Our Process

Analysis

The first step in software localization is to analyze the software and determine the scope of the project. This includes identifying the target audience, the languages to be supported, and any cultural or technical considerations.

Preparation

Preparation: The next step is to prepare the software for localization. This involves extracting all the text and content that needs to be translated, as well as any images, graphics, or multimedia elements.

Translation

Once the software has been prepared, the translation process can begin. This involves translating all the text and content into the target languages while ensuring accuracy, consistency, and cultural appropriateness.

Localization

After the translation is complete, the software needs to be localized. This involves adapting the software to meet the linguistic, cultural, and technical requirements of the target market. This may include modifying the software interface, adjusting date and time formats, and changing measurement units.

Integration

Once the localization is complete, the translated content needs to be integrated back into the software. This includes updating menus, buttons, and other user interface elements.

Testing

The next step is to test the software to ensure that it works correctly in the target market. This includes testing the translated content, ensuring that the software functions properly in the target environment, and verifying that the software meets all local regulations and requirements.

Deployment

After the testing is complete, the software can be deployed to the target market. This involves distributing the software to users, providing training and support, and monitoring feedback to identify any issues that need to be addressed.

Maintenance

Finally, software localization is an ongoing process that requires maintenance and updates over time. This may include updating the software for new languages, fixing bugs and issues, and adapting to changes in local regulations and requirements.

Subtitling

Videos have a unique way of reaching people. They reach the audience’s ears and eyes in impactful ways. Demonstrations, announcements, or advertisements, sometimes videos say it best!
