Work
The plan meets reality.
Different destinations call for different decisions.
01 · Regulated multilingual programme · Financial services
Machine translation was fine for Spanish. Not for Lithuanian.
A fintech launching regulated investment products across Europe needed key information documents, customer agreements and privacy content in twenty-two languages, with more products expected to follow.
The decision
We tested it on real content, language by language. Each language got the workflow its results supported.
The programme went into production with a workflow defined by language rather than assumption.
02 · AI translation quality · Global operations
The client built its own AI translation. We built the way to know when to trust it.
A global company uses AI-translated messages and product specifications between teams in Europe and manufacturers in Asia. A changed measurement, quantity or product code can reach a production line.
Linguistic judgment
Evaluated by an AI model. Native linguists review samples of its scores.
Measurements, quantities, product codes
Checked by code.
An AI model that is usually right about “1.5 cm” is not good enough for a factory.
This work is still in progress. The client keeps its translation technology. What it gains is a way to decide where that technology can be trusted and where it needs scrutiny.
03 · Connected workflow · Multi-brand enterprise
The content stayed in the client’s system.
The answer was not to give the client a new localization portal and ask everyone to change how they worked. It was to connect the localization operation to the client’s environment.
Request in the client’s system
The team submits content from the environment it already uses.
Create and route the project
The integration connects the request to the production workflow.
Translate and check
Linguists work with the configured tools, terminology and review requirements.
Return the completed content
Translations flow back into the client’s environment.
The localization operation adapted to the client. The client did not have to adapt to the localization operation.
Security and quality
The operation also has to stand up to scrutiny.
Kobalt is certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 17100. Our client portal was independently penetration-tested and retested by Securitum in 2026.
