How does the DeepL API Pro plan differ from DeepL Pro Starter/Advanced/Ultimate?

DeepL API Pro is a subscription plan specifically created for developers and for anyone who wants to integrate DeepL’s JSON-based REST API into their own products and platforms. For this reason, a subscription to DeepL API Pro does not offer access to DeepL Translator (both web and desktop apps) or an integration for CAT tools.

A subscription to DeepL API Pro offers the following benefits:

  • Maximum data security (your texts are deleted immediately after the translation)
  • DeepL translation quality
  • A billing model based on a fixed price of 4.99€ per month + usage-based costs of 0.00002€ per translated character
  • The possibility to set a monthly maximum cost control limit
  • No volume restriction on the number of characters you can translate per month

The DeepL Pro Starter, Advanced, and Ultimate subscription plans, on the other hand, offer:

  • Unlimited access to DeepL Translator (both web and desktop apps)
  • Integration of DeepL’s translation technology into your CAT tool (only Advanced and Ultimate)
  • A billing model based on a fixed price, charged once at the beginning of your monthly or annual billing period
