I thought it would be interesting to compare Proz's own Pastey with CotranslatorAI in terms of features.

Interesting Jun 3

Thanks, Hans, for letting me (us) know about CotranslatorAI. That prompt repository is exactly what I was looking for. I will be testing it over the next few months.

Reading this post: "Level up your prompts! Be a tester for a new service (prompt library)", it seems to me that they are working on a prompt library for Pastey.

API cost Jul 3

Here's some feedback on the CotranslatorAI program, specifically regarding the cost of the API…

I've been using CotranslatorAI for the past month. While I haven't been using it heavily, every request I made in June was through the CotranslatorAI client. Before that, in April and May, I was using ChatGPT via the Chat platform, which costs $20 per month.

Here's some feedback on the CotranslatorAI program, specifically regarding the cost of the API…

I've been using CotranslatorAI for the past month. While I haven't been using it heavily, every request I made in June was through the CotranslatorAI client. Before that, in April and May, I was using ChatGPT via the Chat platform, which costs $20 per month.

At first, I was worried about the unpredictable costs of using an API. But to my surprise, my usage in June only racked up a mere $0.32! Of course, your mileage may vary, especially if you integrate it into a CAT tool and request translations for every segment. As for me, there's no way I'll ever hit the $20 I used to pay. So, if someone views Pastey and its "free" API as a $20 monthly gift, that's not quite accurate.

This applies to any API-based solution. I believe Phrase Express can also connect to ChatGPT through an API.

One advantage I see for Pastey is that it can also "talk" to Claude and Gemini.

A major advantage for CotranslatorAI is its prompt library. Not just the feature itself, but the fact that the developer provides a vast library of optimized templates, some of which are quite elaborate. In theory, since prompt engineering is crucial for AI, this should yield much better results.
