OnType Translate


Chrome Web Store Firefox Add-ons

A browser extension for in‑place translation, using a hotkey to automatically translate newly typed text without leaving the keyboard. It reduces the natural delay of writing in a second language and keeps the message flow close to native. Useful for communicating with clients who speak other languages, participating in forums, running AI workflows where models perform better in a specific language. Integrates MyMemory (default), Google Translate, and DeepL.

Features

Hotkey translation

Translates newly typed text in place with a hotkey. Default: Ctrl+Shift+Y (Chrome and Firefox).

Languages and providers (MyMemory, Google, DeepL)

Select source/target languages and the translation provider.

Configurable shortcuts

Customize shortcuts in your browser settings. Toggle: Alt+L.

Undo last translation

Use Ctrl+Alt+Z to revert the last translation in the active field.
