Introduction
Linguist is a privacy-first browser translation extension for Chrome, Firefox, and other compatible browsers. It translates web pages, selected text, subtitles, messages, and custom input directly in the browser without switching between applications.
Unlike many translation extensions, Linguist is not tied to a single provider. Choose from built-in translation services, use offline translation on your device, connect your own APIs, or integrate custom translators and local machine translation systems.
Key features: offline translation for improved privacy, text-to-speech, translation history and personal dictionary, automatic translation rules, and custom modules for creating your own translators and speech services.
Linguist is free, open source, and does not collect or sell user data.
