Polyglot Translate edges out Transcy: AI Language Translate on rating (4.7★ vs 4.4★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. Pricing entry tiers: Polyglot Translate at Free plan available, Transcy: AI Language Translate at Free plan available. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Transcy: AI Language Translate has the larger user base (2,462 reviews vs 3), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Polyglot Translate's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Polyglot Translate; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Transcy: AI Language Translate's 2,462-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Polyglot Translate's broader-but-shallower coverage.

AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.
