NextAI Translator is a browser extension and desktop application that uses the ChatGPT API (OpenAI's AI service) to translate text between languages. Select any text on a webpage, and it instantly translates it, but it goes beyond simple word-for-word translation. It offers three modes: translation (converting text to another language), polishing (improving the phrasing and style of text you've written), and summarization (condensing long text into key points). It supports 55 languages for all three modes and uses streaming mode to display results as they appear, which feels much faster than waiting for a full response. It also includes text-to-speech so you can hear pronunciations, screenshot translation (translate text in images), vocabulary books with AI-generated memory aids, and one-click copying of results. You can bring your own API key from OpenAI, Azure OpenAI Service, or other supported providers, the app doesn't charge a subscription itself, it just passes your requests to whichever LLM provider you've configured. You'd use this if you frequently encounter foreign-language content while browsing, want to polish your own writing in real-time, or need quick text summaries. It works as a Chrome or Firefox extension and as a standalone desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Note: the project was renamed from its original name to NextAI Translator after receiving a trademark warning from OpenAI. Built in TypeScript and Rust.
