Arabic localisation studio
Arabic that reads like it started here.
We rewrite websites, apps, video and courses in Arabic, rebuild the page to read right to left, and hand back the design as you drew it.

Nothing here was flipped. It was rebuilt.
The job in one picture. The English page and its Arabic twin, the layout reversed, the progress bar running the other way, every element where it belongs.

03 What changes
Designs built for Arabic, not flipped into it
Arabic changes more than the words. Margins swap sides, images move, tables reverse and line lengths shift. We rebuild the layout so the Arabic version is as carefully set as the English.
- Rebuilt in the source file, never by a plugin
- Correctly shaped Arabic type, no broken letters
- Checked by native speakers before delivery
04 Your Arabic team
Your Arabic department, without hiring one
Companies that ship every month keep the same Arabic team on standby. The same linguists, your glossary, and people who already know the product.
The same team every release
A named contact and the same linguists each time, so your glossary and tone keep growing with every job.
Turnarounds measured in days
Text and updates come back in your own tools and formats, at the speed you release.
Pricing that stays boring
Quoted per project within one working day, stable across the year, so Arabic never surprises the budget.
05 One language, many markets
Standard Arabic, plus the voice your market expects
There is one Arabic in books and many in markets. We write Modern Standard Arabic when you are addressing every Arab market, and we write in dialect when one market wants a voice of its own. We will tell you when that matters and when it does not.
The same question, three markets. Choosing the right one is part of the job.
Send the source
Share files, a build or a link. We quote on the real scope within one working day.
We localise
Native linguists translate and adapt while engineers handle the right-to-left build.
QA in context
We check the result where users will see it: the live page, the build, the player, the PDF.
You ship
Delivery in your own format, with a named contact and revisions included.
06 Questions
What every new client asks first
Do you provide certified translations?
No. This studio does localisation and creative work only. For certified document translations accepted by UK authorities, use our sister company Arabic Translation UK.
Which Arabic do you write?
Modern Standard Arabic by default, because every Arab market reads it. When a project needs to feel local we adapt to Gulf, Egyptian, Levantine and other regional voices, and we tell you when that is worth doing.
How is pricing calculated?
Per project: words for text, minutes for video and voiceover, screens for courses, pages for layout work. You get one fixed quote before we start, usually within one working day.
Can you work under NDA?
Yes, as standard. NDAs are signed before we see a file, and confidential product material stays confidential.
Can you build a course rather than localise one?
Yes. Send a brief and source material and we script, record and build the course in Arabic from the start, delivered as a tested SCORM or xAPI package.
Where are you based?
Cardiff, United Kingdom, as part of the Lingo Service group, working with clients worldwide.
