Use Konvert to prevent mistakes in translation

I lived outside the US for several years and noticed that whenever a new business wanted to try to impress customers it would use English words in its signage and published material. The idea was fine, but the execution often fell short of perfection.

I recall walking down a sidewalk and stopping in front of the windows of a store behind which puppies and kittens played. As I looked around for the name of the store I spotted an elaborate and expensive sign indicating that his was “Hakeem's PIT Shop.” That was an unfortunate and expensive typo!

While mistakes like this will happen in translation, Konvert is designed to minimize their effects. Konvert’s text translation platform is powered by cutting edge AI that increases accuracy and understandability. It also includes side-by-side original language and target language views so that when someone sees your text and spots a typo, you can take steps to fix it and instantly publish it right from Konvert. No need to take down expensive signage or gather up incorrect materials. Changes are immediately distributed to end users.

Mistakes happen, and Konvert happens to help you fix them (credit to my local remediation company’s radio ad for the pithy way of putting that!). Stop hesitating about translation, and get started today with Konvert. The newcomers to your part of the country are waiting for you.
