Content Localization API — astro-aware translation in 20 languages

Translate text content into 20 languages through the AstroWay AI gateway with an astrology glossary: specialist terms (Dasha, Nakshatra, Ascendant, Major Arcana, Life Path Number) aren’t mangled by literal translation — they keep the canonical form of the target language. Numeric fields are left untouched.

How it works

1. You send the text + target language (optionally a domain and source language; source defaults to English)
2. The API pulls the domain glossary for the language pair and builds a system prompt
3. The text goes through the AI gateway (Gemini → Groq → OpenRouter → …) with automatic failover
4. The response is the translation only; public input is not cached — your text is never stored

Endpoints

Endpoint	Method	Credits	Purpose
/v1/translate/astro	POST	15 + ⌈chars/40⌉	Translate one text (up to 3000 chars)
/v1/translate/batch	POST	15 + ⌈total/40⌉	Up to 25 strings (≤2000 chars each, ≤20000 total)
/v1/translate/languages	GET	0	List the 21 supported languages
/v1/translate/glossary/{lang}	GET	0	Download the glossary for a language

Pricing

credits = 15 + ⌈chars/40⌉ per call (batch counts the summed chars of all items). Ballpark: 60 chars ≈ 17 credits, 500 chars ≈ 28. Charged against your existing plan credits — there’s no separate tier. Roughly ~4× cheaper than DeepL.

Glossary (astro-moat)

The domain glossary (Vedic / Western / Tarot / Numerology / HD / marketing) substitutes the canonical target-language term instead of translating literally: Dasha, Nakshatra, Ascendant, Major Arcana, Life Path Number, etc.

Note

The glossary currently covers the pairs uk / en → de. The rest of the 20 languages translate without a glossary (plain LLM translation). Coverage is expanding.
