Frequently asked
The questions that come up most often, about offline capability, quota and data.
What actually works with no connection?
Lookups, translation memory, full-sentence translation with any offline model you've installed, Chinese variant conversion, and your history — all of it. Only the AI layer needs the network.
How large are the offline models?
A single-direction model is 37–79MB; the multilingual one covering every direction is about 497MB. All downloaded on demand, so anything you don't install takes no space.
How much does the free tier give me?
The offline capability is entirely free and unmetered. AI translation has a daily character allowance — the pricing page reads that number straight from the server, so it's always current.
Is my text uploaded?
Not by the offline layers. Only sentences that reach the AI layer are sent, and those are labelled in the results — so you can see which content left the machine.
Do I need my own API key?
No. AI is provided by the server, and the app stores no keys of any kind.
What if I switch computers?
Translation memory, glossaries and word lists export to a file and import back. We don't do cloud sync — nothing uploaded means nothing to leak, and the cost is moving it across yourself.
Which languages are supported?
Ten interface languages. Lookups cover 72 directions, including Cantonese and regional Chinese vocabulary. Full-sentence translation depends on which models you've installed.
Why not a browser extension?
An extension depends on the network and lives inside the browser. This is a desktop app: select text in any program and translate it, connection or not.
Ready?
The free tier gives you offline dictionaries and translation memory without an account.
