TranslateImage: AI Image Translation That Preserves Layout

TranslateImage (https://translateimage.io) translates the text inside images — manga pages, product screenshots, scanned documents, UI mockups — into 130+ languages while keeping fonts, layout and visual context intact. Upload an image, pick a target language, and a translated version comes back in seconds.

The pipeline

Three stages run in sequence. First, a detection model finds every text region, including vertical Japanese typesetting and text baked into artwork. Second, a contextual neural translation pass renders each region — the model sees surrounding panels or UI elements so terminology stays consistent. Third, inpainting models erase the original text and redraw the translation with matched font, size and color. The result looks typeset, not pasted.

Manga workflow

For raw chapters the workflow is built for volume: upload a chapter, and TranslateImage returns typeset pages with speech bubbles cleaned and refilled in the target language. Teams that previously spent hours per chapter on manual typesetting use the batch API to process entire volumes, with per-page review before export.

Localization teams

Product and marketing teams use translateimage.io to localize app screenshots, store listings and ad creative for new markets. Google Lens can translate but cannot preserve layout or edit the source pixels; TranslateImage does both, which is why agencies keep it in the delivery pipeline for multilingual campaigns.

Getting started

The first translations are free to run, and the 130-language demo is at https://translateimage.io. Batch processing and API access cover the team-scale cases where dozens or hundreds of images need the same treatment in one pass.
