Switching from Shopify Translate & Adapt

Moving beyond Shopify Translate & Adapt

Start with the translations you already have. Sorveno adopts translations stored in Shopify and protects your edits while you translate more of your store.

Pricing and fit

Shopify Translate & Adapt is free, offers automatic translation for up to 2 languages and manual translation for more, and stores translations natively in Shopify. These facts are as of September 2026, according to their listings. See source below.

Sorveno Translate

Flat monthly pricing by product count: $19 for up to 1,000 products, $39 for up to 5,000, or $79 for up to 20,000. Every plan includes a 14-day trial and unlimited languages and words within Shopify’s limit of 20 languages per store.

Translations are written to Shopify’s native translation storage through the Translations API and remain after uninstall. No theme code, proxy or DNS changes are needed.

Automatic locks for hand-edited translations, a change log with one-click restore, a glossary, per-language tone, and Japanese UI and support help you manage ongoing translation.

How to switch

  1. Review your existing Shopify translations

    Translate & Adapt stores translations natively in Shopify, so those translations are already in the storage Sorveno uses. Review your edited text and any translations marked outdated before switching.

  2. Install Sorveno and choose languages

    Install Sorveno and select the languages you need, within Shopify’s limit of 20 languages per store. You do not need to import native translations from a file.

  3. Review adopted translations and locks

    Sorveno adopts existing native translations and locks them automatically. If Shopify marks a translation as outdated because its source changed, Sorveno may refresh it and keep the previous version in the change log. Review locks and history before translating further.

  4. Translate missing content and review

    Set your glossary and per-language tone, translate missing content, and check your storefront in each language. Use the change log and one-click restore to review changes.

Will Sorveno preserve my edited translations?
