I’m a Japanese native speaker based in Japan, specializing in market research and localization for international clients entering the Japanese market.
I help businesses understand what Japanese consumers actually think — not just what translation tools say. My research goes beyond surface-level data by exploring Japanese social media trends, cultural nuances, online communities, and real user behavior to provide insights that feel natural and culturally accurate.
I also have hands-on experience using international platforms, AI tools, and Web3 services, which helps me identify usability issues, localization gaps, and cultural nuances from a native Japanese perspective. Because I actively navigate both Japanese and global online spaces, I can bridge communication and user experience differences effectively.
Services I offer:
• Japanese market & consumer research
• Localization review (apps, websites, SNS, e-commerce)
• Japanese trend & competitor research
• AI content evaluation & naturalness review
• Bilingual content support (Japanese / English)
• UX and usability feedback for Japanese users
I’m detail-oriented, self-directed, and comfortable working asynchronously across time zones. I value clear communication, thoughtful research, and culturally aware localization that helps products connect naturally with Japanese users.
Let’s make your product feel truly Japanese.
