First Draft Translation
First Draft Translation is a fast, low-cost professional translation service that is best suited for documents required for internal information purposes only rather than for publication; e.g. if you need to know the general message of an email or business document you have received in another language.
Like all our service levels, with First Draft Translation the workflow is assigned to a carefully vetted, fully-qualified mother-tongue translator. You will also have a dedicated Project Manager who will be there to ensure everything runs smoothly.
You will receive two documents back: a ‘clean’ version of the translated text, and a second version including comments from the translator, highlighting any translation issues. Upon reviewing the translator’s comments, you can then request a supplementary ‘consultation and editing’ service that is charged by the hour.
We can deliver up to 1700 translated words per working day.
