   Budget roughly $0–$10 for the AI translation itself for one language pair, assuming the service bills by character and your manuscript is around 300,000–350,000 characters. At published rates of about $15–$20 per million characters, that works out to roughly $4.50–$7 before any free allowance. (aws.amazon.com.cdn.amazon.com)

   You might pay nothing in usage fees if you qualify for a free tier: Google lists the first 500,000 characters per month as free for standard translation, and Amazon offers a limited free tier for eligible accounts. (cloud.google.com)

   That’s just the machine translation—not a human editor’s review. For a manuscript intended for publication, budget separately for proofreading or literary editing; fees and quality can vary substantially by language pair. Formatting, file limits, and the service’s subscription plan can also affect the total.
