Being able to try it for free is pretty cool. I just took a snippet from a foreign news article to try it out and the process was easy.

Have you thought at all about making a more B2C product? Obviously there's less money there, but I often come across articles in Korean that I can read but have a hard time understanding that I'd love translated (and not by Google translate). I could imagine having a few bucks in my Unbabel account, and any time I come across an article I really want to read, clicking a Chrome extension/bookmarklet that sends the article to Unbabel and deducts my account balance. Then I can just read at a later time. I guess this could be used for B2B as well but not sure how useful it'd be in this context.

Also, any timeline for other languages?

edit: Just realized you have an API, maybe I'll build it :)

Hello,

We thought about having such a widget, its on our roadmap. But not really sure when we will do it. There are a lot of cool integrations we want to make. Meanwhile if you decide to build it using the API let me know, I will super happy to help you with the API.
