Frequently Asked Questions

Is this just Google Translate?

No. We use advanced AI that understands context, literary style, and cultural nuances. Instead of word-by-word translation, you get phrase-level understanding that preserves the author's meaning and tone.

Will this make me lazy/dependent on translations?

Actually, the opposite. Seeing words in context accelerates learning because your brain connects meaning to usage patterns. You'll naturally start recognizing phrases without needing translations.

What languages do you support?

We support translations between English, French, Italian, German, Arabic, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Ukrainian, Swedish, Greek, Czech, Hungarian, Finnish, Danish, Norwegian, Icelandic, Slovak, Bulgarian, Croatian, Serbian, Slovenian, Lithuanian, Latvian, and Estonian.

How accurate are the translations?

Our AI understands literary context, idioms, and cultural references that basic translators miss. For complex poetry or archaic language, accuracy may vary, but we handle modern prose and dialogue exceptionally well.

Do you store or share my uploaded books?

Never. Your books are only visible to you and processed securely. We don't store, share, or use your content for any purpose beyond providing translations.

What about copyright issues with uploading books?

You are responsible for ensuring you own or have rights to the books you upload. We recommend using books you've legally purchased or public domain works.

What file formats do you support?

Currently we support TXT and EPUB files. PDF support is coming soon.

Is this better than using a dictionary?

Yes. Dictionaries give isolated meanings. We show how phrases work within the story you're reading. Plus you never lose your place or break reading flow.

Will this work offline?

No, an internet connection is required for AI-powered translations. However, once translated, you can continue reading sections already processed.
