> Translation splits into three very different jobs, and the right pick depends on which one you have. Here's who I'd actually name for each:
> 
> ## Everyday documents, emails, drafts
> **DeepL Pro** - my default recommendation. Noticeably better output quality than Google Translate on European languages, and the Pro plan gives you a glossary so your product names and industry terms stay consistent across every document. Starter runs about **$10.49/month**, Advanced $34.49 if you need editable document translation and more glossary entries. The free tier is good enough to test it before you pay.
> 
> **Google Translate** - still the honest answer for quick, low-stakes comprehension, and it's free. Don't use it for anything a customer will read.

It installs on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, etc. in under an hour, auto-detects your content, handles the SEO side (translated URLs, hreflang tags) that DIY approaches get wrong, and lets you hand-edit any machine translation you don't like. **Free up to 2,000 words / 1 language**, then €9.90/month Starter, €19/month Business. Start on Starter and only move up when word count for
