A 147,916-word Arabic sprint in 20 days.
A global ride-hailing platform needed almost 150,000 words of Arabic content translated in 20 days, delivered in batches so the work could start landing before the full set was done.

- 147,916 words in 20 days
A global ride-hailing platform needed almost 150,000 words of Arabic content translated inside a 20-day window.
A single-language sprint of this size lives or dies on throughput: the volume has to move fast without the quality sliding under deadline pressure.
The problem to solve
Pushing 147,916 words through in 20 days means sourcing enough Arabic linguists to hold pace without handing the same content to translators who work inconsistently.
Batched delivery raises the bar further, since each batch has to be release-ready on its own rather than waiting for a single final hand-off.
What MoniSa changed
MoniSa ran the volume as a batched Arabic sprint, sourcing for throughput while keeping review on every batch before it shipped.
Throughput sourcing
Enough Arabic linguists were assigned to hold the daily pace the 20-day window required.
Batched delivery
Work shipped in batches so content started landing before the full set was complete.
Review under pace
Each batch was reviewed before delivery, so speed did not come at the cost of quality.
Results
Measured outcomes from this engagement.
147,916 words of Arabic content were delivered in batches across 20 days under project-scoped review, with content landing in stages rather than one final hand-off.

What supported the result
Why the fit was real
A single-language sprint at this volume needs bench depth to source for throughput without losing review discipline.
What decided the result
Batched delivery with per-batch review is what kept a fast sprint from trading quality for speed.
What buyers can reuse
- A high-volume single-language sprint is a throughput problem solved by bench depth, not overtime.
- Batched delivery let content land in stages instead of waiting for one deadline.
- The evidence keeps the client details confidential and attributes the metrics only to this engagement.

Scripture localization from zero
The challenge. A scripture program needed 22+ languages, including 15+ that had never been professionally localized.
What we did. MoniSa built terminology foundations first, then translated against them across a multi-phase program.
The result. Reusable terminology and localized scripture across 22+ languages, several with no prior localization.

Continuous e-commerce localization
Problem. An online retail platform auto-reassigned idle files, so any coverage gap risked losing work mid-stream.
Action. MoniSa ran a follow-the-sun model with steady per-language teams across Dutch, French, and Tamil.
Result. 500,000 words across three languages over three and a half years, without losing files to reassignment.

E-learning voiceover at scale
Problem. An e-learning program needed long-form training content voiced naturally across 10 Indian languages.
Action. MoniSa voiced the content per language with natural pacing and consistent delivery across hours of material.
Result. 100 hours of training content made accessible across 10 Indian languages, with scope expanding on positive feedback.
