Paid links. We earn a commission if you buy through links on this page. It never changes our ranking — see how we rank.
Pricing
We do not reprint prices. They change too often for that to be honest, and a number on our page with no date is worse than sending you to the source.
How we rated it
What it is
Machine translation, with a document mode that preserves formatting, a glossary for terms you want translated consistently, and an API.
Who it is for
Anyone publishing in more than one language who cannot afford a translator for everything, especially between European languages.
Where it is strongest
European language pairs, where its output reads more naturally than the alternatives and usually needs only a light edit.
Where it falls short
Weaker outside its strong pairs. It has no idea what your text is for, so marketing copy comes back accurate and flat. And it will translate a term of art literally unless you put it in a glossary.
Our verdict
Recommended as the best in its category, with one rule: have a native speaker read anything customer-facing. Translation is not the same as writing.
