Google Translate Applied to every page translation. A typical government page (5,000 chars) costs ~$0.25.	$0.05 / 1,000 chars
AI Quality ReviewOptional Automated review of translation accuracy, fluency, and terminology. Flags errors for correction.	$0.01 / page
Plain LanguageOptional Rewrites content at a 6th–8th grade reading level per the Plain Writing Act of 2010. Validated with Flesch-Kincaid scoring and the Federal Plain Language Guidelines checklist. Automatically re-written if the output exceeds the target grade level.	$0.20 / page
Dynamic Content & Document ReaderOptional Covers two things at the same per-page rate: (1) dynamically loaded content and interactive elements (popups, modals, AJAX), and (2) the inline Document Reader opening a linked PDF in the browser — OCR extraction on scanned pages is $0.07/page, text-based/tagged pages are free, and previously processed pages are cached permanently at no additional cost. Standard per-character translation rates apply on top of extraction either way.	$0.07 / page + translation

Actual costs depend on visitor behavior. Set a monthly budget cap in your dashboard to control spending. Cached documents and tagged PDFs are always free.

Monthly spending caps

Set a hard monthly budget cap in your dashboard. When your usage reaches the cap, translations pause automatically until the next billing period. No overages, no surprise charges. You can adjust your cap at any time.

Common questions

What counts as a "page"?

One invocation of the translation widget on one web page. If a visitor navigates to 3 pages, that's 3 translation events. AI operations (review, refine) are charged once per page per action — reviewing the same page twice counts twice.

How does document translation work?

When a visitor clicks a PDF or document link on your site, the widget can open it in an accessible, readable view and translate it into their selected language — this happens inline in the browser and doesn't change the source file. Text-based documents are processed at no cost. Scanned documents use OCR at $0.07/page, and previously viewed documents are cached so repeat views are free. If you instead need a downloadable, WCAG/PDF-UA-tagged replacement PDF file, that's a separate product: pdf.idioma.chat.

When am I charged?

At the end of each calendar month. We create a Stripe invoice for your actual usage and charge the card on file. You receive a receipt by email.

What happens if I hit my cap mid-month?

Translation stops automatically. Your existing translated content remains visible. Translations resume on the 1st of the following month, or you can top up your balance at any time.

Is there a free tier or trial?

There is no free tier, but costs scale directly with visitor usage. Use the calculator above to estimate your costs based on your site’s actual traffic. Set a monthly budget cap from day one to control spending.

Do you store the content I translate?

No. Page content is sent to Google Translate or Anthropic for processing and is not stored by us. See our Privacy Policy for details.
