A translation service built around people
Oakscribe puts people who need something translated in front of linguists who can genuinely do it, and keeps the process plain enough that you always know what you are paying for.

How we work
- People, not tidied machine output
- A human linguist writes your translation. We do not push the text through a machine, smooth over the result and call it a translation.
- One price, agreed first
- The per-word rate and the delivery time sit on screen before you order, and they stay where they were afterwards.
- Your text stays yours
- It reaches the assigned linguist and the people needed to deliver the job. It is not sold, shared, or fed into model training.
- Problems get put right
- If a translation misses the mark, send us the order reference and we correct it rather than argue about it.
Every job reaches someone who knows the subject
A contract, a clinical summary and a product page each need a different kind of reader. We match your text to a linguist who works in that field, in that language pair, and who came through our review before taking any paid work.
- Vetted on real samples
- Subject-matter matched
- Reviewed before delivery
Careful work takes longer and holds up better
A person reading with judgement catches what a literal swap misses: the clause that shifts the meaning, the term your industry really uses, the sentence that falls over when read aloud.
