Weglot review and real cost

Automatically translates your whole store with AI and serves SEO-ready translated pages.

Good, with caveats5/8 checks passed#2 of 3 in translationBy Weglot4.5 from 830 App Store reviews

Verdict

Weglot suits stores that want every page translated and indexed with little setup, and that have a modest word count^1,2. The catch is that the monthly fee follows your total translated words, so a 315,000-word store pays about $334 a month, charged in euros².

Stores that want full-site AI translation without a developer
Merchants who want glossary rules and a visual editor
Small catalogues under 50,000 words

Skip it if

Large catalogues whose word count pushes them to Advanced or higher

Merchants who want Shopify Flow automation

Each plan also caps translation requests, roughly translated page views². Weglot's plans are priced and charged in euros, so the dollar figure moves with the exchange rate².
