We work closely with customers to ensure that their communication and multilingual content is compelling, accurate and consistent.

Dot the i  writers and translators are either native in both the source and target languages (both in terms of language and culture) or are fluent in the source language and native in the target language. That is because Dot the i  is convinced that having a good grasp of both the source and target languages, their idioms and nuances, as well as a broad understanding of the involved cultures and sub-cultures, is essential to ensuring results are well-understood by the target audience, that texts don’t inadvertently offend and that they maintain the same tone and spirit as the source text.

Topics we get excited about:

Psychology

Katherine, Dot the i’s principal translator, is an avid reader of Psychology books and also enjoys taking part in workshops. Some of her favourite authors in the field are Gabor Mate, Brene Brown and Oliver James.

Blockchain Technology

Besides having researched several blockchain based companies and having written sales copy for them, Dot the i  is excited about the possibilities of this technology and  continues to follow its development and greater adoption.

Art & Design

Art & design have been a passion of Dot the i  for a long time, and she’s had the great pleasure of writing for several art institutions over the years, including Austria’s famed Kunstmeile Krems.

Innovation

Dot the i  is always excited to learn new things and eager to support creative, innovative companies bring their visions to life and to wider audiences.

LGBTQIA+ Topics

LGBTQIA+ rights, awareness, history and current events are topics that are close to Dot the i’s heart and that the company is passionate about and supports.

Brands & Websites

Dot the i  loves getting to know the spirit of a company and capturing its essence in their branding and advertising. Working on bigger projects such as a company website offers us a great opportunity to do this.

Environmentalism & Sustainable Development

Dot the i  considers environmental awareness and innovation in the field to be of the utmost importance to help ensure a sustainable future on this planet, and we are eager to contribute in any way we can.

Travelling & Hotels

Before starting her own company, Katherine created and edited content for Booking.com. Having travelled to nearby and far-flung places herself, she still enjoys discovering and researching new spots around the globe.

Advertising

We find advertising one of the most creative forms of writing. Dot the i  loves the challenge of coming up with succinct, gripping text as well as successfully translating slogans who’s wit, references and word play often can’t be literally translated. We love coming up with clever solutions!

We’d love to hear from you!
