Tier

Named honestly: machine-translated first, then edited by a human linguist. Lower cost, a different quality profile — a deliberate choice for high-volume, lower-risk content, never a hidden default.

Add-ons

For documents that need to be reproduced in their original layout (diagrams, tables, multi-column manuals), not just delivered as plain text.

How this service runs

01

Glossary set-up

Configure your order; a project glossary is built from any reference material or previous translations you provide.

02

Assigned & translated

By a technical linguist (full-human tier) or via the machine-translated, human-post-edited pipeline (MT tier).

03

Checked

Reviewed for terminology consistency against the glossary; full-human tier adds an independent second-linguist check.

04

Delivered

Digital, glossary-matched, with optional DTP layout formatting.

One glossary, applied across every manual, datasheet and revision in the same project — so "torque" doesn't become three different words across one document set.

Turnaround & pricing

Standard is 4–6 business days and scales with volume — the MT-post-edited tier (−40%) is specifically built for high-volume documentation on a release schedule. The €60.00 minimum applies to any order under 500 words.

How every order is handled

Two-linguist review

Every order is completed by one linguist and checked by a second before delivery.

Traducción jurada is a regulated category under Spanish law — every certified order is prepared to that legal standard and delivered with a signed certification statement.

Confidentiality as standard

Documents are handled under a confidentiality process; an NDA is available on request.

Turnaround stated before you order

Standard, rush and express windows are shown before you add it to your cart.

Technical & Engineering Translation FAQ

Full human translation is completed by a linguist and checked by a second before delivery — our standard process. The machine-translated, human-post-edited tier runs the source through machine translation first, then a human linguist edits the output — faster and 40% cheaper, with a different quality profile.

No. It's a tier you select in the configurator, named exactly what it is — it is never the default and never applied without your choice.

A project glossary is built once and applied to every document in the same order or account, so updates and new manuals stay consistent with what's already shipped.

Add DTP / layout formatting (€55/hour) to have the translation reproduced in your original layout — tables, diagrams and multi-column manuals included.

Contact us via /quote/ to scope a standing rate and turnaround for an ongoing release schedule, rather than configuring each document individually.
