Verified
AI Translation
Produce a reliable version of an AI translation generated by your company or our agency.
Your people may already be translating with AI. The question is no longer whether AI can translate, but whether the result can be published under your name.
Our starting point is your situation. You have a translation: first, we assess its quality, then we check it. You have content to translate: we prepare the AI with your data, then our linguists check each segment.
Depending on your starting point
You already have a translation or content to be translated: we start from there.

Endorsed AI Translation
You have produced a translation using AI. Before making any corrections, we check with you to see how good this translation is.
01
We discuss how you produced this translation
Which tool did you use? What instructions did you give? Did you use a glossary or model translation? Who proofread it, and is this person familiar with your business in the target language?
02
Quality assessment of an excerpt
A specialised native linguist compares the excerpt with the source text. They classify each error by category and severity using a template that we share with you.
03
A clear conclusion before any order is placed
We tell you whether your translation can be used as a working basis before you order the verification or translation service.
Scenario 1 · Usable working basis
We endorse your translation
A specialised native linguist reviews the text, focusing on meaning, terminology, language and compliance with your instructions. Their work is bolstered by a set of AI-assisted checks. We store your approved terminology choices. We send you the corrected translation.
Scenario 2 · Raw AI output
We offer you Managed AI Translation
Correcting it would cost almost as much as starting again from scratch…and would still leave errors. The correct terms in your translation are added to your glossary.
What our assessment covers
We issue our opinion on the basis of errors identified and classified.
Compliance with your instructions
Register, tone, target audience, mandatory or prohibited terms
Meaning
Mistranslations, omissions, additions and inaccuracies versus the source text
Linguistics
Spelling, grammar, punctuation, figures and names
Terminology
Incorrect or inconsistent terminology
Style
Phrasing copied from the source language, sentences that sound unnatural to a native speaker
Formatting
Tags, lists, layout, untranslated elements
Critical
The error changes the meaning or may have consequences for you: safety, contractual commitment, incorrect figure.
Serious
The error is visible to the reader and damages your credibility.
Minor
The text remains accurate, but could be improved.
A translation that reads well may still contain critical errors. This is often the case with raw AI output: it reads smoothly, but is never aligned with your vocabulary.
You have content to be translated
Managed AI Translation
You have a large volume to translate, or your translation cannot be used as a basis. We produce the translation using an AI we have prepared specifically for your content. Then it is checked by our linguists.
1
Preparation of your terminology
Your glossaries, reference translations and approved documents. If not, we will compile a glossary in consultation with you.
2
AI translation configured with your data
Your terminology and instructions are fed into the engine prior to translation.
3
AI-assisted quality control
Non-compliant terms, altered figures, omitted segments.
4
Review by a native-speaker linguist
Meaning, terminology and language, segment by segment.
5
Final endorsement by a specialised translator
The translator resolves any issues outstanding after the AI translation and revision process.
Your terminology is remains intact from one project to the next: each new translation starts from a more comprehensive base.

Verified AI Translation FAQs
Why not correct our translation directly?
Because correction is only worthwhile if the translation is already sound. We would correct the raw AI output sentence by sentence without addressing the underlying terminology issues. The assessment avoids paying for a proofreading service that would still leave errors behind.
We don’t know how the translation was produced. Is that a problem?
No. While the initial discussion helps us to understand your choices, it is not an essential step. The assessment focuses on the text: an expert linguist compares the translation excerpt with the source text and identifies any errors, regardless of the solution used to translate it.
What happens to the work already done by our teams?
We keep it if it is correct. If your translation is good enough to form a working basis, we will revise it rather than rewrite it, while preserving your approved terminology choices. Otherwise, the correct terms are added to your glossary and used to fuel Managed AI Translation.
How does this differ from Expert Translation?
Verification involves producing an improved version of an AI translation generated by your company or our agency. Expert Translation starts with the source text, which is translated by a human translator specialising in your field and then proofread by a second linguist. This option is ideal for documents that could incur your liability or affect your image.
How much does verification cost?
The price depends on the volume, the languages and the quality of your translation: that’s why we start with the assessment. For a reasonably sized excerpt, we offer the service free of charge. We then propose an appropriate fixed fee.
