A translation support tool built by a working translator
Tired of losing my flow, I built this desktop app. Use global shortcuts to capture your screen or read copied text and get instant translation suggestions with explanations.

Right when you need it, right where you are
TransBuddy helps you translate in any app on your screen. Close the window and it stays in the tray—summon it anytime with a global shortcut.
AI-powered translation suggestions
Copying the text or image, opening a browser, pasting into an AI site, prompting, waiting — doing that every time got old fast, so I built this.
Screen capture
Capture any area of your screen with a global shortcut and translate it.
Clipboard capture
Translate copied clipboard text right away with a global shortcut.
Direct input
Open an input box with a global shortcut and type your source text to translate.
Deep search
When you're translating a series, there's always that moment: "Wait, what did I call this word—or sentence?" Digging through volume after volume every time got tedious, so I built this.
Auto input
Numbering pages by hand, hunting down special characters one at a time — that got tedious too, so I built this.
