If your specific language pair, industry, or location isn't covered yet, contact us directly at info@talksie.app or +1 212 347 6079. We'll find the right professional for you personally. Talksie's network is growing every day, and we're committed to matching every client with the right expert.
Talksie gives you direct access to independent professionals: no middlemen, no opaque pricing. You see each interpreter's or translator's rates, specializations, and background upfront, so you know exactly who you're hiring and what you'll pay. Talksie holds the payment until the job is delivered and the 48-hour review period ends, which protects both parties.
Our professionals combine language fluency with specialized knowledge across a wide range of industries, including:
Accounting & Auditing, Aerospace & Aviation, Arts & Design, Automotive Engineering, Biotechnology, Blockchain & Cryptocurrency, Cybersecurity, Data Science & Artificial Intelligence, Defense & Military, Engineering (Civil, Mechanical, Electrical), Environmental Science & Sustainability, Finance & Investment Banking, Information Technology (IT), Insurance, Legal, Luxury & Lifestyle, Manufacturing & Industrial Automation, Maritime & Shipping, Medtech & Health-Tech, Oil & Gas, Pharmaceuticals, Real Estate Development, Regulatory Compliance (FDA, GDPR), Software Development, Supply Chain & Logistics, Telecommunications, and Utilities & Energy.
This depth of specialization means you get a professional who understands not just the language, but the terminology, context, and nuances of your field.
Each interpreter and translator sets their own rate, reflecting their experience and the complexity of the work. Talksie adds a transparent 20% service fee on top of the professional's quoted rate. There are no hidden charges. The total is shown clearly before you pay. All payments are handled securely within the platform.

Talksie is for businesses that need professional language services, from a single interpreted meeting to ongoing translation work, and for freelance interpreters and translators who want to work directly with business clients.
Unlike a traditional agency, Talksie gives clients direct access to independent professionals with transparent pricing. There are no opaque markups or anonymous teams. You see exactly who you're working with and what they charge.
Interpretation is real-time: spoken language converted live during meetings, conferences, or negotiations. Translation is written: documents, contracts, and reports converted from one language to another. Talksie professionals specialize in one or both services.
