The honest brief

LILT

Its Contextual AI learns from each translator edit in real time with verified human review built in — adaptive where raw-MT rivals are static.

  • Engine adapts to translator edits in real time
  • Built-in human-expert verification layer
  • IL6+ gov compliance and managed deployments
  • Full API plus CMS connector framework
  • No free tier — sales-led procurement only
  • Pricing fully opaque
  • Web and API only; no desktop or mobile apps
  • Overkill for individuals vs instant MT tools

Weglot

Installs on any CMS via one snippet — far less dev work than wiring up a full translation-management system.

  • Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, Wix, custom
  • Auto-detects and translates new content
  • Multilingual SEO handled automatically
  • Free tier to start
  • Custom brand-tuned AI models
  • Word-count pricing scales expensive
  • Subscription, not a one-time translation
  • Less control than a full TMS
  • Per-language tiers add up
