Smartcat expands compare plans with Compliance Coworker, new workflow limits
What happened
Between the Sep 14, 2026 and Sep 21, 2026 captures of Smartcat's pricing page, Pulse recorded 2 changes: Compare plans table restructured: added Compliance Coworker and Custom coworkers rows; split Automations into workflow-limit rows; renamed Governance rows (Reports & apps, Organization Admin, Data Residency); Smartwords balance sharing improved for Anticipate/Autonomous (now shared across workspaces vs workspace-bound); Automations row replaced with explicit Global (1/2/6/30) and Personal (0/1/2/3) workflow limits. Pulse files it as a packaging change (limit raised, feature change). Pulse's latest capture (Nov 9, 2026) lists Adapt at $100.
It lands 49 days after Smartcat's previous change, "Smartcat: Jira integration added to Anticipate plan" (Aug 3, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Smartcat scraps 2-tier plans for 4-tier AI Coworkers pricing up to $60K/yr" (Jul 13, 2026). Smartcat has been tracked since 2026-06-25.
In the same window Lokalise and Phrase also changed their AI & Machine Learning pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
