Localisation is the process of adapting content to a specific market, linguistic and cultural context. Unlike standard translations, localisation takes into account not only the language, but also terminology, communication style, cultural nuances, visual elements and the context in which the text will be used.
Professional editing that accurately synchronises audio and video.
We will take care of localisation
Our team helps ensure that your content is not only understandable, but also has effect on your local audience. We work with websites, software, mobile apps, marketing materials and other digital solutions. We engage native-speaking translators and editors with experience in the relevant market.
During the localisation process, we take into account cultural differences, user expectations, as well as legal and linguistic standards. We aim to ensure that the final result looks natural and professional, as if created specifically for the market it is intended for.
We ensure a consistent localisation process – from content analysis and terminology selection to final quality checks. Localisation tools and manage terminology databases and style guides are used to ensure that your content remains consistent and accurate across different markets, whilst staying true to your brand’s messaging.
A clear six-step process from your enquiry to the final result.
Enquiry analysis and selection of the solution
We assess the content, scope and purpose, and select the best solution: human translation, AI-assisted translation with post-editing or localisation.
Terminology and preparation

Localisation is not just about translation, but also about adapting content to a specific market. We aim to ensure that the text sounds natural and is both understandable and has effect on the target audience. This encompasses not only language, but also cultural aspects, terminology, style, legal requirements and market-specific characteristics. It is particularly important in terms of localisation of marketing content, where it is essential not only to convey the message accurately, but also to capture the audience’s attention and maintain the brand’s tone.
Do you localise websites and software?
Yes, we localise websites and software. In projects of this kind, it is not only accurate translation that matters, but also technical precision: maintaining the structure, formatting and stylistic consistency of the code. We use advanced CAT tools (such as SDL Trados Studio, MemoQ and Memsource) and quality assurance tools to ensure consistency in terminology and minimise the likelihood of errors. This enables us to work more efficiently and optimise the cost of a given project.
Do you work with texts in specific fields?
Yes, we work with content across a wide range of fields – from technical, legal and medical texts to marketing and IT projects. For every project, we select translators with experience in the relevant field, which allows us to ensure both terminological accuracy and appropriate style.
What are the main stages of localisation?
The localisation process involves several stages: assessing the material provided by the customer and the scope of the project; agreeing on the terminology (compiling glossaries, as necessary); setting up a team and preparation of the project; translation and editing; quality check (from both a linguistic and technical perspective); final review and delivery of the outcome to the customer. Consistency, accuracy and compliance with the customer’s requirements are ensured throughout the entire process.
How long does a localisation project take?
The time required depends on the scope, complexity and language combination of the project. Small projects can be completed in just a few days, whilst larger ones (such as website or software localisation) may take longer. Before starting work, we always set a clear deadline and stick to it.
How much does localisation cost?
The cost of localisation services, like the cost of text translation, depends on several factors, such as language combinations, the nature and length of the text, the subject area, the complexity and the deadline.

Is it possible to localise only part of the content?
Yes, we can tailor the localisation to suit your preferences and requirements. Depending on your objectives and budget, we can fully localise your content or just specific sections (e.g. homepages, product descriptions or marketing copy).
Can localisation help boost sales or user engagement?
Yes, a high-quality localised text has a direct impact on results. When content is tailored to a specific market, it becomes much clearer, more appealing and better aligned with users’ expectations. This nurtures brand trust, enhances the user experience and often leads to higher conversion rates. Properly localised content not only informs, but also persuades, turning it into a vital investment in successful communication on international markets.
