What is Crowdin?
Crowdin is a cloud localization platform that manages translation of software, apps, websites, games, marketing and documentation content.

Who it's for
Crowdin says its standard plans are for individual developers, small internal teams and crowdsourced translation, while Crowdin Enterprise is for organizations managing multiple products. Open source and academic projects can request free licenses.
Pros & cons
Strengths
- Crowdin's site lists 100+ supported file formats, 700+ apps and integrations, 50+ built-in QA checks and 40+ machine translation engines.
- Integrations named on the site include GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Figma, WordPress, Webflow, Contentful, Shopify, Unity, Unreal Engine, HubSpot and Zendesk, plus an API, a CLI and over-the-air updates for mobile apps.
- Crowdin's support docs say its AI can run auto-translation, AI suggestions in the editor, AI QA checks and AI review of string context, with providers including OpenAI, Google Gemini, Mistral, Anthropic, xAI and DeepSeek, or your own API key.
- The pricing page says all paid plans include unlimited translators and proofreaders, and that plans can be upgraded or downgraded at any time.
- The pricing page says free open source and academic licenses include unlimited projects, strings and members, and lists a Free plan (Reported: 60,000 hosted words and unlimited public projects).
- Crowdin's site lists data residency, SAML SSO, 2FA, IP allowlists and role-based permissions as security features; the pricing page also offers a 14-day Team trial and a 30-day Enterprise trial.
Limitations
- Each plan has a hosted-words cap, counted as source words multiplied by target languages (500 words in 10 languages counts as 5,000), applied across all projects in the account.
- Reported figures: Free and Pro include 60,000 hosted words, Team 100,000 and Team+ 500,000; Free has 1 private project, Pro 2 private projects and 2 integrations, Team 5 managers and 3 integrations. Higher tiers add integrations, managers, SSO and SLAs.
- Machine translation and AI models managed by Crowdin are separately paid services drawn from a prepaid balance; the AI docs do not say which plans include AI features.
- Crowdin Enterprise (Business plan) is annual billing only with no public price, and the OSS license requires approval, a public project with no related commercial product, and contributing translations to Crowdin Global TM.
- Price sources disagree: the official pricing table could not be read, third-party pages show $59 and $179 monthly or $50 and $150 on annual billing for Pro and Team. The Crowdin AI pages do not say whether customer content is used to train models; they advise using your own API key if data security is a concern.
