Founded in 2018, but we've always been there.
We have been working in translation for more than a decade. However, the idea of Echo-Alpha is quite recent. In 2016, we began a quest to build a team of graders for the American Translators Association, and the task was exciting yet challenging.
Despite the huge number of translators on the web, finding "quality" isn't easy. By "quality" we don't only refer to the accuracy of translation and word selection, but also to little details like proper punctuation or 'hamza' placement.
Inspired by ATA grading guidelines as well as ISO-17100, we come up with our quality standards.
Here at Echo-Alpha, we are seeking to establish a network of professional translators who share our quality standards.
