Frequently Asked Questions


What services does SpanishTech provide?

SpanishTech specializes in English-Spanish communications, localization, workforce training, healthcare communications, Learning Management Systems (LMS), safety and compliance communications, voice-over narration, educational multimedia, technical localization, and bilingual websites.

Our focus is helping organizations communicate important information to Spanish-speaking audiences clearly and effectively.


Do you only work with English and Spanish?

Yes.

For more than 24 years, SpanishTech has specialized exclusively in English-Spanish communications.

This focused specialization allows us to provide deeper language expertise, cultural understanding, and subject-matter experience than many providers who attempt to support dozens of languages.


Do you provide translation services?

Yes.

However, translation is often only one part of the communication process.

Many projects also involve localization, content adaptation, voice-over narration, LMS integration, website deployment, technical implementation, and quality assurance.

Our goal is not simply translating words.

Our goal is helping audiences understand the message.


What is the difference between translation and localization?

Translation converts content from one language to another.

Localization adapts content for a specific audience, taking into account culture, terminology, user experience, training objectives, and communication goals.

In many cases, localization helps organizations communicate more effectively than a direct word-for-word translation.


Can you review and improve existing Spanish content?

Absolutely.

Many organizations already have Spanish content when they contact us.

That content may have been created by:

  • Internal staff
  • Volunteers
  • Bilingual employees
  • Automated translation tools
  • Previous service providers

SpanishTech can review, edit, localize, improve, and quality-check existing Spanish content.


Do you work with AI-generated translations?

Yes.

AI tools can often provide a useful starting point.

However, many organizations ask SpanishTech to review AI-generated content to ensure accuracy, consistency, cultural appropriateness, technical correctness, and audience understanding.

AI can generate words.

Organizations often need help ensuring those words communicate effectively.


Why should I hire SpanishTech instead of using Google Translate?

Google Translate and other automated tools can be useful for informal communication.

However, organizations often need additional review when communications involve:

  • Employee safety

These situations require accuracy, context, audience awareness, and quality control.
