A WordPress translation plugin offering as many languages as you like, with no cap on words translated
Tranzly gives every WordPress page, product and menu its own real page in each language, translated by DeepL or an AI model through your own account, with no word limits.
In pictures
Tranzly is a translation plugin for WordPress that creates a separate real post for each language.
A WordPress translation plugin offering as many languages as you like, with no cap on words translated
Every translation has its own address, so /about/ turns into /de/ueber-uns/. Tranzly also adds reciprocal hreflang, canonical addresses and every language to the sitemap of WordPress, Yoast SEO, Rank Math, SEOPress or All in One SEO.
Translating happens through DeepL or the AI model you pick, using your own account. The estimated cost is shown beforehand, and because Tranzly never counts or sells words, you pay the translation service directly. The free edition on WordPress.org offers unlimited languages, a side-by-side editor, background translation jobs and a status view for every language. Edits made by a human reviewer are shielded from being translated again.
A translated page adds at most two database queries and sets no cookie, so page caches keep working. Tranzly Pro brings the whole WooCommerce shop with prices in the visitor's currency, Elementor, Divi, Bricks and other page builders, a glossary and translation memory, translator and reviewer roles, plus imports from WPML, Polylang and TranslatePress. AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can drive translation through 73 built-in tools.
Zinn Digital® Ltd develops, sells and supports Tranzly, and Neil Lock builds it. Over 7,000 sites are active with it, according to WordPress.org.

Pricing
Pricing model: Freemium
The WordPress.org plugin costs nothing and covers any number of languages. Tranzly Pro comes yearly or monthly for 1, 5 or unlimited sites, with a 14-day trial on each and no card required. Translation costs go to your connected service, not to Tranzly by the word.

In brief
- What does Tranzly cost to start with?
- The plugin on WordPress.org costs nothing to install and includes unlimited languages, linked translations, machine translation using your own DeepL or AI key, translated addresses, hreflang and sitemaps. Tranzly Pro extends this to the whole WooCommerce shop, page builders such as Elementor and Divi, bulk translation and team workflow.
- Is there a per-word fee with Tranzly?
- No. Tranzly never counts or sells words. Link your own DeepL, Google, Microsoft or AI account, look at the estimated cost beforehand, and settle up with that service directly.
- Does adding languages make my site slower?
- Each translated page adds at most two database queries and sets no cookie, which means page caches carry on working.
- Is it possible to switch over from WPML, Polylang or TranslatePress?
- Yes, using Tranzly Pro. It brings across your languages and the links between translations, leaves the previous plugin's data untouched, and a single button reverses the import.
- Which company is behind Tranzly?
- Zinn Digital® Ltd develops, sells and supports Tranzly, and the build work is done by Neil Lock.
