# AI Translator vs Foundry

The clearest difference is rating: AI Translator at 4.4 against Foundry's 1.0. AI Translator also leads on review sentiment (36% vs 0%) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). Foundry's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 11 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AI Translator sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Foundry asks for nothing beyond the download.

AI Translator holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AI Translator has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 36% of AI Translator's written reviews are positive against 0% of Foundry's.

AI Translator ships an update every 11 months, Foundry every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
