  • Help & support content

    Help centres, FAQs, knowledge bases, support articles and user guidance.

  • Technical documentation

    Manuals, specifications, instructions and other technical material.

  • Product content

    Feature descriptions, release information, product updates and customer communications.

  • Corporate & marketing content

    Presentations, reports, campaigns, newsletters and other business content for technology companies.

SOFTWARE LOCALIZATION

Localization inside a product workflow

Software localization often involves short pieces of text that appear in a specific place in the product. The linguist may need context, screenshots, terminology and information about how the text is used.

  • Short strings

    Buttons, menus and messages often need concise wording that still makes sense in the interface.

  • Context

    The same word can require a different translation depending on where and how it appears.

  • Placeholders & variables

    Technical elements inside the text need to remain correct during translation.

  • Character limits

    Some interface elements have limited space and need shorter wording.

  • Repeated terms

    Feature names and interface terminology should remain consistent across the product.

  • Regular updates

    New strings can be handled as part of an ongoing localization process when the product changes frequently.

ONGOING RELEASES

Localization for regular product updates

Technology products change continuously. New features, interface strings, help articles and marketing content may need localization with every release.

  • Regular linguistic teams

    Where possible, the same linguists stay on the project and become familiar with the product.

  • Translation memory

    Approved previous translations remain available when similar content appears again.

  • Terminology

    Product names, features and technical terms can be maintained across languages.

  • Release schedules

    Translation and review can follow the client’s regular content and release cycle.

HOW WE WORK

From source content to localized release

  1. 01

    Project setup

    We confirm the languages, content types, files, deadlines and existing localization resources.

  2. 02

    Linguistic preparation

    Available terminology, translation memories, style guides and reference material are prepared for the team.

  3. 03

    Translation & localization

    Linguists translate the content according to its context, terminology and project requirements.

  4. 04

    Review & QA

    The agreed linguistic review and QA checks are completed before delivery.

  5. 05

    Delivery

    Localized content is returned in the required format or completed within the client’s project environment where access is available.

CONSISTENCY

Keeping product language consistent

The same product terminology often appears in software, documentation, marketing and support content. We can maintain shared language resources so the linguistic teams use the approved wording across projects.

  • Product terminology

    Feature names and other approved product terms can be recorded for regular use.

  • Translation memories

    Approved translations can be reused in later releases.

  • Style guides

    Language-specific instructions help keep tone, spelling and formatting consistent.

  • Client feedback

    Approved changes can be added to the resources used for future work.
