Brainwoods Translation Service | We support translation, proofreading, editing, native review, layout adjustment, and DTP.
For clients considering translation for a wide range of documents, we explain our translation service flow and important notes for using the service.
At Brainwoods, we listen carefully to your requirements and preferred conditions, and, when necessary, hold a meeting before proposing the translation solution best suited to your project.
This translation service is designed for corporate and business clients.

Our staff will discuss your requirements in detail by phone, email, or video call.

Please review the delivery schedule, pricing, and business terms. If everything looks good, let us know by email that you would like to place the order.
Based on your requirements, our coordinator selects the most suitable translator. A translator specializing in the relevant field then performs the initial translation. If we need to confirm any details about the document content, the coordinator will check with you as needed and proceed carefully.
After the initial translation, we apply a two-step review process consisting of proofreading and editing. We identify issues such as mistranslations, omissions, and terminology inconsistencies, and refine the wording and expressions to produce a polished final translation.
Except in the case of Draft work.
One of the processes above (translation, proofreading, or editing) is handled by a native specialist in the target language. For Japanese-to-English translation, that means English, and the result is shaped into a natural, fluent translation.
Except in the case of Draft work.
We adjust layout shifts caused by differences in text volume after translation. We also provide DTP work in line with your requirements.
Once the translation is complete, we will deliver it via Google Drive or as an email attachment. We also support delivery to your preferred online storage service.
You will review the translation on your side. If you have any questions or requests regarding terminology or wording, please feel free to let us know.
Our team will respond carefully to any questions you may have. If a revision is needed, we will make one revision free of charge in principle.
* Depending on the content, additional fees may apply for revisions.
After your review, or by the previously agreed deadline, we will send the invoice as a PDF.
We conduct an optional survey about the overall service experience, including staff support and translation quality. We use the responses to keep improving our service quality.
Your feedback will be reflected in your next request.
Please contact us using the inquiry form on this website.
It takes at least one to two business days from inquiry to the start of translation work. During this time, we explain our services, confirm and propose terms, select the translator, and create the schedule. For that reason, we do not accept translation and delivery on the day of the initial inquiry. Once we have started working together, same-day or next-day delivery from the date of the manuscript request may be possible if you consult with us in advance.
Information we obtain from clients by phone, email, web form, or similar means is strictly managed within the company. For details on how we handle personal information, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
