Question

Translation file too big

Hi everyone,

I’m on a Typeform Business plan and I regularly use the AI translation feature.

After several uses, I sometimes get the following error message:

“Translation file too big – We were unable to complete your AI translation due to a large file size. You'll need to reduce the size of your form and try again.”

What’s confusing is that:

  • the form content hasn’t changed,

  • and the next day the translation often works again without any issue, with the exact same form.

👉 Is this expected behavior related to a temporary AI quota or usage limit (daily/monthly)?
👉 Is this limit based on overall AI usage rather than the actual form size?
👉 Is there any way to track or view AI usage on a Business account?

Thanks in advance for your help 🙏

Yeah, that "translation file too big" error pops up even on Business plans when the AI hits a temporary processing limit, not always actual form size. It often works if you retry the next day. Sounds like a daily quota thing with no public tracker. Frustrating, but common from what I've seen.
