About Live Translate

New Feature: Explore the Visual World with In-Place Screen Translation

Live Translate video 1Live Translate video 2

Meet the groundbreaking In-Place Screen Translation feature added to our application! Now, you can translate not only audio but also the text on your screen in real-time. With a single press of a hotkey, you can have the text on your screen replaced with its translated versions while preserving their original positions.

How does this feature work?

When you press the hotkey, our application takes a snapshot of the entire screen, intelligently detects all the text on it, translates it to the target language, and then erases the original text to place the translations in their spot. This way, you'll feel as if the content was in your language from the very beginning.

Unlimited Use Cases:

In-Game Translation: Understand game menus, character dialogues, inventory descriptions, and more instantly in your language.
Film and Video Translation: Easily comprehend on-screen text in foreign films or documentaries without subtitles.
Webtoons, Manga, and Comics: Follow your favorite visual stories without language barriers.
Applications and Software: Use the interfaces of foreign programs effortlessly.

Press your hotkey and step into a new world where every text on your screen instantly makes sense!

About the Software

PLEASE READ BEFORE BUYING

Live Translate runs entirely on your own PC. There is no cloud - your graphics card does all the work. Please check these points before you buy:

Expect 1-3 seconds of delay on live captions. This is local AI, not a cloud service, so it is not instant.
It does not replace text inside games. Translations appear in a separate overlay or subtitle window, not painted over the game's own interface.
8 GB VRAM runs the small model. Translating while a demanding game is running realistically needs 12 GB or more.
About 40 GB of disk space. Every AI model ships with the app - nothing is downloaded later and nothing is streamed.
NVIDIA (CUDA) is the fastest. AMD and Intel cards work through Vulkan but are slower. Steam Deck is not supported.
If your PC is below the recommended specs, please wait rather than buy disappointed. Performance improves with every update.

NEW - Extract subtitles that are burned into the video

Some videos have subtitles baked permanently into the picture, with no subtitle file to load. Live Translate can now read them with AI OCR, turn them into a real subtitle file, translate them into any supported language, and export or burn them back into the video. It works even on videos with no audio track, it removes channel logos and site watermarks automatically, and you can scan just a section of a video instead of the whole file. Fully offline, real-time AI translation. Runs entirely on your own GPU. No cloud. No subscription. Buy once, own forever — every future update is free.

Real-Time Audio Translation

Capture system audio (games, movies, online meetings) or your microphone and watch the conversation appear translated on a customizable on-screen overlay. Powered by an on-device AI translation model with offline speech recognition through multiple interchangeable engines. The app auto-picks the best one for your source language.

Live translation overlay — drag, resize, recolor, set opacity and font
Speaker identification separates voices in multi-speaker dialogue
Precise Mode lets the AI clean up noisy speech-to-text before translating
140+ target languages, 28 user-interface languages
Smart cache — repeated phrases translate instantly

Screenshot Translation

Press a global hotkey to capture any region of your screen.

Inpaint mode — the original text is automatically removed and the translation is rendered in the exact same spot, matching the original layout
Legacy mode — original and translation shown side-by-side

Works on game UI, manga, scanned documents, signs, social media — anything on your screen.

Batch Image Translation

Drop an entire folder of images and translate them all at once. Designed for manga chapters, comic collections, scanned documents, and screenshot archives. Input and output folder selection, optional sub-folder scanning, side-by-side preview, per-file progress.

Video to Subtitles (Vid2Srt)

Drop any video file and Live Translate produces a polished SRT in your target language. The pipeline:

High-accuracy transcription with built-in hallucination filtering
Two-pass AI translation — per-segment first, then a full-script coherence review
Word-level diff highlighting shows exactly what the AI corrected
Reading-speed targeted segmentation (42 characters × 2 lines, broadcast standard)
Translate one transcription into multiple target languages without re-running speech recognition
Hard-burn into the video with GPU acceleration — NVIDIA NVENC, AMD AMF or Intel QuickSync auto-detected, with CPU fallback
Quality report after each run: coverage, average reading speed, gap detection

100% Offline and Private

No cloud APIs and no third-party AI service dependencies
No telemetry, no analytics, no account login, no required internet connection after install
Audio, prompts, images and translations never leave your device
Runs locally on your CPU and GPU
