Freelancers, please direct your e-mails to our freelance@tectranslate.de address (please write in English or German). All your e-mails will be read (even if it may not be possible for us to answer them all), so there is no need to send to info and webmaster as well. Thank you.

tectranslate is a translation agency in southern Germany. Founded by two former employees of a renowned translation company in 2003, we are aiming to establish a name as a reliable partner for translators and end clients alike. Please see our web site www.tectranslate.com for more information.

Note to fellow ProZ: The "tectranslate" you see roaming the KudoZ and forums sections is Benjamin while translation jobs are posted by various employees of our company.

Our base for calculating prices is the word in the source language. This applies to all documents except hardcopies and possible minimum charge jobs. Translators are expected to give TM pricing schemes with discounts for matches (our clients are expecting the same thing.)

Trados preferred.

Most of our in-house staff are NOT translators but all of us are quite experienced in the field of translation and technically skilled, e.g. when it comes to preparing tagged files for import into TM tools or coming up with a creative way of handling difficult file formats more easily.

We work exclusively with native speakers of the target language and rarely with other agencies.
