Your AI translation isn’t winning you clients?

A poor translation chips away at your brand’s credibility.

Machine translation seems like the easy route — but easy doesn’t mean effective.

Light post-editing

When technical accuracy is what matters most.

Technical manuals
Product sheets
Presentations

How it works:

I compare your source text against the AI or machine output. I ensure terminology is correct, fix errors in meaning and grammar, and keep the original syntax and structure largely intact.

Why choose this option:

Fast turnaround
Ideal for large volumes
Up to 50% cost savings

Full post-editing

When accuracy and style both matter.

Best for:

Texts for publication
Anything that represents your brand

How it works:

I compare your source text against the AI or machine output. Beyond terminology and grammar, I refine the style too.

How? Breaking up long sentences. Reshuffling clauses. Making the text flow naturally.

The result:

A translation that speaks with your voice.

Proofreading

The final check before you hit publish.

Best for:

Human translations or already-edited AI output

How it works:

I read the translation only — no source comparison.
I correct grammar, spelling, punctuation and syntax.

The result:

A polished, professional text. Ready to go.

I had an excellent experience working with Giada. Her work was accurate, clear, and captured not only the words but also the tone of the original text. Communication was smooth and professional, deadlines were always met, and the quality consistently met our expectations. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for reliable and precise translations.

FAQs

How do I know if I need light or full post-editing?

It depends on your goal. If you need a translation that’s accurate and easy to understand, light post-editing is the way to go. If you want a translation that reads like the original — natural and fluent — full post-editing is the better choice.

Not sure? Get in touch and we’ll find the right fit for your needs.

How much does post-editing or proofreading cost?

It depends on several factors:

Quality of the machine translation
Length of the text
Level of editing required
Creative content or not

If AI is so good at translating, why should I pay a professional to review it?

AI is fast — and getting better. But it still makes mistakes only a human can catch. Inconsistent terminology. Odd phrasing. Cultural nuances lost in translation.

And here’s the thing: AI doesn’t know when it gets it wrong. A human does.

Machine translation won’t sell your product, represent your values, or convey your voice. A professional review ensures your text reaches your goals.
