Real reviews from real users using AutoPoly with AI translation providers.
I had an issue with some configurations during setup, but the support team helped resolve it immediately.
This plugin is doing a better job for me with translation than other AI plugins I tried before on my website. I just plug it with Gemini Pro and I've paid less than $1 for massive translates on my website with the 2.5 Flash model.
