What's your next move?

You do not need to decide before contacting us. Tell us what you want to build, fix, or grow in Japan, and we will recommend the smallest service that fits the job.

A website link, draft, source files, or existing copy is enough to start. If available, share any brand guidelines or marketing materials plus basic context about your business and target customers. We will ask if anything else is needed.

Yes. You can start with a safety check, one page, one asset, or a focused support task. There is no requirement to begin with a full-site project.

No. We can work from English source material only, review Japanese that already exists, or compare both when the project calls for it.

Yes. Many projects begin after launch, when a company wants to improve trust, search visibility, conversion, consistency, or ongoing marketing execution in Japan.

Yes. You do not need to diagnose the problem first. We can review what is already there, identify the main friction points, and recommend the most useful next step.

The final price depends on scope, volume, complexity, format, research needs, and any implementation requirements. Published starting prices apply to standard scope, and we confirm the price before work begins.

If you cancel after payment but before work has begun, 80% of the amount paid for that service or billing period will be refunded. Once work has begun, the payment is non-refundable, except where required by applicable law.

A standard Market-Ready Page usually takes around 2–5 business days, while a Japan Safety Check of up to three standard pages is typically 1–3 business days. Larger or more complex projects are scheduled based on scope and confirmed with the quote.

Up to two revision rounds are included at no extra charge as long as the original source and agreed scope have not changed. Changes to the source, new requirements, or additional revision rounds may be quoted separately.

No. Most services are available as one-off projects. Ongoing Website Care and Local Marketing Partner are available when you need recurring support. For other one-off Japan-side needs, contact us and we’ll confirm the best way to help.

Both. We can localize and rebuild existing global content for Japan, or create original Japanese marketing content from scratch when a Japan-specific approach makes more sense.

We can support websites, landing pages, marketplaces, email and newsletters, SEO/AEO articles, social media posts, ad copy, brochures, manuals, sales materials, FAQs, help content, and other customer-facing marketing assets.

Yes. We can review existing Japanese regardless of how it was created. Depending on what you need, that can range from a basic safety check to a source-based rewrite designed to make the content market-ready.

Yes. We may use AI or machine translation as part of the workflow, but raw output is never treated as the final product. A native Japanese specialist reviews and substantially rewrites it where needed, with marketing, search intent, brand voice, trust, and conversion in mind.

Yes. We treat client materials as confidential and can sign an NDA where required. Materials are used only as needed to deliver the agreed work and are handled in line with our Privacy Policy and any project-specific confidentiality terms.

Yes. A native Japanese specialist reviews the work with marketing, customer experience, and local context in mind, not grammar alone.

A native Japanese lead reviewer is responsible for final QA and consistency. Where the project includes implementation or in-context review, we also check the live Japanese experience before sign-off.

As much as needed to make the message work in Japan without changing the underlying facts or offer. We may restructure wording, hooks, CTAs, sentence order, search terms, or trust signals, but material changes to claims or business terms are not made without approval.

Yes, when the project requires it. We may review competitors, terminology, search behavior, customer expectations, and market conventions before rewriting. The depth of research depends on the service and scope.

Yes, where SEO/AEO is relevant to the page. We can consider Japanese search intent, headings, metadata, keyword usage, and how people actually search in Japan. Broader SEO/AEO and keyword research can also be handled as a separate support task.

Yes, but we do not simply translate keywords word for word. We can review your existing keyword and metadata strategy against Japanese search language and rebuild it around terms that make sense for the local market.

We keep the same lead reviewer across the account and work from your existing brand references, terminology, and prior localization decisions. For ongoing clients, those decisions carry forward so each new asset starts from established context instead of from zero.

Yes. We can explain the reasoning behind meaningful localization and marketing decisions, especially major changes to CTAs, search terms, trust-sensitive wording, or message structure. Routine proofreading changes are usually kept simple so the review does not become unnecessarily heavy.

Yes. We can review live Japanese pages or campaigns, identify the main issues, and provide prioritized changes. Where needed, a final in-context QA can also be performed after your team implements the updates.

Yes. We do not rewrite good Japanese just for the sake of rewriting it. Strong existing copy can stay in place while we focus on issues that materially affect accuracy, clarity, trust, consistency, search intent, or conversion.

Yes, where included in the agreed scope. A final in-context QA can catch broken copy, missing text, layout interference, inconsistent terminology, and other issues that may only appear after implementation.

Our standard delivery is Word, Excel, or another agreed file format so your team keeps control of implementation. Direct CMS editing can be arranged when needed, but it is not the default workflow.

Yes, for content editing where the platform, permissions, and project scope allow it. To reduce implementation risk, our standard workflow is to deliver the final content in Word or Excel for your team to publish. Coding, structural changes, or web development are not part of standard CMS editing.

Tell us as soon as possible. Small changes may be easy to absorb, but new or revised source content can affect the timeline, scope, and price. Source changes are separate from the two included revision rounds.

You can send future updates as a new project, or use Ongoing Website Care or Local Marketing Partner support for recurring changes. With ongoing support, we keep the established brand voice, terminology, and localization context across updates.

Yes. Our services can be used independently, and we can also tailor one-off Japan-side support around needs that fall outside our listed services. Contact us and we’ll confirm the best-fit scope.

Yes. A focused one-off task is completely fine. If the issue is better handled through another service or requires a different specialist, we will tell you before the work begins.

Yes. We can work as the Japan-side specialist alongside your in-house team, agency, translator, developer, or other partners. You do not need to replace an existing setup to use Japalize.

No. Project communication can be handled in English, and we can explain the reasoning behind important Japanese-language and marketing decisions so your team can review them without needing native-level Japanese.

Japalize focuses on localization and Japan-side marketing support. We do not provide software or website functionality testing, debugging, programming, or web/app development. Partner sourcing and outreach do not include direct customer acquisition, sales closing, or guaranteed distribution or commercial agreements. Legal, tax, and regulated professional advice are also outside our scope. If a project touches an area outside our standard services, we will clarify that before work begins.
