About Comic Translator
Comic Translator is a hosted service that translates comics into other languages automatically. It reads the text in comic images with OCR, translates it, and replaces it within the original artwork, so raw manga, manhwa and manhua can be read in the reader's own language.
It can be used by uploading images on the web, or through browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox and mobile apps for Android and iOS. One click translates all comic images on a webpage, and a frame-translate mode captures content from the screen on sites that block image access. It supports JPG, PNG and WebP, and translated images can be downloaded for offline reading.
Comic Translator is a proprietary product that supports more than 160 languages. A plans and pricing page is linked from the site, though plan details are not confirmed here.
