Flying Comment Translate AI

Display YouTube live chat like 'Flying Comments' with AI translation and summarization.

Flying Comment Translate AI is a Chrome extension that translates YouTube Live and Twitch chats in real-time using Google's latest AI, "Gemini", and displays them as flowing comments floating directly across the video screen. Even if you don't need the translation feature, you can use it completely for free simply as a stylish flowing comment display. * This extension operates extremely efficiently. It randomly positions comments directly within your browser without relying on any external positioning servers (overlapping is not restricted). * The translation feature optimizes your API requests by gathering comments over a specified time interval and translating them all in one batch. [What's New in v1.4.3] 💬 Minor link fix ⚙️ Usability Improvements & Bug Fixes Added a quick ON/OFF toggle for the "Chat Post Translator" directly in the extension's popup menu for easier access. Fixed a bug where settings like "Show Translated Comments Only" did not sync immediately between the popup menu and the advanced options page. 💡 How to Hide the Panel The Chat Post Translator is enabled by default. If you prefer not to see it, you can hide it by: ・Clicking the "-" button on the top right of the panel to minimize it. ・Clicking the extension icon and turning OFF the "Chat Post Translator" toggle in the popup menu. ・Turning it OFF in the advanced settings page. 🚀 Key Features ■ Flowing Comment Display Enjoy the stream and the chat simultaneously with zero eye movement on both YouTube and Twitch. You can freely customize the font size, opacity, and flow speed. ■ AI Translation (Internet Slang Supported) Powered by Google's latest AI, "Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite". It naturally translates internet slang and gamer terms based on context (e.g., properly translating terms like "lol" or "POG" into natural equivalents in your target language). ■ Summarization Feature (Beta) When the chat is moving too fast with massive amounts of comments, the AI will automatically summarize the content and display it for you. 💳 How to Use (Choose from 2 Options) ① Patreon Membership (Recommended / Best for Beginners) No need to acquire or configure complicated API keys. Simply log in with your Patreon account and you are ready to go! | Plan | Price/Mo | Limit/Mo | Est.

Using standard Flash or Pro models carries a high risk of incurring charges of tens to hundreds of dollars in a very short time. Use at your own risk. ⚙️ Customization Settings You can easily tweak the settings to your liking via the extension popup or the options page: ・API Request Interval: Adjust the translation frequency between 1 to 10 seconds. ・Cost Management: Save API usage by setting "Minimum/Maximum character length" for comments to be translated. ・Display Settings: Font size, opacity, flow speed, original text color, and translated text color. ・Live Preview: Instantly see how your setting changes will look on screen. ⚠️ Disclaimer ・This extension is an unofficial tool developed by an individual. It is not affiliated with, nor endorsed by, YouTube or Twitch. ・Due to the nature of AI models, we cannot 100% guarantee the accuracy of translations. ・When using your own API key: NEVER share your key with anyone (it is highly sensitive information, equivalent to a credit card). ・Temporary delays or limits may occur depending on API usage quotas or Google Cloud's server constraints. 【Important Notice Regarding API Request Limits】 This service utilizes Google's latest AI via API. While we strive to provide a stable service, please be aware of the following: * Temporary Restrictions: Due to a rapid increase in users or concentrated access during peak times, we may reach the AI model's "maximum requests per minute" limit. * Behavior During Restrictions: If the limit is reached, translation/summarization processes may be temporarily skipped, resulting in comments being displayed in their original language or experiencing a slight delay. * Resolution: When limits are reached, we promptly apply to Google for a quota increase; however, the review and reflection process may take several days to weeks. * Liability: We cannot offer refunds for temporary degradation of service quality caused by such infrastructure constraints. 🔒 Data Handling & Privacy 【When Using Patreon Membership】 Translation requests are routed through the developer's Cloudflare Worker. Only your session token and usage count are stored for plan management purposes. We do NOT store any of your personal information. 【When Using Your Own API Key】 All data is processed directly between your browser and Google's servers. Your API key and chat data are NEVER sent to or stored by the developer or any third parties. We will continue to improve this extension based on your feedback!
