An AI translation extension for YouTube and the web that remembers what you look up.
Turn web pages bilingual in one click, get dual subtitles on YouTube, click a word or select a paragraph to translate, and read PDFs the same way. Translation comes from a large language model, even on the free plan, and words you look up light up when they come back.

FAQ
Can it translate a whole web page?
Yes. Press Alt+A to see the page in two languages, and again to show the original. The free plan has a daily allowance of full-page translations; Pro is fair use.
How is it different from other translation extensions?
Translations come from a large language model and follow the meaning of the sentence, not word by word. Words you’ve looked up are saved and light up when they show up again on another page, in a video or in a PDF.
Does it work with videos?
Yes, with YouTube videos that have CC subtitles: click any word in the subtitles and show them in two languages or only the original. Videos without CC subtitles aren't supported yet.
What are the limits on the free plan?
100 word lookups and 20 sentence translations a day, plus a daily allowance of full-page translations. Your word book shows the 50 most recent words; older ones stay saved in your browser and come back when you upgrade. All your words are highlighted when they come up again.
What is sent when I look up a word?
The word you selected and the sentence around it, so the meaning fits that sentence. The page address isn't sent, and PDFs are never uploaded. Privacy policy
Install it and go. No sign-up.
