CONSULTING SERVICE

Simply implementing a translation tool does not complete the systemization or automation of the translation process.

From strategy development to building operational workflows.
A hands-on consulting service that designs optimal collaboration between AI and people.

Are you facing these challenges?

Tools are not being used

Translation tools were implemented, but they haven't taken root in the workplace, and people have ended up going back to manual work.

Quality is inconsistent

The accuracy of AI translation is low, resulting in a huge amount of time spent on post-editing.

Processes are fragmented

Translation processes differ by department for web, manuals, support documents, etc., leading to inefficiency.

Costs are not decreasing

Communication costs with overseas offices and outsourced translation expenses remain high.

Cistate's Approach

We build the optimal translation process from both technical and operational perspectives.

Process DX

We visualize existing translation workflows and identify bottlenecks. We identify automation opportunities through AI implementation and propose a new workflow that dramatically shortens lead times.

Data Strategy

We organize and leverage past translation assets (Translation Memory) and develop strategies to optimize AI training data. We train the AI on your company's unique terminology and style to improve quality.

Human-in-the-loop

We establish optimal boundaries (quality standards) between areas handled by AI and those checked by humans. We build a sustainable operational framework that balances cost and quality.

Example Support Services

Current State Analysis & Assessment
We conduct a detailed analysis of your current translation costs, quality, and processes, and create a diagnostic report that visualizes challenges and potential areas for improvement.
PoC (Proof of Concept) Support
We conduct a proof of concept (PoC) to evaluate the effectiveness of AI translation before full-scale implementation. We support everything from designing to evaluating pilot operations, clarifying the return on investment.
Guideline Development
We develop "pre-editing" guidelines for writing Japanese that is easier for AI to translate, as well as rules for maintaining and operating glossaries.
In-house Implementation Support
We provide support for building internal teams to handle translation tasks previously outsourced, as well as AI utilization training (post-editing workshops).
