Pay only for what you
actually translate.
One rate. No subscriptions, no seat fees, no minimum spend. $5 = 50,000 credits — enough to translate a small indie game into 5 languages. Students and publishers pay the same.
Three models. You pick the quality.
Standard handles 95% of string work. HQ adds reasoning for dialogue + context. Premium is for narrative consistency across long arcs.
