After 15 years in the translation industry, our founder Micaela Novas saw the same frustrations everywhere: rotating translators who didn't know the brand, project managers who disappeared after handoff, and clients left managing translation problems instead of focusing on their day jobs. She started The Translation Team in 2014 to offer customers a hands-on service that would feel like a part of their team. This means that when you work with The Translation Team, the same translators work on your projects year after year, learning how you communicate and what matters to you. Your dedicated project manager anticipates problems, keeps you in the loop, and looks for ways to make your life easier.

Our mission is to help US-based companies drive reach and growth with multicultural audiences through our human-led, technology-driven translation services. Our key services include translation, transcreation, technology and AI implementations, website and app localization, accessibility services, and data anonymization. 

We handle all languages spoken in the United States, but here's what really matters: we understand that translation isn't about swapping words between languages. It's about connecting with real people in a way that feels natural, respectful, and true to your brand.
We love language and culture, but we’re technologists too: we use technology when it makes sense to handle repetitive work efficiently, speed things up, and keep costs down. But humans are always in charge, especially where the work requires judgment or creativity. We're honest about timelines, transparent about our process (including when and how we use AI), and committed to helping you communicate authentically with the people you serve.

As multicultural and multilingual people ourselves, we bring the lived experience of moving between languages and cultures to your project. We’re also a women-owned business. Our clients describe us as knowledgeable, reliable, and authentic.
