English to Croatian Translator | Copywriter | SaaS | Medical | iGaming

🌐 English to Croatian translator, proofreader, copywriter and localization specialist for brands that want to connect with Croatian-speaking audiences. You've put serious work into your content. The messaging is clear, the copy is sharp, and everything works in English. Then it needs to reach Croatian users and something shifts. Not drastically, but enough. The tone feels slightly off. The phrasing sounds translated. And that small gap between "good enough" and "this was written for me" is exactly where you lose people. AI made it faster, not better. It still can't think like a native speaker, catch the idiom that doesn't transfer. Or rewrite the sentence that's technically correct but sounds like something no Croatian person would ever say. And that's where I come in. I'm a native Croatian speaker with an MA in English and Italian language and literature. In 15+ years of translation, proofreading, copywriting and localization I've worked on SaaS platforms, websites, mobile apps, iGaming, medical documents, e-commerce and marketing campaigns for international brands. Here's what you get: → CROATIAN TRANSLATION English to Croatian and Croatian to English, for marketing, SaaS, e-commerce, iGaming and more. → LOCALIZATION Your content adapted to resonate with Croatian audiences. Tone, intent and cultural nuances intact, not just words swapped. → COPYWRITING Websites, ads, email campaigns and marketing materials written directly in Croatian or English, not translated into them. → AI and MACHINE TRANSLATION POST-EDITING Raw AI and machine-translated output polished into publish-ready content that sounds human. → PROOFREADING AND EDITING A final pass for accuracy, consistency and tone before anything goes live. Every project gets the same level of attention, whether it's two sentences or two hundred pages. But don't just take my word for it. Here's what my clients say: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"Mara has been a great help with launching our Babysits platform in Croatia. She's very competent and professional in what she does.
