The plugin supports seven translation engines, plus any endpoint that speaks OpenAI’s chat API. You
\npick one under AI Translation \u2192 Settings \u2192 General \u2192 Engine<\/strong>, paste its API key and choose a
\nmodel. Only one engine is active at a time, and each keeps its own key and model, so switching
\nbetween them \u2014 and back \u2014 costs you nothing in reconfiguration.<\/p>\n

You bring your own key, so every engine bills you directly at its published rates. The plugin adds
\nnothing on top, and requests go from your WordPress server to the engine and back.<\/p>\n

Every engine on this page is billed by its provider, per token or per character. If you would rather
\nnot pay per word at all, the plugin can also be driven from Claude or ChatGPT, where the assistant
\ntranslates and your subscription covers it \u2014 see Translating from Claude and ChatGPT (MCP)<\/em>. That is
\na separate route, not an engine you select here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Language models and machine translation<\/h2>\n

Language models<\/strong> (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude) follow instructions. They receive the translation
\nprompt, your website description, the glossary and the reasoning effort, and translate a page as
\none document.<\/p>\n

Machine-translation engines<\/strong> (Google Translate, DeepL, MyMemory) translate text and cannot follow
\ninstructions. The translation prompt, the website description and the reasoning effort are ignored.
\nThe settings screen says so under the engine select.<\/p>\n

The glossary<\/strong> is ignored too \u2014 with one exception. DeepL has a glossary API of its own, so your
\nterms are uploaded to it and honoured; Google Translate and MyMemory have no equivalent, and a site
\nwith a glossary that switches to one of those keeps translating but loses its locked terms.<\/p>\n

Available engines<\/h2>\n

Full language-model translation \u2014 follows the prompt, the website description, the glossary and the
\nreasoning effort. Billed per token.<\/p>\n
