## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-28 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> "Translation" for a remote team usually means one of three different jobs, so here's what I'd actually pick for each.
> 
> ## 1. Day-to-day text - docs, Slack messages, emails
> 
> **DeepL Pro** - my default recommendation. Noticeably better output than Google for European languages and Japanese, it has team seats with a shared glossary so your product names and jargon stay consistent, and it's cheap: Team is ~$28.74/user/mo and Business ~$57.49/user/mo billed annually (tiers were renamed in 2026 - Starter→Individual, Advanced→Team, Ultimate→Business). The API is ~$5.49 per 1M characters, roughly 3.6× cheaper than Google Cloud Translation basic if you wire it into internal tools.

> 
> **Google Translate** - only if your team's languages fall outside DeepL's set. It covers 130+ languages vs DeepL's narrower but higher-quality list. ([aiagentrank.io](https://aiagentrank.io/blog/deepl-vs-google-translate-2026))
> 
> ## 2. Live meetings
> 
> **Whatever's already in your meeting tool** - start here before buying anything.
> - **Zoom**: translated captions cover
