Base rate for straightforward texts and common language pairs. Specialist terminology, rare languages, certification, urgency and layout are quoted separately.
A billing page means 250 source words, not one sheet of a file. Starting rates depend on language and complexity. Certification, scan recognition, complex layout and urgency are quoted separately. We agree the price and deadline before work starts.
Standard from $2.2 · With revision from $4.4 · per 250 source words
Overview
We work with editable files and scans. Before quoting, we clarify the language pair, audience, document purpose and formatting requirements. A contract, research paper and advertising text need different approaches even at the same word count.
Choose standard translation with self-revision or a service with an independent reviser. We resolve terminology and ambiguous passages during the project and deliver the agreed file format.
What you receive

How this work runs.
- 01
Brief and scope
We read the actual documents, confirm the purpose and audience, and return a fixed price and date. No estimate is issued from a word count alone.
- 02
Assignment
We assign a translator experienced in the subject. If you choose the revision tier, a second linguist is assigned for an independent review.
- 03
Translation
Drafting against your approved glossary and translation memory, with queries raised early rather than guessed at.
- 04
Revision
The translator checks the finished text. In the revision tier, a second linguist also compares accuracy, terminology, register and completeness against the source.
- 05
Delivery and aftercare
Delivered in your working format with a certificate where required. Queries after delivery are answered by the same team, at no charge.
What clients ask before the first file.
Send us the document. We will read it before we quote.
First reply within 30 minutes during business hours. We agree the price and deadline after file review, usually within one business day.
