Free, Pro, and what the subscription pays for
Translation is free on every platform. Pro adds encrypted sync and the local API on one device. Here is exactly where the line is.

Translation is free. Text, documents, PDFs, pictures, the camera, Talk, subtitles, dubbing, the glossary, the memory, the Desk — all of it runs on your device at no cost and without an account, and none of it is metered. That is not a trial; it is the product, and it costs us nothing per translation because it runs on your machine.
What Pro adds
Pro is one subscription for one device, at the price on the pricing page. It adds:
- Encrypted sync of your glossary and history between your signed-in devices (the browser also syncs your translation memory) — encrypted on the device, unreadable to us.
- The local API at full speed: the same on-device engine, driven from your own programs and AI agents on that machine. See for developers.
Nothing about translation quality, speed or language coverage differs between free and Pro. There is one recipe.
One device
A subscription covers one device. The billing page under your account lists the device it is bound to; a second computer needs its own subscription, and the page says so plainly rather than offering a transfer that does not exist. Signing out does not release the device, so you can sign back in on the same machine without touching it.
Paying and receipts
Every payment produces a receipt by email, and the billing page keeps its own record of each payment in case the mail is lost. The billing page states how your payment method renews — a card subscription renews by itself, a crypto payment covers its month and is not renewed for you — and shows the day your current month ends. The refund policy is short and applied as written.
Your data on our side
With no account we hold nothing about you. With an account we hold your email, your subscription and payment records and — if you turned sync on — the encrypted sync data, which we cannot read. Your translations are never among them, because they never reach us. To close the account, email us from the address on the support page and we delete all of it; the privacy page lists every row and is the binding statement.
- Do I need Pro to use the desktop or phone apps?
- No. The apps are free to download and translate without an account.
- What if I use two computers?
- Translation works on both for free. Pro is per device, so sync between two computers needs a subscription on each.
- Is there a team or business plan?
- Not yet. When there is, it will appear on the pricing page first; nothing about it is sold before it exists.
