“Higher plan” means the app offers the feature, only not on the plan shown. An app with fewer plans shows its highest plan at the upper levels.
Monthly prices in the provider's own currency, before tax. Several providers are cheaper when billed yearly. With ContentPilot you either use your own AI key — then your AI provider bills the usage separately — or a plan with AI included.
How Transcy works
Transcy is a Shopify app that combines translation with a currency converter, visitor location detection and image translation. It works with several translation engines and offers a language and currency switcher for the storefront.
Where Transcy is strong
- Translation, currency conversion and location detection in one app.
- Translates the text inside images.
- Glossary and a choice of translation engines.
- Translates texts from other apps.
What ContentPilot adds
- Your own instructions for the AI, so translations follow your tone
- Every language Shopify allows, on every plan.
- Writes and improves product texts, SEO titles and alt texts.
- A full SEO toolkit and AI-search visibility.
- A spreadsheet editor for the whole catalogue, plus variant image galleries
Which one fits you?
Choose Transcy if you need a currency converter beyond Shopify Markets or text translated inside images. Choose ContentPilot if you want translations in your own voice and one app for texts, SEO and translations.
Based on the providers' own App Store listings and help pages, as of October 2026. Apps change quickly — check the current listing before you decide. “Not stated” means we could not find a clear answer, not that the feature is missing. Spotted something out of date? Tell us and we will correct it.
