Case study
Marketing localization across 500 assets and many markets.
A brand needed 500 marketing assets localized across several languages without the brand voice drifting from one market to the next.
500 marketing assets - Japanese, Chinese, Hindi, Italian, and more - Brand voice consistency across markets
Project overview
What landed, and what made it hard.

Why this mattered
Outcome before process.
Marketing localization is brand work: the copy has to read like the brand in every language, not like a literal translation of the source.
The problem to solve
Why the work was difficult, and what MoniSa changed in-flight.
Across 500 assets and many languages, brand voice drifts easily, and one off-tone market can break the consistency a campaign depends on.
The challenge
The problem to solve
Marketing copy also has to adapt rather than translate, since a line that lands in one language can fall flat word-for-word in another.
Operating response
What MoniSa changed
MoniSa localized each asset for brand voice rather than literal meaning, keeping tone consistent across every target market.
- Brand voice first Each asset was adapted to read like the brand in its language, not as a literal rendering.
- Cross-market consistency Tone and messaging were held consistent so every market matched the same brand.
- Adaptation over translation Lines that would fall flat word-for-word were reworked to land in each language.
Results
Measured outcomes from this engagement.
500 marketing assets were localized across several languages, with brand voice held consistent across every target market.
| Volume | 500 marketing assets |
|---|---|
| Languages | Japanese, Chinese, Hindi, Italian, and more |
| Focus | Brand voice consistency across markets |
| Quality | Independently reviewed |
Selection logic
What protected the result.
The selection came down to whether MoniSa could source and review the work at standard, and whether that would hold across the full run.
Why the fit was real
Why the fit was real
Marketing localization rewards adaptation and brand-voice discipline across markets, not literal translation.
What decided the result
What decided the result
Adapting for brand voice rather than translating word-for-word is what kept the campaign consistent across markets.
What buyers can reuse
What buyers can reuse
- Marketing localization is brand work: the copy has to read like the brand in every language.
- Adapting for tone rather than translating literally kept 500 assets consistent across markets.
- The evidence keeps the client details confidential and attributes the metrics only to this engagement.

Multilingual LLM output evaluation
The challenge. A global technology company needed human evaluators to judge LLM output across 14 languages.
What we did. MoniSa calibrated evaluators first, then ran a multidimensional rating framework with continuous monitoring.
The result. 1,000+ hours of evaluation across 14 languages, delivered by evaluators calibrated before production.
Cross-lingual similarity evaluation
Problem. A global AI research lab needed similarity evaluation for Santali and Oriya paired with Hindi, where trained evaluators are scarce.
Action. MoniSa deployed validated native linguists, shared feedback before production, and resolved QA the same day.
Result. 5,000+ prompts evaluated across two rare pairs, accepted through the agreed review path.
Visual search image data
Problem. A computer-vision team needed shelf and storefront imagery with enough real-world variance to train models that generalize.
Action. MoniSa collected across multiple locations, captured lighting and configuration variance deliberately, and organized by category on delivery.
Result. 10,000 supermarket and 5,000 storefront images, structured for direct pipeline ingestion.

The answers most briefs open by asking for.
Buyers rarely start with who we are. They start with a list of fields to fill. Here are ours, so the first email can be about the work instead.
- Languages and locales
- 300+ languages and 4,500+ dialects, quoted per locale rather than per language — because the dialect decides whether a dataset is usable, whether a market accepts a release, and which specialist the work goes to.
- Specialist network
- 110,000+ verified language specialists — linguists, annotators, and reviewers — plus voice talent and subtitlers, matched to the language, domain and task before assignment.
- Capacity and mobilisation
- Named availability confirmed per pair before scoping. Coverage is reported as staffed today or needing a recruitment window, in writing, before a launch date or release window is agreed.
- Sourcing constraints
- Specialists can be sourced against geographic, residency, locale and demographic requirements — including native-only, in-country, and speaker-diversity quotas where a data programme demands them.
- Deliverables and specs
- Work is delivered to the receiving specification: structured formats and schemas for data and annotation work, and timed-text, audio and platform conformance for media — subtitle reading speed, line limits, cue timing, channel and sample-rate requirements included.
- Comparable work
- 62 documented case studies stating the scope, the constraint that made it difficult, and the measured result — across AI data programmes, partner overflow, and media releases. 2,000+ AI projects delivered and 1,000+ brands served since 2015.
- Certifications
- ISO 9001:2015 quality management, ISO 27001:2022 information security, and ISO 17100 translation services — scoped to translation specifically, and stated that way rather than implied across every line.
- Commercial basis
- Quoted in the unit the work is measured in — per word, per audio hour, per approved hour, per finished minute, per batch, per item — with what the unit includes stated alongside it, whether the quote is for you or for a client you quote onward.
Need this against your own template? Convert your scope between units and check the deadline, then send the brief with your language list, content type, volume and deadline, and the acceptance criteria you will judge the output against — those four decide feasibility, and the reply addresses them directly.
