VersQ is a specialist translator for PDF, DOCX and EPUB, and the reasons to leave are about metering. Allowances are in effective words that shrink with premium models, the free plan allows only budget models and HTML downloads, free use needs registration, and Personal is capped at 75,000 words before overage at $1.00 per 1k words.
ChatGPT and Claude are general assistants that can handle translation among other tasks. ChatGPT Plus is $20 per user per month and Claude Pro is $20 per user per month; both have a free plan with usage limits. Google Gemini has a free tier too, and Google AI Plus is $4.99 per user per month with 2x higher usage limits than Free.
Notion AI adds AI to a workspace for writing, search and research; it has a free tier and Plus is $12 per member per month, with AI only as a limited trial. None of these is described as a dedicated document translator with translation memory.

Taken from the documented limitations in our VersQ profile.
| Tool | Starting price | Free tier | Platforms | Main limitation |

| ChatGPT | $20/mo (Plus (consumer)) | Yes | Web, Desktop, Mobile, API | Almost every tool (uploads, images, voice, deep research, Codex) has plan-dependent usage caps that OpenAI states can change over time, and the API is billed separately from every ChatGPT subscription. |
| Claude | $20/mo (Pro) | Yes | Web, Desktop, Mobile, API | All plans have usage limits that reset on a schedule; the paid chat subscription does not include API access, which is billed separately per token. |
| Google Gemini | $4.99/mo (Google AI Plus) | Yes | Web, Desktop, Mobile | Usage is governed by compute-based limits that refresh every 5 hours up to a weekly cap, and free-tier chats with Keep Activity on are used to train Google models with human review. |
| Notion AI | $12/mo (Plus) | Yes | Web, Desktop, Mobile | Full AI needs Business or Enterprise, and even there a rolling six-hour and monthly usage allowance applies; premium models, Custom Agents and Workers consume separately purchased Notion credits. |
