Our continuous localization process
This is an example of how our localization projects work in terms of workflow in Crowdin:
Write to us at info@alconost.com or submit a preliminary order form along with links to your cloud project and the product.
The PM will help compile a glossary, calculate pricing, monitor deadlines, and assist you throughout the project.
The PM assembles a project team of the best-suited linguists.
Communication happens on the cloud platform; translation memory and a glossary ensure translation consistency.
Proofreading is done by an independent translator who checks for any possible errors and typos and ensures translation accuracy.
This happens after the localized strings have been downloaded from the localization platform; or directly on the platform using automatic compilation via a CLI (command line interface).
Localization QA ensures that the localized strings display correctly.
Corrections are made immediately or reported directly to developers in the bug tracker.

FAQ
What languages do you translate into?
We translate into more than 100 languages, including the most popular (English, Chinese, Japanese, German, French, Spanish), and rarer ones, and even dialects. You can estimate the cost of your project by requesting a quote.
We can find a translator in almost any language that the client needs, depending on his product and goals. Sometimes localization into niche languages can offer better prospects than localization into mainstream languages.
In case some rare language is not on the list, we can help with searching and recruiting linguists.
What file formats do you work with?
We can work with any file type and suggest customized integrations for your convenience.
Here are the most popular file formats for our projects:
Android .xml, iOS .strings, .stringsdict, Windows .resx, .po, .pot, .php, .json, .ini, .csv, .js, .plist, .xlf, .xliff, .stf, .dita, .ditamap, .toml, .gotext.json, .arb, .vdf, .wxl, .nsh, .properties, .dtd, .ts, .rc, .resw, .resjson, .yml, .htm, .html, .xhtml, .haml, .txt, .md, .xht, .idml, .docx, .svg, .pdf, .xaml, .srt, .vtt, .sbv, .mif, .idml, .rtf, .ppt, .odt, .ods, .odg, .odp, .wiki, .flsnp, .flpgl, .fltoc, .md, .xht.

How does Nitro, online human translation platform, work?
Although Nitro is a self-service platform, it utilizes the resources of professional native-speaking linguists and not the machine translation, that’s why it is called human translation platform.
Nitro helps to get the translation faster since fewer people are involved in your project, and possible communication complications are automatically eliminated by this. But still, you can contact the translator of your text directly via comments, if necessary.
Nitro is suitable for the quick translation of the relatively short texts (~ up to 10k symbols) for 70+ languages, and professional proofreading is also available.
To remain the translation within the correct context, Nitro supports the use of glossaries. You can create one yourself, or ask us to import a glossary that you already have via online-chat. To learn more about Nitro, you can check this link. You can try Nitro and place your translation order here.
Do you perform localization testing?
Our localization specialist can tests the build on the relevant local version of the OS. During linguistic testing, the tester takes screenshots of problem areas (untranslated text, strings that go off screen, wrong encoding or text direction, wrong context) and works with the developer to make changes to the resource files. Our linguistic testing service is available to you even if you’ve already translated your app yourself or through an outside provider.
Do you help localize audio and video?
Alconost Video creates videos for the App Store and Google Play, teasers, trailers, and explainers, but that’s not all we do. Our team can also localize video and audio content.
