Immersive Translate

Immersive Translate is an AI translation extension and mobile app that keeps original text alongside its translation. It's aimed at students, researchers and people who read foreign-language material for work. The bilingual page layout lets readers compare passages without replacing the source text.

It runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on macOS, with apps for iOS and Android. It connects to translation services including ChatGPT, DeepL, DeepSeek and Gemini. Its official Ollama guide also documents a local model backend. Translation processing follows the selected service; cloud engines receive the content sent for translation, while Ollama can run the selected model on your own hardware.

Document translation preserves PDF formatting and can produce bilingual or translated-only output. OCR handles scanned PDFs. It also accepts EPUB books, DOCX documents, HTML, plain text, Markdown and subtitle files, covering both reading material and work documents.

For video, it displays bilingual subtitles on YouTube, Netflix and Prime Video, and can translate videos that lack original subtitles. Meeting translation works with Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams. Image and comic translation covers web images and images supplied from your device, using OCR and inpainting to retain their layout and visual style.

Context-aware translation and customizable terminology libraries support specialized language across pages, PDFs and video subtitles. Readers can translate selected text or individual paragraphs within a page, while input-box translation helps with writing messages and searches in another language.
