Free to start.
Pay only for what you use.
locAGI is an integrated cloud CAT platform for enterprise localisation teams. From the public release in Q2 2027 the workbench itself is free — sign up, invite your linguists, and start translating. You pay only for the AI tokens you consume and the storage you actually use. Or skip our billing entirely and bring your own AI keys (OpenAI / Anthropic / Google) — your call. Until then locAGI is in internal use: join the waiting list.
- No credit card to create a workspace
- No per-seat fees your whole team and freelancers
- Cancel anytime no annual commit
- Your data is portable XLIFF · TMX · TBX
How locAGI is priced
The platform itself is free. You only pay for the AI tokens you consume and for storage beyond the free tier — or bring your own AI keys.
The platform itself
- Sign up, invite your linguistic team, create projects
- Integrated CAT editor — TM, terminology, comments, MQM
- Workspace roles: Owner · Admin · Manager · Translator · Reviewer
- Generous included storage from day one
- No per-seat fees, no setup fees, no annual commit
You choose how AI is billed
Two options — pick what works for your team:
- Pay-as-you-go via locAGI: we provision the AI tokens, you only pay for what you consume, no monthly minimum
- Bring your own keys (BYOK): connect your OpenAI / Anthropic / Google API keys — AI calls go straight from your workspace to your vendor, on your card
Both paths give linguists the same integrated editor experience. Switch between them any time.
Pay only when you exceed the free tier
- Every workspace gets a meaningful storage allowance free
- If you grow past it, you only pay for what you actually use
- No surprise overage fees — transparent meter in Settings
- Source documents, TMs, glossaries, project files all included
What you get vs traditional CAT tools
Traditional CAT tools charge per-seat subscriptions or thousand-euro perpetual licenses, then put AI behind a separate plugin or hosted-MT marketplace. locAGI flips both halves of that.
What we don’t pretend to have yet
The honest version: substantial pieces are still in flight. We ship in the open so design-partners can see exactly where we stand — not where we’d like to look.
- SSO (SAML / OIDC) and SCIM provisioning — on the roadmap, not shipped.
- SOC 2 Type II — readiness work underway; full attestation post Q2 2027 GA.
- Reviewer/approver workflow gates beyond the existing roles — planned for parity with Trados.
- TM cleanup wizard — on the roadmap, not yet shipped.
- The desktop CAT tools (memoQ, Trados) are more battle-tested for very large XLIFF files (50k+ segments).
Frequently asked questions
- Can I sign up today?
- Not yet. locAGI is in internal use at terratra until the public release, planned for Q2 2027. Join the waiting list and we’ll email you when it opens. From then, signing up is free: no credit card to create a workspace, invite your linguists, build termbases, or use the integrated CAT editor. You only enter payment details if you choose to buy AI tokens through us or exceed the included storage. You can also stay 100% free by bringing your own AI keys and keeping your project sizes within the free tier.
- What does “BYOK” mean for my bill?
- You connect your own OpenAI / Anthropic / Google key in Settings. locAGI sends the API call straight to that vendor; the card you have on file with them is the one charged. We don’t see your AI bill or take a cut. BYOK is for teams that already have provider relationships, procurement contracts, or in-house spending controls.
- Why use locAGI’s pay-as-you-go AI instead of BYOK?
- One bill, no procurement work, no managing multiple vendor accounts. Useful for smaller teams that don’t want to negotiate enterprise rates with three different AI providers. You can mix — some users on BYOK, others on pay-as-you-go — in the same workspace.
- Can I self-host or run it on my own server?
- No. locAGI is a managed cloud service. We considered self-hosting but decided against it — security reviews, version drift, support overhead, and the AI marketplace work all benefit from a single managed deployment. If air-gapped or fully on-prem is a hard requirement for your programme, let us know and we’ll tell you honestly whether we’re a fit yet.
- Is the source code open?
- No. locAGI is a proprietary commercial product. We invest heavily in the integrated CAT, AI alignment, and security posture; keeping the code closed is what funds that work. Your data remains yours and is fully exportable (XLIFF, TMX, TBX, MQXLIFF) at any time — no lock-in on your translations, even if the source is closed.
- What if my AI vendor raises prices?
- You swap to a cheaper one in Settings — no migration, no lost work. The per-model cost projection in the Studio analysis modal lets you see the impact of the change before you commit. Both BYOK and pay-as-you-go support every provider we’ve integrated.
