Alternative to WPML

Starting at $99 - one-time payment
Join 500+ WordPress sites using TrueLang
WPML creates a duplicate of every page, post, and product for each language. Your database grows 2x, 3x, 5x... and you pay every year to keep it running.
TrueLang pre-translates your pages using AI and serves them instantly from your local database. No duplication, no bloat. One original page, every language ready.
Switching from WPML? TrueLang handles the transition automatically so you don't lose any SEO.
TrueLang scans your database and identifies all duplicate pages, posts, and products created by WPML.
Remove WPML's duplicate content while keeping your originals intact. Your database shrinks back to normal.
Every old WPML URL is automatically redirected to the new TrueLang URL. Zero broken links, zero lost rankings.
WPML can translate the WordPress admin panel (back-office) and theme/plugin strings. TrueLang focuses on translating your public-facing content - the pages your visitors and search engines see. If you need a fully translated admin dashboard, WPML may be a better fit for that specific need.
WPML charges an annual subscription that renews every year. TrueLang is a one-time payment - you keep it forever.
