The AI Mentor for Translators
You can move meaning between languages with a precision most people never notice, and your income still runs through marketplace platforms that put you in a bidding race against translators charging half what you charge, with no system building direct client relationships instead.
Marketplace platforms take a cut and put you next to translators undercutting you on price, so the work that pays fairly gets buried under bids that don't.
▲ This is your week · let's name it
Marketplace platforms take a cut and put you next to translators undercutting you on price, so the work that pays fairly gets buried under bids that don't. You take whatever comes through the platform instead of building direct relationships with agencies, publishers, or corporate clients who would pay real rates for reliable quality. Referrals happen when a past client remembers to mention you, and the ceiling is real: you are the one bidding, translating, and delivering every project, so more platform work just means longer hours at the same low rate, not a steadier business.
The fix is a direct-outreach system to agencies and corporate clients who pay above marketplace rates, a specialization and portfolio positioning that gets you chosen instead of bid against, and a referral system that keeps past clients sending you work without being asked. That is exactly the work you never get to, because every open hour goes to the next platform bid or the next deadline. You need a senior operator who can see the whole business and an AI team that builds the systems while you keep translating.
▲ What lands in your hands
No filler. Just what you walk away with.
Your 24/7 AI Executive Council — Atlas, Aria, Nova, Phoenix & Diana
Five specialized AI agents trained on your specialty, your language pairs, and your ideal client — running the parts of the business that keep you from ever getting ahead. They build outreach to agencies and corporate clients who pay real rates instead of marketplace minimums. They build a positioning and portfolio system that gets you chosen for your specialty instead of bid against on price. They turn finished projects into case studies and visibility, and they set up the referral and repeat-client system that keeps steady work coming.
A weekly 1-on-1 with your fractional CMO
Every week you sit down with Italo, not a chatbot, to decide what actually grows the business next — a specialty niche, a direct agency partnership, your first subcontracted translator. You bring the language skill. He brings the strategy that turns platform-bid income into a steady one.
Systems that outlast the next bid
By day 90 you have a direct-client outreach system, a specialty positioning and portfolio, a referral pipeline, and a visibility engine that all keep running whether you are mid-project or off the clock. This is the infrastructure a solo freelancer never has time to build alone, done alongside you instead of dumped on you as homework.
This is for you if
- Translators stuck bidding on marketplace platforms against a race to the bottom
- Freelancers who want direct agency and corporate clients but don't know how to reach them
- Anyone with a specialty (legal, medical, literary) who wants to be chosen for it instead of undercut on price
- Translators who want steady referral work but have no system building it
This is not for you if
- Translators with no completed projects yet — build a real portfolio first, then systems have something to scale
- Anyone who wants a done-for-you agency running their whole business while they stay passive — MentorMe is done-with-you, and your language skill plus a few focused hours a week is the input
- Translators looking for language or certification training — this builds the business around your skill, not the skill itself
Founder —
You searched for this for a reason. You're carrying the whole thing yourself, and you're tired of being the only one who can do the work.
You don't have a discipline problem. You have a system problem — and no one ever handed you the system.
So here it is: 90 days, real systems, a fractional CMO in your corner and an AI clone doing the work you keep doing yourself. Your name stays on the win. We just rope in.
Start your plan. The first foothold is free.

▲ Before you decide
The questions you're already asking.
I'm already booked on marketplace platforms. When would I build this?
That is exactly why it works this way. The AI executive council does the building — the direct-client outreach, the positioning, the referral system — in the hours between projects. Your weekly call with Italo is short and focused on the one or two decisions that matter. You are not adding a second job. You are getting leverage on the business you already run.
How is this different from a freelance business coach?
A business coach usually hands you a playbook and leaves you to build it alone on evenings you do not have. MentorMe pairs a human fractional CMO with an AI executive council that actually builds your direct-outreach system, your positioning, and your referral pipeline with you. You walk away with working infrastructure you own, not a binder of unfinished plans.
Can this actually get me off marketplace platforms?
Yes — a direct agency and corporate-client outreach system is usually one of the first things Italo works on with you. We build a real pipeline and the AI council builds the outreach and positioning to support it. Direct clients paying real rates are usually worth more than another string of underbid platform jobs.
What does the founding investment cover?
It covers the full 90-day build: your custom AI clone and executive council trained on your business, all five AI agents, weekly 1-on-1 sessions with Italo as your fractional CMO, and every system we build together — the direct-outreach pipeline, the positioning and portfolio, the referral system, and visibility. Founding seats are a one-time investment in the $5K to $11K range depending on the scope of your build, with no ongoing retainer required to keep what we build. There are 10 founding seats at this price so Italo's weekly attention stays real.
What happens after 90 days — do I keep the systems?
Everything we build is yours. The AI clone, the direct-outreach pipeline, the positioning, the referral system — none of it disappears when the engagement ends. The goal is to hand you a business that grows past your own hours at the keyboard, so bringing on a second translator becomes a decision you make from strength.
