Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How much does translation cost?
We charge by the word and do a full quote for you before we start any work. Each language is priced differently because the translators are based in their native countries e.g. Canadian French will be done by a translator based in Canada. There are no hidden costs and we can usually do a full quote in under 15 minutes
How long will my project take?
Our professional translators will complete up to 2000 new words per working day, plus we need a little time to process your files and apply final quality control, so for a 10,000 word project we would estimate 5 days for the translation and one day for completion and quality control.
In an emergency or with a very tight deadline we can assign 2 or 3 translators which means 4000-6000 words per day is possible
Our Machine Translation service can produce millions of words in just a few hours and is suitable for many situations including e-commerce and internal documents
