In Japanese-English and English-Japanese translation, AI can achieve up to 97% accuracy when applied to suitable fields or well-structured source texts. However, in real-world professional translation, accuracy often falls below 90%.
With NAIway’s “AI Translation + Expert Review”, we refine AI-generated translations (mainly for Japanese-English and English-Japanese—other languages available upon request) by:
・Eliminating AI-specific errors to deliver high-quality translations with faster turnaround times and lower costs, surpassing conventional translation standards.
・Having experienced translators thoroughly review the output against the original text.

Purpose of Use
"I want to introduce my product to Japan with a compelling description that resonates with the Japanese audience and aligns with their culture."
AI translation excels at producing accurate translations. However, it does not always capture engaging, culturally relevant, or up-to-date Japanese expressions.
To address this, our skilled Japanese translators can localize the text, ensuring it resonates with the target audience. (Additional fees may apply.)
A massive volume of documents to translate—but limited budget and time.
Negotiating with a Japanese company and suddenly need a large volume of translations for service descriptions and company history.
We requested a quote from a local translation company—only to receive an outrageous price.
That’s where NAIway come in. NAIway offered faster turnaround times and cost-effective solutions to meet our needs.

I want to gain an accurate understanding of the company profiles of several Japanese firms that are potential candidates for a new business partnership.
By using AI translation, it is possible to understand the company profiles without a bilingual review by a human translator.
However, when it comes to business partnerships, an accurate understanding of the company's industry, financial status, and other critical details is essential. At times, it may be necessary to ask questions or engage in discussions with the target company. In such cases, conducting negotiations in their native language (Japanese) provides a sense of trust and reassurance.
That trust can be achieved at approximately 50% of the standard translation cost.

High-Level AI Translation Correction
AI translation technology has evolved dramatically. Compared to three or five years ago, the improvements are truly astonishing.
However, as mentioned earlier, no matter how advanced AI translation becomes, it still falls short of perfection. If we consider the work of the most skilled human translators followed by native proofreading to be 100% accurate, AI translations currently reach about 97% completion at best.
The remaining 3% gap is where AI—despite its neural network foundation—struggles. This final step requires human intuition, contextual understanding, and nuanced decision-making that AI simply cannot replicate.
At NAIway Translation Services, we focus exclusively on refining this critical 3%. AI-generated translations often contain subtle yet impactful misinterpretations, assumptions, and misunderstandings. Our specialized service detects and corrects these hidden pitfalls, ensuring highly accurate translations with fast turnaround times and cost-effective pricing—bridging the gap between AI efficiency and human precision.
