Immersive Translate
Immersive Translate in 2026: a free bilingual web, PDF, and video translator, plus a paid Pro plan with premium AI engines and a 10,000-page document cap.
About Immersive Translate
What is Immersive Translate (2026 update)
Immersive Translate is a browser extension and app that translates webpages, PDFs, ebooks, images, subtitles, and video into a bilingual side-by-side or overlay view, so you read the original and the translation together instead of losing the source text. It supports over 100 languages and can route translations through engines like DeepL, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and DeepSeek.
What is new in 2026
- An AI reply function was added that can generate reply content directly on platforms like GitHub and Gmail.
- The AI Context setting moved into the popup panel, making it faster to adjust translation context without digging through menus.
- Support for the Qwen-MT translation service was added as another engine option.
- DeepL support expanded to include Thai, Vietnamese, and Hebrew.
- Global translation now works across any app on the system, not just the browser, so text can be translated without copying and pasting first.
- Real-time meeting translation for Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams continues to be a core 2026 use case, alongside video subtitle translation for YouTube and Netflix.
Key features
- Bilingual webpage translation that keeps the original text visible next to the translation.
- PDF and ebook translation that preserves layout.
- Video subtitle translation for platforms like YouTube and Netflix.
- Real-time meeting translation inside Zoom, Meet, and Teams.
- Image and manga translation.
- Choice of translation engine, including free machine engines and premium AI models on paid plans.
Pricing in 2026
Immersive Translate offers a genuinely usable free tier plus a paid Pro tier that raises quotas and unlocks premium AI translation engines. Third-party sources disagree on the exact current Pro price, some list roughly $6.90 to $9.99 per month depending on billing term and promotions, so confirm the exact rate on the official pricing page before buying.
| Plan | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | Webpage, PDF, ebook, and subtitle translation with a 1,000-page document translation cap and reasonable daily request limits |
| Pro | Check the official site for the current monthly and yearly rate | 10,000-page document translation limit (10x the free cap), access to premium engines like DeepL Pro, OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini, and higher daily quotas |
Who should use it
Immersive Translate suits people who read foreign-language sites, papers, or documents regularly and want the original and translation side by side instead of a full page swap. It also fits remote workers who join meetings across languages, since the real-time meeting translation covers Zoom, Meet, and Teams, and manga or subtitle readers who want an overlay rather than switching tabs to a separate translator. The free plan is enough for casual reading, while Pro makes sense for anyone hitting the document cap or who wants noticeably better translation quality from premium AI engines instead of the default machine translation.
Limitations and alternatives
Because translation quality depends on which engine you pick, results vary between the free machine engines and the premium AI models, and heavier document use will hit the free plan’s page cap quickly. Pricing also varies by source and promotion, so check the official site for the exact current cost before subscribing. Alternatives include:
- Trancy, a close competitor built around bilingual subtitles and language learning features.
- DeepL directly, if you mainly need standalone text and document translation without the browser overlay format.
- Google Translate, a free option for quick, simple translation needs without the bilingual reading layout.
