AI-Era Marketing in Japan

Japanese customers increasingly find products through AI assistants and AI-powered search instead of a list of links. We make sure your brand is the one they recommend, and we use AI to plan, create and optimize campaigns faster, with native Japanese speakers refining every word.

  • AI search visibility (GEO) in Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity
  • Japanese SEO structured for both search engines and AI answers
  • AI-assisted Japanese content, refined by native speakers
  • AI-driven ad targeting and creative testing on Google, Yahoo! JAPAN and LINE

Business Development

Business Development

Entering the Japanese market takes thorough preparation and a real understanding of how Japanese business society works and the codes by which deals are made. JapTrans gives you that knowledge and the smoothest possible access to the Japanese business world.

Most small and mid-sized Japanese companies have no English-speaking staff, so reaching them without a translator or a well-connected contact is hard. Translation software can handle single words or short sentences, but a first approach to a potential partner is exactly where it fails. Japanese business people appreciate a foreign company that makes the effort to address them properly, in their own language.

Even after business is flowing, one misunderstanding can cost trust, and in Japan lost trust quickly becomes lost business.

How we help

  • Market research in the fields relevant to your business
  • Finding potential customers and partners
  • First contact
  • Negotiations
  • Ongoing support for existing relationships

We stay with you all the way to a working business relationship, and beyond.

Translation

With almost 20 years of Japanese translation experience, JapTrans offers fast, reliable translation for anything from a full website or a technical document to a short email.

A literal translation from English or Hebrew into Japanese rarely carries the full meaning of the original. To get your message across, the text has to be rewritten in natural Japanese that fits the culture.

We work only with professional translators who are native speakers of the source and target languages, at a fair price.

Don't get lost in translation.
