Service ①High-quality translation with fast turnaround and low costAI Proofreading
Post-editing
What is AI proofreading post-editing?
This is an AI-driven post-editing service where machine-translated results are proofread by AI, followed by a final review and correction by a human.
If you already have machine-translated text or existing translations, we can also provide
AI proofreading and post-editing for those materials.
Machine translation, generative AI, and human expertise work
in unison to provide high-quality translations!
Service ②High-quality translation with fast turnaround and low costAsset accumulation
AI translation
What is asset-accumulating AI translation?
This is an AI translation service that utilizes translation assets such as glossaries and past translations to perform AI translation and post-editing, while accumulating work results as translation assets for future use
. By continuously updating and utilizing translation assets, it becomes easier to ensure consistency with past translations and reflect
client-specific stylistic rules.
Achieve consistent translations through a two-stage process of generative AI translation and human review,
further enhanced by the use of
translation assets!
Benefits of using generative AI for translation
Our new translation service utilizing generative AI compensates for "misinterpretation of context" and "unnaturalness due to literal translation" that often occur in machine translation, refining the translated text to a practical level.
For example, in addition to pointing out mistranslations, we can polish the text for more natural expression, unify the writing style, and suggest rewrites based on the field of use.
Furthermore, by having humans perform final adjustments based on context, cultural background, and field, we provide translations with quality close to human translation at a low cost and with speed.

Case Study Customer Testimonials and Implementation Examples
-
Chikyu no Arukikata
"GOOD LUCK TRIP"As this is a medium for visitors to Japan, a literal translation would not convey its appeal, and it also required "fit" and "readability" based on the premise of print (DTP).
Therefore, we created translations that can be used in accordance with multilingual page designs while adjusting expressions to suit the tourism context. -
Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (My Site Translation)
We needed to handle a large volume of approximately 600,000 characters across the entire website in a short period, while also maintaining consistent terminology and expressions for ongoing updates.
Therefore, we utilized translation support tools to reference past translations and unify terminology and style, achieving both quality and speed.
-
Official Website of a Railway Company in the Kansai Region
There are many proper nouns such as route names and station names, where mistranslations or inconsistencies directly affect the user experience. Furthermore, information for inbound tourists requires accuracy to avoid any misunderstandings.
Therefore, before starting the translation, we established a translation policy to organize the handling of proper nouns and used translation support tools to ensure the unification of terminology, thereby preparing the multilingual site for stable operation.
