Companies Using Weglot

We detect Weglot on 66,670 domains, including Doordash, WTW group, Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. A detection means the technology is present on that domain, which for large organisations is often a single storefront or subdomain rather than a company-wide deployment. Among domains we matched to a company with a resolved industry, the most common is Business Consulting and Services (3.75%).

We detect 66,670 domains running Weglot across our monthly crawl of live business domains. Company data could be matched for 46,047 of them (69.1%), and every company-size, industry and country breakdown on this page describes that matched subset rather than the full detected base. A further 7,871 domains carried a Weglot detection previously and no longer do.

Weglot holds 8.77% of the Translation & Localization category, ranking #4. This is a share of the domains we detect running a platform in this category — not a share of all websites, and not a share of spending — so it is not directly comparable to figures published on other denominators.

The top alternatives to Weglot include WPML (33.79% market share), Polylang (31.96% market share), GTranslate (21.47% market share), langify (0.98% market share) — measured as a share of the domains we detect running a platform in this category.

United States leads with 11,017 matched Weglot domains, followed by France (3,937), Germany (3,227), Canada (2,881), Netherlands (2,395). These are counts within the 46,047 domains we could match to a company record, not the full detected base.

The most common company size is 1-10 employees, representing 58% of the Weglot domains we could match to a company record and size — a subset of 46,047 matched companies, not of all 66,670 detected domains. This is followed by 11-50 employees (24.38%) and 51-200 employees (10.34%).

Among the Weglot domains we could match to a company with a known founding date, the largest group was founded in the 2010s (34.74%), followed by the 2020s (27.24%). That matched subset is drawn from 46,047 companies and is not representative of all 66,670 detected domains. This suggests Weglot is most popular among relatively young companies.

The ideal Weglot customer is: Company Size: 1-10 employees, Location: US, France, or Germany, City: Paris, New York, London, Madrid, Founded: 2010-2019, Company Age: ~7-16 years old — based on our analysis of 46,047 enriched companies at TechnologyChecker.io.

Weglot offers a free plan with 2,000 translated words and 1 language. Paid plans start at $17/month (Starter, 10,000 words, 1 language), $32/month (Business, 50,000 words, 3 languages), $87/month (Pro, 200,000 words, 5 languages), and $329/month (Advanced, 1M words, 10 languages), per weglot.com/pricing. Annual billing saves roughly 2 months. Enterprise pricing is custom. The company raised $50M from Partech in March 2022, per TechCrunch.

Yes. Weglot's free plan includes 2,000 translated words and 1 translated language. It covers AI translation and a glossary feature. The word limit is a fixed cap, not a monthly renewal. For most business websites with more than a few pages, you'll hit the 2,000-word limit quickly and need to upgrade to a paid plan starting at $17/month.

Weglot uses a combination of machine translation (Google, DeepL, and OpenAI models per support.weglot.com/article/439-ai-commitments) and manual editing. Based on 362 G2 review mentions, users praise its ease of use but cite translation accuracy as the #1 area for improvement (51 mentions). Weglot is a preferred DeepL partner (per deepl.com/en/customer-stories/weglot-partner), and the Pro plan adds access to professional human translators for manual refinement.

Yes. Weglot integrates with Shopify and Shopify Plus through its official app, which has 816 reviews at 4.5/5 on the Shopify App Store (per apps.shopify.com/weglot). Our data shows Shopify co-occurs on 18.28% of the live Weglot set, making it the third-largest host platform behind Squarespace (30.68%) and WordPress (30.26%).

Yes. Weglot creates dedicated URLs for each language (subdirectory or subdomain), adds hreflang tags automatically, and generates translated sitemaps. The Pro plan also translates URL slugs. This is the key differentiator from a JavaScript translate widget, which rewrites text in the browser without producing an indexable page per language, so search engines never see the translated content as separate URLs.

For companies under 50 employees expanding into multilingual markets, Weglot is one of the fastest routes available, and 82.4% of matched Weglot customers in our database sit under that threshold. The trade-off is cost: G2 reviewers cite pricing for larger stores as a recurring criticism, and the one switching corridor we can verify runs to GTranslate, which offers a more generous free tier.

Weglot integrates with WordPress (60,000+ active installations per wordpress.org), Shopify (816 reviews per apps.shopify.com), Webflow, Squarespace, Wix, BigCommerce, Drupal, Joomla and dozens more. Our tech stack data shows the base split almost evenly between Squarespace (30.68%) and WordPress (30.26%), with Shopify at 18.28% and Webflow at 9.28%.

By detected domains, Weglot's competitors are WPML (256,823), Polylang (242,896), GTranslate (163,188) and langify (7,456), against Weglot's 66,670. Two caveats matter. WPML and Polylang are WordPress-only plugins, so their scale reflects WordPress's installed base rather than a head-to-head contest. GTranslate is the genuine direct rival, and it is the only competitor our switching data confirms Weglot loses domains to at a rate above base.

Weglot's adoption is extremely horizontal: no single industry reaches 4%. Business Consulting and Services leads at 3.75%, followed by Non-profit Organizations (3.22%), Hospitality (3.03%), Software Development (2.79%) and IT Services (2.68%). Education is the hidden concentration, with Primary and Secondary Education (2.34%) and Education Administration Programs (1.76%) together reaching 4.10%.

WPML is a WordPress-only plugin that stores translations in your database; Weglot is a SaaS proxy that works on any platform, including Shopify, Webflow and Squarespace. That difference shows in the numbers: WPML is detected on 256,823 domains against Weglot's 66,670, but essentially all of WPML's are WordPress, while roughly 60% of Weglot's base sits on hosted builders WPML cannot reach. Our switching data shows traffic running near-symmetrically in both directions between the two, which indicates evaluation rather than migration.

Yes. Weglot works at the proxy level, translating content after it renders in the browser. This means it catches dynamically loaded content, JavaScript-rendered text, pop-ups, and forms. Users on G2 note hassle-free integration (94 mentions) as a top benefit, partly because Weglot doesn't require code-level changes to handle dynamic elements.

Weglot supports over 110 languages. The number of languages you can translate to depends on your plan: 1 language on Free and Starter, 3 on Business, 5 on Pro, 10 on Advanced, and custom for Enterprise. Our data shows Weglot is most popular in multilingual European markets, with France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, and Switzerland in the top 7 countries by customer count.
