Hooked up my own DeepSeek API key and translation speed is lightning fast.
Pure gold.
Heavy pages with lots of dynamic DOM updates can lag a bit when translating.
AI-synthesized perspectives grounded in live site inspection, pricing structure, and category benchmarks — presented as editorial viewpoints rather than individual customer testimonials.
Translated text is rendered behind the original wording on the same page, letting you read both languages simultaneously instead of losing the source.
Connect API keys from 20+ LLM providers or use Google Translate, and switch between engines whenever you want different accuracy or tone.
Translation requests go directly from your browser to the provider you choose — the extension uses no intermediary servers and retains no data itself.
Adjust the appearance, placement, and styling of translated text so it fits your reading preferences and page layouts.
The source code is publicly available on GitHub, and the extension interface is translated into 35 languages for a familiar experience worldwide.
DualTran takes a different approach to in-browser translation. Rather than replacing a page's text with a translated version, it displays the translated text layered behind the original, so both remain readable at once. That dual-text layout turns every web page into a lightweight bilingual reader, which is especially useful when you want to learn a language or verify translation quality rather than simply skim.
It is built as an open-source extension (source code is publicly available) and is not a subscription service. You bring your own API keys from more than 20 supported LLM providers, or you can fall back to Google Translate, and translation requests are sent directly from your browser to the provider. The developer states that no intermediary servers are used and no data is retained by them.
DualTran also offers deep customization: you can style the translated text, adjust how it appears against the original, and switch between translation engines to match the accuracy or tone you prefer. The extension interface is localized into 35 languages and it runs on Chrome and Chromium-based browsers.
Keep the source text in view while reading the translation so you can connect new vocabulary to its meaning in context.
Translate papers, documentation, and news in place while still verifying the exact original phrasing when precision matters.
Route translation through personal API keys and skip third-party translation servers, keeping requests between you and your chosen provider.
Flip between translation engines and styles to check tone and terminology before reusing text in professional work.
