One of the features that it offers is &#8220;machine translation&#8221;. This feature relies on paid translation engines and we&#8217;ve started charging for heavy usage of it.<\/p>\n<p>When you use <a href=\"https:\/\/translate.google.com\/\">Google Translation<\/a> on the web, it&#8217;s free, but you can only use it for one piece of text at a time. To use machine translation in bulk, Google and Microsoft charge a small fee.<\/p>\n<p>Until now we managed to absorb the cost of this fee. However, the usage of WPML&#8217;s Advanced Translation Editor and, especially, the <strong>automatic translation<\/strong> feature is on the rise and we have to start charging for using it.<\/p>\n<p>New sites that start using WPML&#8217;s Advanced Translation Editor receive a free quota of 2000 words. This is roughly 5 pages with a medium amount of content. If you use the automatic translation feature here and there, you&#8217;re not going to reach this quota very soon. When you use it to translate entire websites, it will run out after a few pages.<\/p>\n<div class=\"alert alert-info\" role=\"alert\"><strong>Update:<\/strong> At the time of writing, the pricing information below was correct. However, please refer to <a href=\"https:\/\/wpml.org\/documentation\/automatic-translation\/automatic-translation-pricing\/\">Pricing for Automatic Translation<\/a> for the most up-to-date pricing information.<\/div>\n<p><del>Then, if you want to get more machine translation (which we pay for), you can buy tiny, medium or large chunks of quota:<\/del><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><del>Personal: $0.99 &#8211; 1500 words ($0.667 \/ 1000 words)<\/del><\/li>\n<li><del>Business: $9.99 &#8211; 20000 words ($0.5 \/ 1000 words)<\/del><\/li>\n<li><del>Publisher: $49.99 &#8211; 150000 words ($0.333 \/ 1000 words)<\/del><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<h3>Can I use my own machine translation API key?<\/h3>\n<p>Sorry, but no. Our application runs on our own servers (hosted), so we can only use our own keys.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I use a free translation engine, like Deepl?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"alert alert-info\" role=\"alert\"><strong>Update:<\/strong> Yes, you can now use DeepL to power automatic translation. Though not free, it costs the same as Google Translate. Read more about <a href=\"https:\/\/wpml.org\/announcements\/2022\/06\/deepl-for-wordpress-lower-pricing-and-better-automatic-translation-with-wpml\/\">the latest WPML updates with DeepL<\/a>.<\/div>\n<p>Deepl is excellent, but doesn&#8217;t currently give the language coverage and availability that we need. Additionally, Deepl <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deepl.com\/pro.html\">isn&#8217;t staying free forever<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Are you planning to mix between different machine translation engines?<\/h3>\n<p>According to our tests, if we stay with one provider, we get better results. Different engines offer some temporary advantages in some language pairs, but this fluctuates.<\/p>\n<h2>Feedback? Questions? Ideas?<\/h2>\n<p>We created the automatic translation feature for your benefit and we want to make sure that you enjoy using it.
