  • Tourism: specialized in audio guides scripts, blog articles, catalogues, leaflets, airlines websites, hotel websites, theme parks websites.   
  • Press and Social media content: Online brand magazines, blog and social media posts, published books, journals, and newsletters for companies and institutions.  
  • Medicine and medical equipment: publications, prospectuses, research & clinical studies, health questionnaires, managing software, instruction and operating manuals, etc.
  • Subtitling of films and short movies, TV shows and series.
