Overview

Turn every foreign-language read into knowledge you can keep using

Read foreign-language webpages without constantly switching between translation websites, bookmarks, dictionaries, and vocabulary apps. ParallelText turns the webpage you are viewing into an AI-powered bilingual reading workspace. It displays the original text and translation together, helping you understand foreign-language articles, technical documentation, research materials, news, and other web content while staying focused on the page. KEY FEATURES - AI-powered bilingual webpage translation Read the original content and translation together without replacing or leaving the current webpage. You can also switch to translation-only mode when you prefer a cleaner reading experience. - Multicolor sentence-by-sentence reading The distinctive multicolor sentence mode uses color-coded sentence segments to make the relationship between the original text and translation easier to follow, especially in long or complex paragraphs. - Visual and color accessibility controls Customize original-text and translation styles to match your reading preferences. Red and green color-adaptation modes change translation colors to more distinguishable blue or orange alternatives, improving readability for users with different color-vision needs. - Translate pages, selections, and hovered text Translate an entire webpage, selected words or sentences, or text under the mouse pointer. Translation can be opened from the webpage, right-click menu, side panel, popup translation box, independent window, or configurable keyboard shortcuts. - Multiple AI translation engines Use built-in translation services such as Qwen and DeepSeek, access additional engines available with Pro, or configure your own compatible API provider. Source languages can be detected automatically, and translation behavior can be adjusted for different websites and types of content. - AI dictionary, pronunciation, and examples Look up words without leaving the page. View dictionary information, AI-generated explanations and examples where available, and use text-to-speech to hear selected words, original text, or translations. - Vocabulary collection and review Save useful words together with their translation and original context. Previously saved vocabulary can be highlighted while you browse, helping you recognize and review words in real webpages. - Article favorites and translation history Save important webpages, translations, titles, addresses, tags, and reading context so that useful information does not disappear after you close the page. - Personal and website-specific glossaries Create terminology lists for frequently used or professional terms. Global glossaries can apply across websites, while website-specific glossaries help maintain consistent terminology on domains such as research, technical, or industry websites. - Export your vocabulary Export saved vocabulary as CSV. Pro users can also export formats suitable for Anki or Markdown, making it easier to continue studying or organize notes in other tools. - Reading statistics and weekly reports Review translation activity, newly saved vocabulary, favorite articles, reading trends, and AI-generated reading keywords where available. - Cross-device access After signing in, supported reading records can be saved to your account. Pro synchronization keeps vocabulary, translation history, and favorites available across supported devices. - Flexible reading controls Choose scrolling translation or immediate full-page translation, adjust translation timing and text-length rules, translate page titles, reorder translation engines, configure page-specific rules, and customize original-text and translation styles. FREE AND OPTIONAL PRO FEATURES The free version includes bilingual webpage translation, selected-text translation, built-in Qwen and DeepSeek translation, basic glossaries, vocabulary, favorites, translation history, and CSV export within the displayed free limits. Optional Pro membership provides higher or expanded saving limits, OpenAI translation, AI dictionary features, additional glossary capacity, advanced exports, reading trends, and other Pro capabilities shown in the extension. Users can also configure their own supported API key according to the selected provider's terms and charges. PRIVACY AND DATA USE Online translation, dictionary, AI classification, and pronunciation features may send the text required for the requested function to the selected service provider. When users choose to save or synchronize reading records, the relevant text, translation, page title, address, tags, and context may be stored with their account. Translation preferences, visual settings, and custom API configuration are stored locally in the browser unless a related synchronization feature is enabled. Please review the ParallelText Privacy Policy for full details. ParallelText helps you read foreign-language content, see it more clearly, and turn every translation into knowledge you can continue using.
