Frequently asked

Can Translify translate any English book to Japanese?
Yes — Translify works with any PDF or EPUB up to 200 MB. We rebuild every page in Japanese while preserving the original layout, including English's native script. Novels, textbooks, papers, manga, and children's books are all supported.
Does the Japanese translation preserve the book's layout?
Yes. Tables stay tables, headings stay headings, images stay where they were. A side-by-side mode lets you see the original English and the Japanese translation simultaneously.
Can I ask the book questions in Japanese?
Yes. Translify includes a built-in chat that uses the whole book as context. Ask anything in Japanese, get an answer with the exact English or Japanese passage cited, including page number.
How accurate is English → Japanese translation in Translify?
Translify uses Claude (Anthropic) and DeepL — currently the two highest-rated engines for English ↔ Japanese translation quality, particularly for nuance, idiom, and long-context coherence. For technical or literary works, accuracy is suitable for study and comprehension.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — every plan starts with a 14-day trial, plus a 30-day money-back guarantee on every paid plan. No questions asked.
What's the difference between Translify and Google Translate for English books?
Google Translate translates text snippets. Translify translates the whole book while preserving layout, then lets you chat with it, highlight passages for AI explanations, and quiz yourself. It's a study tool, not a translation utility.
