I’ve recently switched my website from Polylang to TrueLang, and I wanted to share my experience. I’m not getting paid for this recommendation. I simply think it’s a useful tool that even small businesses can afford.
Affordable AI translation
TrueLang lets you use your own AI API or the TrueLang API, which even includes free starting credits. There are several models to choose from, and Google Gemini Flash 3.6 has worked particularly well for me.
The best part? Translating my entire website, including the WooCommerce webshop costs less than one dollar per language.
Of course, the actual cost depends on the size of your website and the model you choose.
On top of that, you have the price of the plugin itself, which starts at $99 USD. It’s worth mentioning that this is a lifetime license. Subscriptions are a deal-breaker for me.
Useful tools and flexibility
TrueLang comes with a few features that make managing translations easier:
- TrueLang Editor and Page Translation: Manually adjust individual parts of your website.
- Fix Gaps: Find and translate strings that haven’t been translated yet.
- Translation styles: Choose between Neutral and Contextual, which takes your brand voice into account. I’m using the neutral style and am happy with it.
Switching from Polylang
The migration from Polylang was automatic, including redirects for URLs that were no longer in use. That saved me quite a bit of work.
My website has been around for about ten years and has a few peculiarities. Theo, the developer behind TrueLang, was incredibly helpful whenever I ran into issues.
His support is probably what impressed me most. He’s smart, friendly, hardworking, and genuinely takes the time to help.
My conclusion
TrueLang does what I need at a very reasonable price. For my particular website, it was not a completely hands-off process, but very close to it. Whenever I ran into issues, Theo would immediately help. I already rate Truelang 5/5 and it is still getting better every week.
I’m not earning anything from this recommendation. I simply had a good experience, and I think Theo deserves some credit for building a useful tool and being so helpful.
