Snap Translate — Instant Selection Translator

Select text on any web page to see the original and its translation in the side panel. Uses Chrome's on-device AI - free, private.

Snap Translate translates any text you drag-select on a web page and shows it right in the side panel — no need to open a separate tab or tool. Key features • Auto-detect the source language + set up to 2 target languages at once • "Sentence-by-sentence" mode: select multiple sentences and see each one's original text next to its translation • "Copy all" button: copies the whole result in the order shown — original, translation 1, then translation 2 in full-text mode, or original sentence / translated sentence alternating in sentence-by-sentence mode • Translations keep the line breaks and paragraph structure of the original text • Listen buttons (TTS) to hear the original text and the translation read aloud • Save as a portrait A4 PDF with real, selectable text — opens a print tab, so choose "Save as PDF" as the destination. Long results are split across multiple pages automatically • Translation runs on Chrome's built-in on-device AI (Translator API) — the text you select is never sent to an external server • Side panel stays open while you keep selecting text on the page • Automatic light/dark theme • The extension's own interface is available in English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified), Spanish, French, German, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Vietnamese, Thai, and Hindi, following your browser's language setting Why install it Most translation tools force you to leave the page you're reading — copy the text, switch tabs, paste it, then switch back. Snap Translate skips all of that: just drag-select, and the translation appears next to the page you're already on, in a side panel that stays open as you keep reading. It runs entirely on Chrome's built-in on-device AI, so nothing you select is ever sent to a server — it works offline once the language model is downloaded, and it's genuinely private by design, not just by policy. Free and Pro — both free • Free: up to 5,000 translated sentences a day. Every feature is unlocked — sentence-by-sentence mode, listening (TTS), PDF export, copy all • Pro: no daily limit • Pro is free too. Create an account at ambleworks.com, verify your email, and copy your permanent license key from "My key" on the site. Paste it into the extension to unlock Pro. No payment, no subscription, no expiry. The extension itself never asks you to sign in — only the key you paste is checked. Requirements • Chrome 138 or later (needs the built-in Translator/LanguageDetapi API) • The language model is downloaded once on first use (tens of MB, with a progress indicator) • Availability of Chrome's built-in AI can also depend on your device and region
