The Tranzly homepage. United Kingdom, founded 2020.

For WordPress site owners who want each page, product and menu to exist as a genuine page in every language: Tranzly translates through DeepL or an AI model using your own account, and sets no word limits.

What it is

First look: Tranzly

  1. The Tranzly demo home page in Arabic, laid out right to left, with a row of language buttons
  2. Tranzly's translation status screen, showing every language of the demo site fully translated
  3. Tranzly's engine settings: a default translation engine and a separate choice for each language
  4. Tranzly's address settings: a folder, subdomain or separate domain for each language
  5. The demo WooCommerce shop translated into French, with prices in euros
  6. Tranzly's AI agents screen with the connection address for AI apps such as Claude and ChatGPT

Tranzly is for WordPress site owners who want a translation plugin. It creates one real post per language with its own translated address, so /about/ turns into /de/ueber-uns/. It also adds reciprocal hreflang, canonical addresses and every language to the sitemap of WordPress, Yoast SEO, Rank Math, SEOPress or All in One SEO.

Translation goes through DeepL or the AI model you pick, using your own account. Tranzly displays the estimated cost beforehand and never counts or sells words, so the translation service is paid directly. The free edition on WordPress.org offers unlimited languages, a side-by-side editor, background translation jobs and a status view of each language. Corrections made by a person are protected against being re-translated.

Every 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, and imports from WPML, Polylang and TranslatePress. Through 73 built-in tools, AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can carry out the translation.

Zinn Digital® Ltd develops, sells and supports Tranzly, and Neil Lock builds it. WordPress.org counts it active on more than 7,000 sites.

First things you notice

  • Each language gets its own genuine post, tied to the original
  • Localised addresses, with the old ones sending permanent redirects
  • Reciprocal hreflang and canonicals, plus all languages listed in the sitemap
  • Machine translation from DeepL or an AI model billed to your account, with the estimate up front
  • Words are not metered: Tranzly neither counts nor sells them
  • Editor with original and translation side by side, and a status for each language
  • Translation jobs run in the background, with a report and a one-click retry
  • Switch languages via block, menu item, widget, shortcode or floating button
  • WooCommerce products come in every edition, while Pro covers the whole shop
  • Pro supports Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Beaver Builder, Oxygen and WPBakery

Pricing

Pricing model: Freemium

On WordPress.org the plugin costs nothing and has unlimited languages. Tranzly Pro is billed yearly or monthly for 1 site, 5 sites or unlimited sites, with a 14-day free trial that needs no card. Translation costs go to your connected service, not to Tranzly per word.

In brief

Does Tranzly cost nothing to use?
Yes, in its core form. The plugin on WordPress.org comes with 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, check the estimated cost beforehand, and settle up with that service directly.
Would a site in several languages load more slowly because of Tranzly?
Each translated page adds at most two database queries and sets no cookie, which means page caches carry on working.
Is switching over from WPML, Polylang or TranslatePress possible?
Yes, through Tranzly Pro. It brings across your languages and the links between translations, keeps 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 Neil Lock is the person who builds it.
