FAQ
Is what you deliver the final version?
No. What we deliver is a "delivery draft": AI does about 95% of the work and compiles everything that needs human judgment into a to-confirm checklist. For notarization, certification, medical and legal documents, please have a professional review them.
Which languages are supported?
Initially, mutual translation among Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean and Spanish.
Can you handle scanned PDFs?
Yes, we run OCR first. Poorly scanned pages are listed separately in the to-confirm checklist.
What if I'm not happy with how a term or a person's name is translated?
Just edit the glossary; we re-run everything once for free with the new terms, and the whole book updates automatically.
Can the deliverables be imported into my own translation software?
Document services include XLIFF / TMX, which can be imported into Trados, memoQ, Phrase and similar tools for further refinement.
What about copyright?
Please upload files you have the right to use. Deliverables are for your own use or internal use by your organization only; to publish a translation publicly, you need authorization from the rights holder of the original work yourself.
Do I need an Agent.Space account to buy?
Yes. Please sign in or sign up before paying; the order is kept in that account. The service is paid once in US dollars. Agent.Space credits are not used.
How can I check the progress of my order?
Sign in to Agent.Space and open My orders.
