💡 Understanding Your Results
The main price shown for each engine is the total cost after deducting any free tier allowances. The breakdown section shows how costs are calculated: base translation cost, monthly subscription fees (if any), and the final total after free units are applied. Units billed indicates whether the engine charges for input characters only, output characters only, or both. Prices may include language pair multipliers based on linguistic complexity and market availability.
When using LLM-based translation engines, any contextual information attached to the prompt—such as style instructions, domain hints, glossary entries, or surrounding text—also contributes to the total billed volume, which means the overall cost can increase accordingly.
