nextai-translator
Cross-platform desktop app and browser extension for ChatGPT-powered translation.
Translate, polish, and summarize text across 55 languages using LLM APIs.
Nextai-translator is a multi-platform desktop application and browser extension that brings ChatGPT and other LLM APIs directly into your workflow. It is designed for professionals, writers, and translators who need contextual translation, text polishing, and summarization inside any application or browser.
What it is
The tool bridges your workflow with major LLM providers like OpenAI, Azure OpenAI Service, MiniMax, and TeamoRouter. It provides three core modes—translation, polishing, and summarization—across 55 languages, alongside features like screenshot translation, Text-to-Speech, and vocabulary book generation.
Who it's for
It suits professionals, researchers, and polyglots who want to use their own LLM API keys for contextual translation and writing assistance. It does not suit users looking for a traditional out-of-the-box translation service with a fixed subscription fee, as you must provide and pay for your own API access.
