Why Certified Human Translation is Always the Best
For businesses and firms seeking professional translation services to promote better practices and communications in foreign markets, no true comparison can be made between human translation and machine translation.
Although machine translation possesses certain benefits, such as lower cost and shorter turnaround, business communications are simply held to a higher standard and cannot risk the 60-80% accuracy rate associated with machine translation. Human translation services are able to provide not only a deep understanding of the translation, but the context and culture surrounding it. In the business world, Certified Human Translation is the most viable option.
How Our Pricing Works
We offer reliable, accurate translations that never contain hidden fees for basic services. As a trusted provider of professional translations, we never charge more for what should always be included in translation services: proofreading, quality assurance, and ongoing maintenance of a custom translation memory.
Here’s how our pricing process for translation services works:
REQUEST A QUOTE: You submit a project to our team with all the specifics about your input/output languages, word count, and any other details needed.
PROJECT REVIEW: We take a look at your project and compare it to your translation memory, while also reviewing timeline, delivery formats, and more.
YOUR CUSTOMIZED PRICE: With no surprises hidden in your quote, your customized price per word includes all levels of translation services.
What’s a Translation Memory?
A Translation Memory is your personal database of remembered words, sentences, and even full paragraphs that have all been translated previously; this is the key to how our "translate more, save more" pricing system works. We’ll never charge for repeatedly translated words, so there is always a discount on total cost.
