Five service families, clearly bounded.

• Target-language specialist with relevant subject knowledge
• Second-linguist revision where included in the quotation
• Terminology, technical and linguistic checks appropriate to the files
• Agreed feedback or correction round

Localisation can include dates, numbers, currencies, measurements, addresses, interface constraints and relevant cultural references. Design, typesetting, substantial file repair, copywriting and creative adaptation are quoted separately unless expressly included.

• Target-market copy developed from the approved creative brief
• The agreed number of options for key lines
• Back-translations or explanations where useful
• Rationale for material departures and stated channel constraints

Transcreation is not automatically included in a translation quotation. Legal, regulatory and substantiation approval for campaign claims remains with the client and its authorised advisers.

• Light or full post-editing defined before work begins
• Error model, severity, sample and threshold agreed for LQA
• Segment-level findings and corrections where quoted
• No third-party AI or MT processing without client agreement

Localex does not use machine translation for clinical, patient-safety or regulatory-submission content. Other healthcare content is assessed by content type, audience, consequence of error and agreed review pathway.

• Language combination, mode, location and duration confirmed
• Subject, briefing material and participant needs scoped
• Platform, equipment and cancellation responsibilities documented
• NDA requirements agreed before materials are shared

Interpretation is arranged per assignment rather than through a permanent in-house team. Short-notice work depends on availability, and hardware is included only where quoted.

• Translation or adaptation, timing and format checks where quoted
• Voice talent and recording resources coordinated per project
• Territory, media, duration and reuse rights agreed before recording
• Script, media, output format and deadline confirmed before quotation

We coordinate voice talent and recording resources per project rather than implying an owned studio or exclusive roster. Script changes, music, effects and advanced audio design are separate unless expressly included.
