Copywriting and content creation
Your brand voice should be at the heart of all your communications. A regular translation might not capture that tone, so you need a copywriter to keep your brand personality intact across all channels. Copywriting involves writing text from scratch for advertising or other marketing purposes.

Transcreation services
Transcreation combines translation and creativity. It is the total adaptation of your brand’s advertising and marketing communication, to make it locally relevant and impactful with the right audience. It’s typically used for short but powerful brand messages such as taglines, slogans, banners, and headers.
Style guide, tone-of-voice and terminology management
Defining your company’s stylistic and terminological preferences creates swifter workflows and less post-delivery edits. We’ll help gather crucial information about your brand and your stylistic preferences, as well as jargon and terms that are specific to your industry.
Multimedia: Voiceover, subtitling and transcription
Transcription is the process of taking speech from an audio or video recording and turning it in to text. We have extensive experience of converting audio to text for use in diverse contexts such as marketing, social media, e-learning, research and legal.
We also offer automatic, machine transcription followed by manual editing, if you need the job done faster. Using the transcript, we can generate both monolingual and manually translated target language subtitles.
Learn more about our subtitling, transcription or voice-over services.

Certified translation & apostille/notarisation

The requirements relating to legal equivalence translation differ from country to country. We can help you arrange everything from courier delivery to getting an apostille.
