Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Localazy
- The price ladder is stepped rather than continuous, so a project that grows from 2,500 to 2,600 source keys jumps a whole bracket rather than paying slightly more.
- Single sign-on, audit logs, an SLA, priority support and audit trails are all Enterprise-only, and Enterprise is the one tier with no published price, so the moment a security review lands you leave the transparent pricing behind.
- Counting by source key penalises content models where every paragraph is a separate key, so a documentation site or a marketing site can consume brackets far faster than an application with the same amount of text.
- Human translation is sold in the platform but its rates only become visible after you have signed up, and whether Localazy takes a margin on that work is not disclosed anywhere public.
- It is a company of roughly twenty people with no disclosed investors and no published legal entity details, which is a real continuity question for anyone putting a multi-year product localisation pipeline through it.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Localazy: What exactly is a source key?
One segment of text in your source language, such as a button label or a short paragraph. The same key translated into ten languages still counts as one key, and languages are unlimited on every plan.
Weglot: What is Weglot's pricing model?
Weglot offers seven tiers from free ($0/month with 2000 words, 1 language) to Enterprise (custom pricing). The Pro plan at $87/month includes 200,000 words and 5 languages with professional translator access.
SourceLocalazy: Is the free plan a trial?
No, the 200 key free plan is permanent and includes unlimited seats and languages. Separately, new signups get a fourteen day trial of the Business plan.
Weglot: Does Weglot offer a free trial?
Yes, all plans include a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. Users can test the platform before committing to a paid plan.
SourceLocalazy: How does it compare with per-word pricing?
It stops scaling with locale count. If you ship in three languages the difference is small; if you ship in thirty, per-key pricing is structurally cheaper rather than marginally so.
Weglot: What discount does Weglot offer for annual subscriptions?
Subscribe annually to receive 2 months free, effectively discounting your annual cost by one-sixth. You only pay the difference when upgrading plans mid-billing cycle.
SourceLocalazy: Can I get single sign-on?
Only on Enterprise, which is quoted rather than published. There is no mid-tier SSO option.
Weglot: How does Weglot handle over-limit usage?
When accounts exceed their plan's word limit, Weglot sends email notifications. An auto-upgrade feature is available to automatically move to the next tier without service interruption.
