I will proofread your ai translated japanese business documents
Japanese Native Proofreader for Business and Official Documents
About this Gig
Did you translate your Japanese with ChatGPT, DeepL or Google Translate?
AI translation is fast, but Japanese readers often notice text that is too literal, too casual, or simply unnatural. In business, that can cost you trust.
About Me
I'm a native Japanese speaker based in Fukushima, Japan. I have 4 years of experience preparing reports, budgets and audit documents for public facilities, including submissions to the local government. I write and check business Japanese every day.
What I Do
- Fix unnatural expressions and awkward phrasing
- Correct grammar, spelling and punctuation
- Adjust politeness (keigo) for business use
- Improve clarity and tone for Japanese readers
- Check for mistranslations if you send the original text
Best For
Business emails, proposals, reports, presentations, product descriptions and marketing copy.
