Biggest opportunity: “ai translation”, “i18n” and “language” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.
Not scored yet. Nobody has reviewed this plugin, so a grade would come from directory averages rather than from anything measured here.

How it's measured →5.2%
of downloads still active
At least 700 of 13.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Multilingual plugin keeps 0.8%, across 280 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Multilingual plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 7 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.
