Hello everyone! The creator of imgtranslate here. Happy to discuss anything on tech and product. The current stack uses a good dose of traditional(OpenCV) and neural implementations. And we're actively pursuing LSPs(Language Service Providers) and marketing agencies to try it out.

How are you going to compete with Google Translate?

[hbornfree]

By integrating the tool to professional CAT tools we're guessing. Businesses almost always never buy machine translated output

Interesting, I can have an LSP try this. So, if it's not OCR, what is it? What is it doing?

[hbornfree]

It does OCR ofcourse. Pipeline is roughly:

OCR -> Text property identification -> Inpainting -> Region averaging -> Translation -> Fitting

Please have the LSP try it out and see if offers some value.

Great stuff, congrats!

Just a small (but important because is the hero image) correction from a spanish native speaker: the earth is female, so it should be "Hay que protegerla", ending in "a".

Thank you for the feedback! Will fix it right away
