We aim to be the best at what we do. That's why we have been specializing in translations for e-learning for more than 10 years. In addition to standard tools like Articulate Storyline or Rise or Adobe Captivate, we support (almost) every authoring tool and offer a tailored all-round e-learning localization service including – but not limited to – translation, professional voice recording, and video editing.

The translation work is done in the respective target countries by our long-term translation partners, who are experts in their local languages. As a customer, our project management team will be your central point of contact.

From our headquarters in Boeblingen, we serve our customers in the German-speaking countries of Germany, Switzerland and Austria and in Europe. Our customers in the USA have contact persons in Texas and Virginia. In accordance with the EN ISO 17100 quality standard for translation services all translations are proofread by a dedicated quality assurance team.

For clients looking for a budget-friendly option for projects with limited visibility, we offer different variants of machine translation with post-editing as well as text-to-speech dubbing.

We look forward to hearing from you!

What do you like best? That there is almost never a "No", they always try to make it possible. They even did non-translation tasks for us.
What do you dislike? You never visited our office, you are welcome any time. We and other teams in our company are working with Smartspokes since 2019.

What do you like best? The clear communication style and competitive service. Both are very important factors for us to decide when choosing partners.
What do you dislike? The ability to possibly scale to more projects. Would be nice to see them grow more in the near future.

What do you like best? SMARTSPOKES knows very well what we need by now. The quotation, order and delivery process is as easy as pie. Deadlines are consistently met and usually even ahead of schedule. I love, that they work with the same tools. This saves me so much time. The translation quality is the cherry on the cake! We're in Switzerland, where french or italian is slightly different then in Italy or France. Our employees in Ticino and Romandie are most impressed by the translations from SMARTSPOKES. By far.
What do you dislike? I dislike, that I cannot work more with SMARTSPOKES. But this has only to do with the budget that I have, or don't have, at my disposal.
