Native vs proxy: AutoLingo vs Weglot on PrestaShop

Translate in the back-office or via an external proxy? Architecture has a real impact on SEO and control.

On PrestaShop, two philosophies clash. AutoLingo translates natively in the back-office; Weglot serves translations via an external proxy. The difference matters.

Control & data

Natively, your translations live in your PrestaShop database, with your API key and your data. No dependency on a third-party service to display your pages.

Business model

AutoLingo costs $39.99 a year with no word limits; proxy solutions run on subscriptions, often with word or view limits.

One tool, every CMS. Powered by DeepL, Google Translate and OpenAI.
