Creative & Professional Language Specialists

More than a translation agency!

Creative & Professional Language Specialists (CPLS) is much more than a translation agency. Our services extend beyond Dutch to English (and English to Dutch) translations to editing, copywriting and conference reporting. We focus on the areas of technology and innovation, with clients ranging from automotive to health and from software to hardware. Our small, professional team provides support to businesses, public authorities, research institutions and universities throughout the Netherlands, with a European and even global dimension - quality at speed.

What sets us apart?

  • We make it our business to know our clients - their markets, their customers, how they work, what their goals are, their terminology.
  • We are reliable - we deliver to agreed deadlines, in the agreed format, and we can adjust where required.
  • Speed is of the essence - we understand how important it is for you to quickly get your message to personnel, clients and the media. We aim to respond to all requests within a matter of minutes, no matter what we're currently working on.


Quality at speed is our motto

We specialise in the innovative: our clients, such as TU/e, High Tech Systems Center, Foodvalley, TNO, Inside Industry Association (Chips JU) and ITEA (Eureka), stand at the forefront of Dutch and European technological breakthroughs. Whether you need document translation from Dutch to English or a tech-savvy copywriter for conference reporting, we can find the right words for what you want to say.

Everything starts with knowing the client's business. Do you use US or UK English? What terminology do you prefer? Who is your audience? We ensure consistency across all documents in these areas and more. First, we take into account your deadline, the amount of work and the type (technical, commercial, general), then we agree on a quote. Our approach to task distribution ensures timely delivery without 'stacking' orders – so you can have your cake and eat it!

Refining AI-generated content

At CPLS, we recognise that artificial intelligence is changing the ways in which individuals and organisations work with translation and copywriting. AI tools save time, but they usually produce texts that lack precision, consistency and a human touch. We therefore offer our services to refine, edit and polish AI-generated texts before they go live. This enhances readability, ensures consistency and aligns them with your style so that you can get the benefits of AI without compromising on quality. Find out more on our editing page.
