Semantix Group

What Semantix Group does

Semantix Group (legal entity Semantix International AB) is a Stockholm-headquartered multilingual language services and technology provider operating as a strategic subsidiary of the TransPerfect family of companies. The company delivers human, AI, and hybrid translation across 170-238+ languages, supported by a network of more than 7,000 translators and language specialists plus Europe's largest interpreter network handling 500,000+ interpreting tasks per year across 200 languages. Core technology centres on TransPerfect's GlobalLink translation management system, augmented by Semantix-branded platforms including MediaNEXT (cloud multimedia localisation), Copernicus (terminology and asset management), Secure MT (closed-system neural machine translation), and an App Translation SDK covering iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, Xamarin, and Unity. The company also operates the Semantix Language Hub order portal and the Semantix Interpreting App for 24/7 on-demand interpretation.

Semantix serves enterprise and large corporate buyers across multiple verticals — legal, finance, medical/life sciences, marketing, e-commerce, e-learning, and manufacturing/engineering — with documented relationships with Subaru Nordic, Marks & Spencer, NICKIS, Fjällräven, Lufthansa, and Väderstad. Its sales motion is enterprise-led, with dedicated account managers, solutions architects, and project managers; customers transact via digital price quotes, a 15-minute consultation booking flow, and self-serve customer portals. Revenue streams span professional services (translation, interpreting, digital marketing, transcreation, AI content proofreading) and recurring software (GlobalLink TMS, Copernicus, Secure MT), with pay-as-you-go unit pricing on services. The company is ISO 27001, ISO 9001, and ISO 17100 certified, and positions Secure MT as a GDPR-compliant alternative to public-domain machine translation.

The company was established circa 1971 and operates across the Nordic region plus 15+ additional countries. Direct ownership is held by TransPerfect, and Semantix retains autonomous brand identity and Nordic operational leadership while leveraging TransPerfect's global distribution and GlobalLink technology platform. Internal employee count on firmographic disclosures is 11-50, reflecting a lean core organisation that relies on a large variable translator/interpreter network rather than a high in-house headcount.
