FAQ

Common Questions

Do I need to read Japanese to understand your reports? ▾
No. Every report is delivered in English. Annotated screenshots, Before/After tables, and quality scores are all designed to be fully readable by product managers, developers, and founders who don't read Japanese.
What file formats do you deliver? ▾
Reports are delivered as a PDF for easy sharing plus an editable document (Google Docs or Word) so your team can track fixes and comment directly on findings.
Can I request a review of AI-translated content? ▾
Yes — AI Translation Review is one of my primary services. I specialize in identifying the specific patterns where AI translation produces technically correct but unnatural or untrustworthy Japanese.
How do I pay? ▾
Payment is via Stripe. I'll send you a payment link after scope confirmation. For subscriptions, billing is monthly and you can cancel anytime.
What if my page is more than 1,500 characters? ▾
For pages exceeding the Mini Audit limit, we can scope a Full Website Localization Audit covering multiple pages, or I'll recommend breaking the project into sections with clear prioritization.
