If you are comparing website translation tools, start with your catalogue size, the languages you need and how often content changes. Then decide whether you also want a customer assistant. A headline word count alone can lead you to the wrong plan.
This comparison is written by TradeGear. Competitor prices and metering were checked on ; verify current terms before buying. We have not run a controlled translation-quality or speed comparison.
The word counts measure different things
TradeGear plans provide a monthly translation allowance. Cached translations are reused without charging for the same work again. Initial translation across multiple languages, changed content and regeneration can consume allowance. A large first pass can therefore take more than one allowance period.
Weglot describes its limit as total unique words across all translated languages, without a monthly reset. Its Free plan covers 2,000 words and one language; Starter is €15/month for 10,000 words and one language, and Business is €29/month for 50,000 words and three languages, excluding VAT.

| Question | TradeGear | Weglot |
|---|---|---|
| Free translation | 3,000 words/month, 1 language | 2,000 total unique words, 1 language |
| Entry paid plan | Growth: US$19/month per website | Starter: €15/month, excluding VAT |
| Entry paid allowance | 20,000 words/month, up to 16 languages | 10,000 total unique words, 1 language |
| AI customer conversations | 20 completed replies every 30 days on Free; 100 replies/month on Growth | Evaluate customer support separately from the translation allowance |
These prices use different currencies and different meters. The table is not an equivalent-cost or savings calculation. Compare the full work your website needs, including its first translation and later updates.
Which work do you want the tool to do?
TradeGear brings website translation and a multilingual customer assistant into one workspace. On WordPress, translated pages are served from a local translation store, while the assistant uses synchronized public products, pages and policies. You can protect names, set preferred translations and review wording.
Weglot also offers AI translation, editing, glossary controls and multilingual SEO features. Check its current feature list against your workflow. Source: Weglot’s plan features. Those features are not exclusive to TradeGear, and a pricing table cannot establish which tool translates your content better.
A useful trial, whichever tool you choose
- Choose representative content. Include a product with options, a service page, navigation and a policy. Count the content across all intended languages, not just your homepage.
- Check meaning. Ask a fluent reviewer to check product terminology, important claims and short labels. Verify protected names and preferred terms.
- Check the customer journey. Follow language links, browse products and test your theme’s cart and checkout. Confirm language URLs and indexability.
- Check ongoing work. Change a description and see how the update is handled. Understand the behaviour when your allowance or stored-word limit is reached.
- Test support separately. If you want an assistant, ask questions grounded in your policies and products, follow its sources and try a question it cannot answer.
