You pay $149 a month for access to human translators with our tool. Human translations have a per-word-per-language cost, and we're proud to have partnered with Gengo (which did the translations for Facebook), who has pretty much the cheapest translations on the market.
We've updated the pricing page to be more upfront about this :)

Great question. Next week we're rolling out the ability to attach context to translation requests, which means sending descriptions and pictures of the requested translation to the translator. Would that solve the issue, or is there something else we could do to address this problem?

Hi everyone! I'm Peter, co-founder of Lang.
The majority of the world isn’t English speaking, but most web apps are served only in English. This is because it’s difficult and time consuming to internationalize apps. We’ve built translation infrastructure that works out-of-the-box. With Lang, it’s easy to internationalize your site with human translators and instantly reach a global audience.
Our getting started guide is here: https://medium.com/@peterlzhou/lang-api-is-live-9a9c5273ef41 . We’ve been in a closed alpha with three SF-based companies for the last month and are excited to open up to a larger group of people! Talk to us at [email protected].
Shoutout to our team – Eric Yu, Abhi Sivaprasad, Klaire Tan, and Shreya Dixit!
We've been using Index (https://tryindex.com) and are pretty happy with them - super lightweight and easy to get started.
Edit: looks like the founders beat me to this thread! Hit em up :)
