DeepL: Translate & Write is the official Chrome extension built by DeepL, the Cologne-based company behind one of the most respected machine-translation engines on the market. Rather than copying text into a separate tab, the extension puts translation and rewriting directly into your browsing flow: highlight a paragraph to translate it on the spot, or convert a whole article into your language without losing the page layout.
The extension goes beyond plain translation. Inside Gmail, Google Docs and Google Slides it offers inline translation with alternatives and a dictionary, plus wording corrections and tone suggestions that make a draft clearer. DeepL's glossary feature keeps brand, product and domain terminology consistent, which matters for teams that publish in several languages.
DeepL supports translation for more than 30 languages and writing assistance for 5+ languages. The free tier is usable for casual reading and short messages but has character limits; unlimited page translation, automated page translation and glossaries are reserved for DeepL Pro and DeepL Write Pro. DeepL emphasises security: Pro and Write Pro traffic is not stored or reused to train models, while content sent through the free tier may be used to improve the service — so confidential material belongs on a paid plan.
