Patent Translation and IP Language Operations
Descriptions, claims and abstracts ready for filing, with bilingual review, terminology alignment and structured QA across single filings, patent families and portfolios.
A team of translators and subject-matter experts managed on a proprietary collaborative platform
Our services
Before filing
When terminology starts to diverge across members of the same patent family
When reviewers need a bilingual file to work from, not manual side-by-side comparisons
When you're accumulating scattered translation memories, email comments and unconsolidated terminology decisions
When you want to reduce recurring errors in claims, numerals, cross-references and key terms
What problem we solve
Beyond translating IP documents, we take on concrete operational problems.
Do you have an EP/PCT/national application that needs to move into any target language on a tight deadline?
Do you already have a translation but want a claim-by-claim check before review or filing?
Do you have four members of the same patent family with terminology that's no longer aligned?
Do you have historical filings, reviewer comments and scattered revisions, but no consolidated terminology asset?
Do you have late-stage changes to claims or description and need a delta update, not a full rework?
Do you want to reduce repetitive errors in numerals, antecedents, references, defined terms and claim dependencies?
Which documents we work on
Our offerings
Six services built for teams working with real IP documents, not generic copy. Each offering addresses a specific operational problem.

No commitment. Just an initial conversation to understand where to start.
