Our strengths
Top-notch quality from highly-skilled professionals
At JVTA, we train visual media translators into highly-skilled linguistic professionals who can render your vision into subtitles and voiceovers. We can handle large-volume projects with short turnaround times by utilizing our comprehensive toolbox of resources. Our full-time in-house visual media translation project managers guarantee top-notch quality.
Development and implementation of AI subtitle translation tool “Subit!”
We utilized our years of subtitling expertise to develop and implement Subit!, an AI subtitle translation tool that automatically generates Japanese subtitles for videos with English audio. It is the first of its kind in Japan. By combining this with post-editing by professional translators, we can achieve quick turnaround and reductions in cost.
Robust information security system
We have acquired ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification, the international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). We ensure thorough information security management to protect the valuable data entrusted to us by our clients. This includes the signing of nondisclosure agreements with all translators and ongoing staff training.
