Our suggestion based on what it does, not a feature-by-feature comparison.
Make money with it
A freelancer could offer faster multilingual customer support or content drafting by dictating and translating in one step.
An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.
Ways a business could use it
- Dictate emails, notes and documents quickly instead of typing, or pay for a separate dictation subscription
- Write replies to overseas clients and colleagues in their own language without a separate translation tool
Can you use it commercially?
Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.
Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.
Getting it running
Download the macOS dmg or Windows installer, or run the one-line terminal install script, then choose a model on the engine page.
Follow the official instructions in the project README.
Things to check
- Translation and cloud modes need API keys from paid model providers
- Voice translation sends recordings or text to the chosen provider
- The README is mainly in Chinese, and the interface is geared towards Chinese providers
- Terminal install pipes a script from the web into the shell
