Pricing
Advantage ReversiaReversia
By translated volume, period.
You pay for translated words, regardless of how many target languages. Adding Italian after Dutch costs nothing more in subscription.
From €199/month
Weglot
Per language × per word.
Each language you open adds a line on the bill, and the word quota is capped per tier. 5+ language brands pay two to three times more.
Often €200-800/month
Translation quality
Advantage ReversiaReversia
Claude + living glossary.
Anthropic Claude reads your brand glossary, understands your tone, holds your product names. The output ships ready to publish, not to fix.
Up to 92% accepted without edits
Weglot
DeepL with no brand context.
Translates sentence by sentence, with no memory of the brief or the brand glossary. Excellent for neutral prose, more fragile on product pages.

THE DETAILED COMPARISON
Looking for alternatives to Weglot?
Weglot, a website translation platform founded in 2016, has become a popular solution for companies wanting to internationalise their online presence.
Built on a proxy system, Weglot intercepts your site's content and translates it on the fly, mainly using DeepL as its translation engine. This generalist approach suits many types of websites.
Reversia, on the other hand, takes a fundamentally different and higher-performing approach. Unlike Weglot's proxy system, Reversia writes translations directly into your database, giving you full ownership of your translated content and superior performance.
Specialised exclusively in e-commerce, Reversia uses Anthropic's Claude, trained on e-commerce-specific data, to deliver the best translation quality on the market. With an unlimited number of languages and more competitive pricing, Reversia is the next-generation solution for demanding online merchants.
A better technical architecture
Weglot uses a proxy architecture that intercepts your requests and translates on the fly. This approach, while simple on the surface, creates total dependence on a third-party service and adds latency to every page load.
Reversia takes a radically different philosophy: your translations are written directly into your database, exactly like your original content. The result? Optimal performance, full ownership of your content, and complete independence. Your translations belong to you, forever.
Add an unlimited number of languages!
With Weglot, every new language is a new line on your bill. Want to test a market? It'll cost you. Want to offer 20 languages? Brace yourself for a hefty budget.
Reversia breaks this restrictive model. With our solution, translate into as many languages as you want, without ever paying a cent more. 5 languages or 50 languages, the price stays the same. Grow your international presence without financial constraints and test new markets freely.
E-commerce deserves specialised translation
Weglot is a generalist solution designed to translate any kind of website: blogs, showcase sites, apps... This "one-size-fits-all" approach can't capture the subtleties of e-commerce language.
Reversia is dedicated exclusively to e-commerce. Our AI models are trained on millions of product pages, descriptions and sales arguments. The result? Translations that understand the commercial context, respect the persuasive tone of your content and maximise your conversions in every language. Because a product page isn't translated like a blog post.
The power of Claude for your translations
Weglot relies mainly on DeepL, a good translation engine, but one that remains limited in its contextual understanding and its ability to adapt tone to the audience.
Reversia powers your translations with Anthropic's Claude, recognised as the most advanced AI for natural language understanding. Claude doesn't just translate word for word: it understands intent, adapts the register, and preserves the emotional impact of your commercial messages. Your international customers will have the same convincing experience as your French-speaking customers.
MIGRATION QUESTIONS
What teams who switch ask.
Three reasons come up again and again: Weglot bills on cumulative volume (translated words count for life) and the meter climbs fast once you go international, its proxy-based rendering can slow your store down and make SEO audits harder, and terminology control stays limited. Reversia injects translations natively on the store side, enforces your glossary rules, and only bills the source volume.
No, as long as you keep your hreflang tags and existing URLs. We pick up your Weglot mapping, export your translation memory, and the switchover happens without any drop in indexing.
For catalogs under 5 languages and 500 products, the two are roughly even. From 3+ languages or 10,000 products onwards, Reversia comes in 30 to 60% cheaper: we bill the source volume, not multiplied by the number of active languages.
Yes. We import your Weglot export (CSV/XLIFF) as a Reversia translation memory before go-live. Not a single string gets lost.
Reversia is native on Shopify, PrestaShop, Medusa and Payload, plus a REST API for any other stack (WordPress, Webflow, Wix, custom headless setups). Integration takes a few hours.
