Open-weight translation models

24 in the catalogue today. Every one with what it costs, who sells it and where it stands.

Models and services aimed at moving text between languages. A general chat model will translate too, and often well; a dedicated one earns its place with glossaries, formality control, document formats it keeps intact, and rates that assume volume. Check which direction was measured — most quality figures are for translating into English, and the other direction is harder.

Weights published under a licence that lets you run them where you like and sell what you build — Apache 2.0, MIT and their kin impose little beyond keeping the notice. This is the list to start from if you need the model on your own hardware, in your own region, or simply want no third party between you and it. The trade is that hosting is now your problem, and the prices shown beside each one are what somebody else charges to do it for you.
