Ask HN: If you translate with LLMs, GT or DeepL–what features are missing?
orencoda Thursday, June 26, 2025What is still the single biggest headache when you translate with GPT, DeepL or Google?
If you use DeepL – what would you need to finally pay for GPT translation?
Which features are still missing in current classical or LLM based translators.
How do you prefer pricing: SaaS, per-token, seats, or a flat plan?
Context: I’m exploring a side-project and don’t want to build the wrong thing. Not looking for promotion—just war-stories and must-have features (LLM model selection? scanned-PDF OCR? bilingual output? segment-level edits? glossary? missing format support?).
