  • We do not require any subscription and monthly fees; you don't need to pay for storage or bandwidth. But you will have to pay for translation – and this is where we cannot offer our service for free because we also have to pay fees to NMT services (neural machine translation providers).
  • Moreover, when you register, you will have an initial translation balance that can be used to check the functionality of our plugin.

  • All translations performed by Autoglot are entirely machine-generated. The translation process is carried out automatically by software algorithms without any human intervention, editing, or post-processing.
  • Autoglot does not review, monitor, approve, or modify the translated content in any language. The service functions purely as a technical tool that provides automated translation based on the input received.

Yes, you can! Starting from version 2.3.0, Autoglot provides a flexible Translation Editor that lets you manually modify translations. This tool displays all records from translation DB with convenient “search” and “filter by language” functions. There is an option to delete translation records so they will be re-generated. The most important, translation editor comes with a “Quick Edit” button to let a site administrator, translator or proofreader manually adjust and modify the translation.

  • Our pricing depends only on your words count.
  • We can offer options where you can pay less than $0.0005 per word! This is 200 times cheaper than working with freelance translators.
  • For more information, please check our pricing page.

  • This is a number of words you can translate. You can check and replenish your translation balance via your control panel using a credit card. For pricing information, please check our pricing page.
  • When your blog posts and pages are automatically translated to another language, we will subtract the number of words in your content from your translation balance. For example, if your blog post contains 100 words, we will subtract 100 from your translation balance. If you translate your blog post to 2 languages, we will subtract 200 from your translation balance, etc.
  • If your translation balance reaches 0, we will not be able to provide new translation for you until you replenish your balance. However, unlike many other plugins, your previous translations will still be available on your website and will never be disabled until you decide to do so.

  • Yes, Autoglot follows all the best search engine optimization practices and creates fully SEO compatible language versions.
  • Autoglot will translate all HTML titles, META tags, schema.org markup, take care of all language settings, hreflang tags, etc.
  • Autoglot will also update most SEO plugins' sitemap XML files and add new language URLs there. You will not have to modify them manually!

  • It can also transliterate URLs to URL-friendly format, e.g. https://site.com/page/ to https://site.com/ko/peiji/
  • This also includes links in "alternate hreflang" and "canonical" tags, links in language switcher, forms, and sitemaps
  • All translated URLs can be modified in Translation Editor
  • This can be useful for better SEO, improved conversions, and overall user experience
  • Please note, enabling or changing settings of Translation and Transliteration of URLs will affect only URLs that have not been translated yet. If you need to update already translated URLs, you need to modify or delete them in Translation Editor.
