How it works
From your brief to delivered files.
You send the brief
Audience, message and the source material you already have. We ask only what the piece needs.
We direct and produce
Script, voice or on-screen talent, edit and versions, checked against your brief before anything reaches you.
You receive the files
Delivered privately in the formats your channels need, with captions and every language version agreed.
What you can hold us to
Checked before it reaches your teams.
Standards we apply to every piece, and the commitments we make before you send anything.
- Know how it’s made
We tell you whether each piece uses an AI voice or a human one.
- Reviewed before delivery
Nothing reaches your teams until you approve it.
- Confidential from the start
We agree confidentiality, access to materials and private delivery with you before we start.
Delivery standards
- Consistent loudness

Questions
Before you get in touch.
Is English enough in East Africa?
Not for all frontline staff.
Is the voice a real person?
Real voice talent is available in every language and accent. Directed AI voices are available for many languages and are always disclosed to you.
Can you review a translation we already have?
Yes. A native speaker can check an existing script for terms, tone and fit before anything is recorded.
