Immersive Translate is a bilingual AI translator that works on web pages, PDFs, ebooks, video subtitles, meetings, images and comics. It shows the translation next to the original text in a vertical bilingual layout, connects to more than 20 translation engines including DeepL and Deepseek, and supports over 100 language pairs. The product installs as an extension for Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari and as an app on iOS and Android. An upgrade to Pro is offered for premium features.
Students and researchers are a major audience, since it translates academic papers, application essays and medical or technical reports while keeping the original layout. Developers and tech professionals use it to read documentation and research briefs in another language. Investors and cross-border professionals read foreign news and contracts, and content creators localize videos, images and articles for new audiences. Fans can translate manga and comics, and multilingual readers can translate ebooks and fan fiction.
Typical situations include translating an English paper in Zotero, reading a foreign website bilingually while browsing, adding bilingual subtitles to a YouTube or Netflix video, and getting live translation in a Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams meeting. Scanned PDFs can be handled with OCR translation, and output can be bilingual or translation-only across formats such as PDF, ePub, HTML, TXT, DOCX, Markdown and subtitle files. Hover, text selection and input-box translation help when writing in a second language, and the company states that content is not used for AI training and requests are encrypted.
