What is DeepL?

DeepL began as a web translator and now sells a bundle of language tools: Translator, Write, Voice and an API. The free translator works in the browser, desktop apps and mobile apps without a subscription, while DeepL Pro is billed per user.

Plans at a glance

  • Individual: one user, 300,000 characters and 3 file translations a month.
  • Team: 1,000,000 characters per user, 20 files, bulk file translation, analytics, SSO for 50+ users.
  • Business: unlimited characters under a fair usage policy, 100 files, translation memory, domain capture and Write Pro.
  • Enterprise: custom character and file limits, bring your own key, 99.9% availability and a dedicated account team.

Limitations

The free terms allow DeepL to process submitted text to improve its models, so confidential material belongs on a paid plan. File quotas are tight at the bottom: 1 file a month free, 3 on Individual. Write Pro is a paid add-on unless you are on Business, and Voice is capped at 30 minutes per user each month. Prices are shown in local currency, so the same plan appears in euros or pounds outside the US.

DeepL FAQ

Yes. The free version translates up to 50,000 characters a month plus 1 file of up to 5 MB. Under DeepL's free terms, submitted texts may be processed for a limited period to train and improve its models.

Individual raises the allowance to 300,000 characters and 3 file translations of up to 30 MB, adds full-page translation, and promises no data training. Team and Business add bulk file translation, administration, analytics and SSO.

No. A Pro plan raises DeepL Write to 2,000 characters at a time, but unlimited use with maximum data security needs the Write Pro add-on at $9.49 per user a month. Business includes Write Pro.

Not on the old plan. DeepL's help center says API Free and API Pro can no longer be purchased. New developers start on API Developer, which covers 1,000,000 characters in total that never reset, then move to API Growth.

DeepL's translator page advertises 100+ languages for translation. DeepL Write supports far fewer: Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish, with UK and US English and Brazilian Portuguese variants.
