POEditor alternative with AI built in — from €0
POEditor is a solid, simple translation manager. But its string-based limits count every language separately, and machine translation relies on external engines without your product context.

| GetTranslated | POEditor | |
|---|---|---|
| Free plan | Free forever: 500 keys with AI translation included | Free tier with string limits — each language you add counts against it |
| Pricing model | Free forever plan (500 keys, AI included), paid plans from €7/month per workspace | Tiers based on string count across all languages: add a language, pay more |
| Target languages | 50+ languages included, unlimited on every plan — no per-language fees, ever | Allowed, but every translation consumes your string quota |

| Human review | Every AI suggestion is marked for human review before it ships — no roles or workflow to configure first | Proofreading exists, but only on paid plans |
| Time to first translation | Under 10 minutes from signup to your first translated file — no onboarding call needed | Manual setup of languages, terms and API keys before translating |
| File formats | JSON, PHP arrays, gettext PO, XLIFF, Android strings.xml, iOS .strings, YAML and Flutter ARB — 8 formats, including mobile | Broad format support |
| API & CLI | Pull/push REST API and an open-source npx CLI, included on every plan, free plan too | API available on paid plans |

When POEditor is the right choice
Choose POEditor only if you translate everything manually or with volunteer translators and just need a place to coordinate — with no AI in the loop.
When GetTranslated is the right choice
Choose GetTranslated if you want AI to produce the first draft of every language — guided by your glossary and context — with limits that stay predictable as you add languages, not multiply by them.
500 keys and AI translation included, forever. No credit card required.
