Our Clients Love Us
In all the years Vizor and Alconost have been working together, we've never had quality problems. I feel confident they'll never let us down.
To be honest, I was very surprised at the quality of the work considering the time and cost. I had heard that the value for money of the localization services was very good, but it was actually much better than I expected. I would definitely work with Alconost again; in fact, I am recommending them to colleagues in the industry.

FAQ
LQA (Localization Quality Assurance) is a comprehensive review of translation quality, including linguistic accuracy, terminology, and style. LQT (Localization Quality Testing) specifically focuses on testing translations within the actual product environment, checking for display issues, functionality, and user experience. We offer both services and can recommend the best approach for your needs.
Yes, we specialize in validating AI translation output. We identify common AI errors like literal translations, terminology inconsistencies, cultural mistakes, and invented phrases. Our reports show exactly which segments are launch-ready and which need human refinement.
Absolutely. We provide independent quality assessment regardless of translation source - previous vendors, in-house teams, AI tools, or freelancers. Our objective evaluation helps you understand current quality levels and make informed decisions about your localization partners.
On average, it takes around 1–3 business days and about 2–4 hours in total for the review, rebuttal, and final scoring stages. However, the timeline may vary on a case-by-case basis. We can accommodate urgent requests.
You receive a detailed report including: issue categorization by severity (critical, major, minor), specific examples with corrections, statistical quality metrics, root cause analysis, and an actionable improvement plan. For LQT, we also provide annotated screenshots and can log issues directly in your tracking system.
