Now translating diagrams, tables & technical figures

The technical books machine translation can’t read —
diagrams and all.

Manuals, textbooks, and specs are full of labelled diagrams, tables, and figures that ordinary translation quietly drops. BabelPage translates the labels inside every diagram and rebuilds the page faithfully — in any language pair the AI understands, in either direction.

How it works

Four steps from scan to finished book

Scan on your phone; review, reorder, and export from your laptop.

01

Scan

Capture pages with the mobile scanner, or upload existing images.

02

Read the layout

Google Vision extracts text and structure exactly as laid out.

03

Claude translates

Prose, tables, and the labels inside diagrams — translated in context, with your glossary.

04

Export

Download a merged, page-faithful PDF you can hand to anyone.

Why BabelPage

The hard part, handled

Machine translation loses the diagrams. We translate them — and keep the whole page.

Diagram & figure translation

The part other tools skip: labels inside circuit diagrams, schematics, and figures — translated in place and re-fitted to the artwork. The BabelPage difference

Layout-preserving

Paragraphs, tables, captions, and page numbers land exactly where the source put them.

Any language, either way

Japanese → English, English → German, or any pair the AI understands. Set the source and target per project.

Claude refinement

Every page gets a second, context-aware pass so technical terminology stays consistent. Scale plan

Glossary & review

Pin a term once and it holds across the whole book; every page is quality-scored and flagged if it needs a look.

Export & share

Merge to a single faithful PDF or share a read-only link with a colleague.

The moat, live

Watch a diagram translate — labels and all.

Ordinary translation leaves the figure in the source language. BabelPage reads the labels inside the diagram and rewrites them in place. Flip it:

Not just translation

A scanner you’ll use every day

Even when you’re not translating a thing. Free to start.

2-up · ID cards
2-up capture

Shoot an ID card front & back, or two business cards, in one frame — split into clean pages automatically.

Auto-order

Detects the page number on each scan and sorts a shuffled stack back into reading order.

Combine & merge

Fold front/back into one, and a whole stack into a single tidy PDF.

Big batches, safely

100-page sessions that survive a crash — nothing lost mid-scan.

Your scans are yours — private by default, and deleted when you say so.
Who it’s for

Built for the pages that matter

Engineers

Vendor manuals & specs

Hand your team a foreign-language equipment manual they can actually read — schematics, tables, and callouts included.

Students & researchers

Textbooks & papers

Work through a foreign-language textbook with the figures, equations, and captions kept exactly in place.

Everyone

Everyday documents

Scan IDs, receipts, business cards, and handouts — merge, organize, search, and share in seconds.

One recognizable page treatment — from the original scan to the finished, translated edition.

The book is always the subject. Faithful pages, diagrams that read in the new language, accurate technical terms, and a result you can hand to someone else without a second thought.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What counts as a scan vs a translation?

A scan is one captured, OCR’d page — cheap, and included generously on every plan. A translation is a page rendered into your target language, which uses the AI, so it’s metered more tightly. You can scan all day and only translate the pages you need.

Which languages does it support?

Any pair the AI understands — Japanese, Chinese, German, English and many more — in either direction. You set the source and target per project, including English into other languages.

Does it really translate diagrams?

Yes — this is the part other tools skip. Labels inside schematics, circuit diagrams, and figures are translated in place and re-fitted to the artwork, so the diagram reads in the new language.

How faithful is the layout?

Paragraphs, tables, captions, and page numbers stay where the source put them. You get a page-for-page PDF you can cite — not a wall of text.

Can I just use it as a scanner?

Absolutely — that’s what Free and Everyday are for. Scan, organize, and share; translate only when you need to.

Is my data private?

Your scans are yours — private by default and deleted when you remove them. We don’t sell or share your documents.

Help, the moment you need it

A full help center — and Babel, when you’d rather just ask.

Inside your workspace, Babel answers questions about scanning, glossaries, exporting, and billing — sourced straight from the docs.

How do I scan a two-page spread?
Use 2-up mode in the scanner — it splits the spread into two pages automatically. Want the steps?
