Uses a Translation Service Provider
Individuals use providers too. Students send transcripts to a university admissions office, families send birth and marriage certificates to a Standesamt, an Italian Comune, or a US county clerk, and employees relocating abroad file papers with a foreign-residents office. Each receiver has its own rules, so the first question is always who will read the translation.
How Pricing and Turnaround Are Set
Translation is usually priced per word, with the rate depending on the language pair, the subject, and the deadline. Common pairs and general content cost less than rare pairs and specialist fields such as patents or clinical studies. An itemized quote before work starts lets you compare providers on the same basis.
How Pricing and Turnaround Are Set
Turnaround depends on length and complexity rather than on the calendar alone. A short certificate can often be returned within a day or two, while a long contract or a website is planned in stages with a confirmed delivery date. Tell your provider about any hard deadline, such as a court filing or an immigration appointment, when you ask for the quote.
