Why you shouldn't rely on machine translation for email translation.
Email translation service
Customer feedback has become our service!
Are you also experiencing problems like these? (These are issues we've heard from our past clients.)
- I sometimes use Google Translate as a supplement, but the meaning is often unclear or there are obvious errors. (Mr. A, employee of a listed company)
- I once had a problem with an overseas business partner due to a misunderstanding in an email. (Ms. Y, employee of a trading company)
- Reporting on my work to my supervisor always takes too much time, which is interfering with my main duties. (Mr. T, employee of a foreign-owned company)
- I want to communicate instructions to our offshore outsourcing partners more clearly and effectively. (Mr. K, IT company employee)
I'm feeling anxious because I've never written an email in English before. (Ms. W, employee of a manufacturing company)
How is this different from a regular translation service?
① Cheap!
- Starting at ¥8.9 per character/word. Approximately ¥1,780 per email (calculated based on 200 characters/words per email).
• There is no minimum order fee, so we can accept orders starting from just one character/word. *This is made possible by introducing a prepaid points system.
② That's fast!
- We can complete the work on the same day in the shortest time possible (※An additional fee applies for express service).
Even with our standard turnaround time, we can accept orders until noon and complete them by 7 PM the next business day, ensuring you don't miss out on business opportunities.
③ Quality and security are also excellent!
• The quality is almost the same as our regular translation service, so please rest assured. *Equivalent quality to our checkless plan. • We strictly adhere to confidentiality. We also accept requests for signing a "Confidentiality Agreement".
Why shouldn't you rely solely on machine translation (Google Translate, DeepL, etc.) for email translation?
We asked customers who currently use our email translation service about the problems they faced when communicating with overseas business partners using only machine translation, and the two most common answers were as follows:
Because there are many mistranslations and omissions: In particular, if the source language contains typographical errors or ambiguous expressions that make the meaning difficult to understand, the results of machine translation (the translated text) can differ greatly (i.e., the meaning changes significantly), and in severe cases, the text can become completely incomprehensible. (Example) For example, "transfer" and "move" or "change" and "replace"—a human translator can notice these mistakes and translate them correctly as appropriate, but this is impossible for machine translation.
Because of confidentiality and data leakage issues: By using the free versions of Google Translate or DeepL Translate, you are agreeing to the terms of service which include providing the entered data to these companies. This creates a risk of trouble arising from the leakage of internal company data to other companies, and it is important to be aware that the information of who disclosed (leaked) the data is also managed. It's a case of "nothing is scarier than something that's free."
↓Therefore, we recommend our "email translation" service!↓
