A translation agency with real people behind the words
SATZGEWINN is not an anonymous translation platform. We are a close-knit team of language professionals with a passion for expression and intercultural communication.
We combine linguistic expertise with subject-matter knowledge to create more than just translations. We create texts that are clear, convincing and appropriate for their intended audience.
Our team includes experienced translators, interpreters and editors with academic qualifications. They live and work in different countries and translate into their respective native languages.
Every project is personally coordinated. We review your documents, clarify the requirements and select the language specialist who is best suited to your subject area and target audience.
Certified translations – legally valid and linguistically precise
Authorities, courts, universities and employers often require certified translations of official documents. SATZGEWINN provides certified translations of documents such as:
✓ University diplomas and school reports
✓ Professional qualifications and certificates
✓ Legal contracts and powers of attorney
✓ Medical reports and insurance documents
✓ Certificates of good conduct
✓ Official forms and applications
Each certified translation is completed by a translator who has been sworn, authorised or publicly appointed by a German court for the relevant language combination. The translation is issued with a certification statement, stamp and signature where required.
Interpreting – live communication without misunderstandings
Interpreting is more than simply switching between languages. It is about ensuring that people understand one another in real time.
Our interpreters support business negotiations, corporate events, international conferences, meetings, legal appointments, court hearings and private occasions.
Depending on the situation, we provide consecutive or simultaneous interpreting. Our interpreters work on site or remotely and are prepared, discreet and precise.
Creative writing – where language becomes strategy
Language is not only a tool for transferring information. It is also a medium for emotion, persuasion and identity.
SATZGEWINN supports companies, brands and individuals with creative texts in several languages. We write and adapt:
✓ Advertising texts and slogans
✓ Product descriptions and brochures
✓ Social-media posts
✓ Storytelling content
✓ Campaign texts
✓ Corporate and promotional copy
Our creative specialists help you find the voice that suits your brand and your target market.
Editing and proofreading – because the fine details matter
Even the best text benefits from a second pair of eyes. Our editors review original texts and translations carefully and make sure that the final version says exactly what it should say.
We check spelling, grammar, punctuation, terminology, style, structure, formatting and tone of voice. The text is adapted to its intended audience and purpose without losing its individual character.
Specialised translations for every industry
Excellent language skills alone are not enough for a high-quality specialist translation. A legal document requires different knowledge from a technical manual, a medical report or a marketing campaign.
Our translators therefore specialise in particular industries and subject areas. They understand the terminology, conventions and communication requirements of your field.
✓ Technology, engineering and IT
✓ Medicine and pharmaceuticals
✓ Business and finance
✓ Science and research
✓ E-commerce and software
✓ Tourism and culture
✓ Cosmetics, fashion and lifestyle
✓ Public-sector documents
Language combinations and subject areas
Our translation agency works with a wide variety of language pairs. The most frequently requested combinations include:
German ↔ French
German ↔ Spanish
German ↔ Italian
German ↔ Dutch
German ↔ Portuguese
German ↔ Russian
German ↔ Chinese
German ↔ Japanese
German ↔ Turkish
Other language combinations on request
Native speakers and specialist knowledge
Our translators translate exclusively into their native language. This preserves linguistic nuances, idiomatic expressions and cultural conventions.
Many of our language specialists live in the country where their target language is spoken. They are familiar with current language developments, cultural expectations and the terminology used in their specialist field.
A translator working on a technical, legal, medical or marketing text must understand more than the individual words. The subject, purpose, target group and cultural context must all be taken into account.
