What it is

Let's be clear about what this is, because it's not the same as translating. Here we start from a translation that already exists, done by you, by someone else or by a machine. We read it sentence by sentence against the original: we check names, dates, numbers, terms and that the meaning is the same, and we make it read naturally in the other language. If the translation needs so many changes that it's better to redo it, we tell you before we start and give you the translation price, so you can decide. Revisions to translations we did ourselves are free: this service is for translations from other sources.

Who it is for

For you if you translated something yourself and want a second look, if you got a translation from another provider and want to confirm it's right, or if your company uses machine translation and needs a real person to finish it.

What’s included

  • Full sentence-by-sentence reading against the original
  • Correction of names, dates, numbers, terms and meaning
  • Style adjustments so it reads naturally
  • Final check by a second person
  • Corrected version delivered to your account
  • If you ask, a copy with the changes marked
  • Advance notice if it's better to retranslate, with its price

What’s not included

  • The signed certification and seal: if you need it, it's quoted as Certified translation of official documents, because our translator signs it
  • Translating from scratch: if needed, it's quoted as a translation and you decide
  • Proofreading single-language texts with no original
  • Legal advice: we only translate and review translations

How your investment is calculated

We count the translated text you give us. The first billing page covers up to 310 words (250 plus 60 courtesy words, given only once), and each additional page covers 250 more words: up to 310 words = 1 page; 311 to 560 = 2; 561 to 810 = 3. Example: a 300-word translation = 1 page = 12 USD. A 500-word one = 2 pages = 24 USD. If we see it's better to retranslate, we first give you the translation price for the right service. If you later want us to certify it, it's quoted as Certified translation of official documents.

You can add: Next day: +15 USD per page | Copy with marked changes (included if you ask) | Certified translation of official documents, if you later need it certified (quoted as a certified translation)

Next step: If you're submitting that translation for an official process and it must be certified, the next step is Certified translation of official documents: it's quoted as a certified translation, because the certification is signed by our translator. Write to us and we'll tell you how to continue.

What we need from you

  • The original document and its translation, preferably in Word or PDF; photos work if they're readable
  • What the translation is for, so we know how much detail to check
  • If you have company terms or names that must be written a certain way, share them
  • If you don't have the original at hand, let us know and we'll figure out how to get it together

Frequently asked questions

What's at stake if you submit a translation with errors?
A misspelled name, a wrong date or a sentence that says something else can get your document sent back or make the reader understand something different. Reviewing it first costs much less than repeating a process.
If you did my translation, do I pay for the review?
No. Revisions to our translations are free, included. This service is for translations done by you or someone else.
Do you review machine translations?
Yes. We read them against the original. If a review is enough, we charge for the review; if it's better to retranslate, we tell you first with the price and you decide.
Will you tell me what you changed?
Yes. If you ask, we also give you a copy with the changes marked.
Does the review make it certified?
The review leaves your translation correct, but it carries no certification. If you later want us to certify it, it's quoted as Certified translation of official documents, because the certification is signed by our translator.

We review translations between Spanish and English. If we see it's better to retranslate, we tell you before we start: you decide. If you're not sure what's best, write to us and we'll help, no obligation.
