I'm most curious about the cost of translation services, but I'm worried because I can't find anywhere that tells me.
Getting started
The most important thing when entrusting a translation service is the budget. So, many people are curious about roughly how much it will cost. There are quite a few people who are confused because there is no exact standard for this. So today's note I prepared is about translation service estimates. I would like to talk about how translation estimates are usually made and how LETR WORKS provides estimates for translation services.
Factors to consider when paying for translation services
Let’s assume that a company or a freelance translator is in charge of translating for a client. In situations like these, translation companies and freelance translators need to know as much detail as possible about their clients’ circumstances. I would like to give you some examples. First, you need to know what the client's desired deadline is. Next, of course, you need to know what the content they want to translate is and what language it needs to be translated into. When calculating the cost of translation services, there are so many different standards that it is not easy to unify and organize them.
The unit price may vary depending on the level of difficulty for each specialty, which is called the rate, and it may also vary depending on the source and destination languages. Of course, it may also vary depending on when the deadline is. Also depending on the writing style, and in the case of video translation, additional costs may be added because transcription work must be done first. It is actually very difficult to accurately calculate the standard for translation service costs as there are so many cases, even just to list a few. In some ways, it may be natural that costs vary from company to company and translator to translator.
How is LETR WORKS’ translation service cost determined?
You can use LETR WORKS through subscription. We provide services divided into professional, team, and business categories by varying the number of characters, video time, and number of groups that can be created. You can select the service you want to subscribe to considering the amount and time of the project you plan to work on. There are plans for individuals that can be used for free, as well as professional, team, and business plans, so it would be a good idea to check them out.
Enterprise plan tailored to your situation
If you decide that the given basic plan does not suit your situation, custom services are also available through Enterprise. Enterprise is a custom service for companies that have large content holdings or need content localization in special environments. Upon application, a dedicated support representative is assigned, and customized costs and contracts are negotiated. I think it would be a good idea to carefully and slowly review the rate plans and then select the rate plan that suits you most and use the translation service.
