About MangaTranslate
MangaTranslate provides an enterprise manga translation reader. Individuals translate many pages at once and choose their own translation style. Studios automate their workflow with an online Photoshop-style editor and an API. The service supports all languages.
What MangaTranslate does
- Text detection and typesetting
- Detects dialogue in uploaded pages, removes the original lettering and places the translated text back on the image.
- Studio editor
- Translated pages open in a browser editor where you can correct dialogue, move text boxes and adjust fonts, size and spacing.
- Batch uploads
- Many pages go into one task with progress for each image, in JPG, PNG, WEBP, AVIF, PDF, ZIP or TAR files up to 15MB per page.
- Translation API
- Businesses use an API key to submit image batches, check task status and query credits, with Python and cURL examples.
Who it’s for
Readers, translators and localization teams who want manga, manhwa or comic pages machine-translated with editable text. Skip it if you need publication-ready human translation, since the site says users should review names, sound effects and stylized text.
