The 3 Pillars: Translation, Editing and Proofreading

Translation Editing Proofreading

Cross-cultural communication starts with translation—but it doesn’t end there. To ensure your message is clear, accurate, and impactful, editing and proofreading are essential. These final steps refine your content, eliminate errors, and boost credibility with your target audience.

From legal contracts to marketing materials, every word matters. That’s why we go beyond translation to make sure your content is polished, precise, and ready to perform.

How Translation, Editing & Proofreading Guarantee Accuracy

Getting your message right in another language takes more than just translation. That’s why we follow the full TEP process:

  • Translating your content in the target language.
  • Editing ensures clarity, consistency, and accuracy.
  • Proofreading catches the final typos, grammar issues, and formatting errors.

Together, these steps guarantee high-quality, polished content—ready to perform in any market.

Why TEP Matters Across Industries

From legal contracts to marketing campaigns and published books, TEP ensures precision and credibility. For businesses expanding into new markets, this process is critical—especially when even minor translation errors can cause legal or reputational damage.

TEP for Asian Languages: Precision Required

Asian languages bring added complexity—unique grammar, writing systems, and cultural context. Our TEP process is led by native linguists with deep expertise in both source and target languages, ensuring every nuance is translated accurately.

Language Leaders (LL)

Every language we support has a dedicated leader behind it. This expert ensures consistent quality and smooth workflows from start to finish. If any issues arise, the language leader (not the original translator or editor) steps in to resolve them quickly and professionally.

Qualified Translators

All our translators go through rigorous testing and training to master CAT tools, client-specific style guides, and workflow standards. 80% of our work is handled by our in-house teams. Most of our freelance partners are former in-house translators who now work remotely—so the quality stays consistent, wherever they’re based.

Experienced Editors

Our editors have proven track records in translation and are fully fluent in the CAT tools our clients use. We carefully select professionals with the experience needed to catch errors, ensure consistency, and elevate the final translation.

Proofreaders

As the final step in our translation process, our proofreaders catch any remaining issues and fine-tune the text. Their work makes a measurable difference in delivering high-quality, ready-to-publish translations.
