About DeepL+
DeepL translates text and documents and polishes writing, and many people find its translations more natural than free alternatives. The free version is handy for quick jobs, but DeepL uses free-version content to improve its models, while paid Pro plans do not store or train on your texts. DeepL also runs an NGO programme that gives selected nonprofits access.
Pricing: Individual €7.49 per month annual (300,000 characters a month); Team €24.99 per user per month annual (1 million characters per user, team admin); Business €49.99 per user per month annual (unlimited characters); Enterprise custom. Write Pro is €6.99 per user per month. 30-day free trials for Individual and Team. A free version also exists.

The product is AI: neural machine translation and writing assistance.
Data & privacy+
For DeepL Translator Pro, API Pro and Write Pro, DeepL says submitted texts and documents are not permanently stored and are deleted after translation, and paid plans carry a no-training promise. The free version differs: DeepL states it processes content to train and improve its neural networks for a limited period. Document translation is processed on DeepL's infrastructure in the EEA. Higher tiers add ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II compliance.
