Bom dia,

My name is Priya and I am part of the Resource Management team in Global3.

Global3 is a new company founded by industry leaders with a proven track record of creating innovative tools for localization services, including subtitling and dubbing. We leverage AI technology in our translation and dubbing processes versus the origination of content performed historically.

We're seeking talented and experienced Localization linguists across multiple language pairs to join our innovative subtitling and dubbing adaptation workflows. You will be adapting translations for various localization formats and creating lip-sync dubbing for high-quality content from major global content providers.

We believe your skills could be a valuable asset for upcoming projects, particularly in important client testing projects. Please take a few moments to review this freelance/contract opportunity and let us know if you're interested.


Responsibilities:
* Adapting dialog list translations to generate accurate dubbed audio
* Using cutting-edge tools to compose high-quality subtitles, voice dubbing for lip sync projects
* Collaborating with our creative team to deliver top-notch localized versions of events, films, and TV series
* Subtitle QC

Requirements:
* Strong media and entertainment translation and adaptation experience is a plus
* Proficiency with translation, audio, and/or post-production software
* A discerning eye for quality
* Passion for TV, film, and high-quality localized content

What is the return email? Apr 25

When you hit reply, what is the email that comes up?
If it is gmail or other free email, it's probably not legitimate.

Regards,
Dan

They look legit Apr 25

The company is also on PROZ: https://www.proz.com/business/194104-global-3

You can check their website at: https://www.global3.io/

But still, since they are a new company, be careful.

Registering a profile / business at ProZ.com does not mean that the company ' is on PROZ'. They have simply registered a profile here, and this actually means nothing as there is no Blue Board record, and the contact data aren't verified.

There is a real company 'Global3 Inc', formed in Delaware but located in California. The proof of that is not on any website of the LinkedIn type, but in this official record https://static.bizprofile.net/6/9/2/4/8/3/69248364.pdf .
(The data on Global3 Inc. was extracted from the California Secretary of State's Registry (https://bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov/search/business/) as of 3/10/2025.)

BUT ... 'the same company' on Proz declaring itself as being from India? https://www.proz.com/business/194104-global-3#:~:text=Global%203,India Sounds right, right?

As for 'their website' ... WHO EXACTLY registered the domain name 'global3.io'? Answer: 'redacted for privacy'!

I can understand a private individual wanting privacy, but why would a business want to hide its connection to 'its own' website?

Yes 'Global3 Inc' is real (as far as 'there is a recently registered business of that name' goes), but you STILL need to make sure who exactly is contacting you. Personally, I have very little time for businesses with no published contact phone number, but that's only me…

Another interesting detail regarding the '.io' part of the domain name:
https://www.nic.io/#:~:text=Search-,what%20is%20.IO%20meaning,-?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.io

Yet another start-up obsessed with 'doing everything with AI'?

If it's from Delaware, it's probably dalavera.
