Summary

We are a small team building BaoBao, an AI memory app for everyday people. We are launching in Japan. We are looking for a native Japanese speaker to work with us long-term. Flexible hours — a few hours a week to start. What we need now Writing the Japanese text inside the app. Short strings. This is writing, not translation — we want it to read like it was written in Japanese from the start. Contacting Japanese service providers on our behalf. Mostly written Japanese. Reading over our app store page, terms of service, and privacy policy — telling us what sounds wrong to a Japanese user. What we hope you can also take on Marketing and community — helping us reach and run promotion on LINE, X, and other Japanese platforms. And whatever else comes up as we grow. Who we are looking for Native-level Japanese. Not negotiable. Can read English. Comfortable with technology — you don't need to code, but you should be able to read a pricing page or a terms-of-service page and tell us what it says. Writes short, warm, natural Japanese. Chinese and/or Korean is a strong plus. In your proposal Please include a short note in Japanese — a few sentences on how you think about writing product copy that is warm but not overly formal. We are more interested in how you think than in a polished sample. Also tell us your hourly rate and what parts you could cover.
