TransOne
Translate anything on your Mac, right from the menu bar
TransOne is a native macOS menu-bar translator. Translate by typing, selecting text, or grabbing a screenshot, with 14 engines ranging from Apple's on-device translator and DeepL to Google, Tencent, OpenAI, and local models like Ollama. The same window also handles text recognition, speech, dictionary, and encyclopedia lookups. Always sandboxed, zero third-party dependencies, Mac App Store only. Your text goes only to the engine you pick.
Hi everyone 👋
I built TransOne because every translator I tried made me break my flow: switch apps, paste text, wait on a cloud round trip I didn't always want.
So I made it live in the menu bar and work three ways: type it, select it, or screenshot it. Then I added a choice most tools don't give you, 14 translation engines side by side. Want fully offline and private? Use Apple's on-device translator or a local model like Ollama. Want a specific provider? DeepL, Google, Tencent, OpenAI, and more are one click away, and your text only ever goes to the engine you choose.
It's a native SwiftUI app, always sandboxed, with zero third-party dependencies. Text recognition, speech, dictionary, and encyclopedia lookups are built into the same window.
Would love your feedback on which engines you'd want next. Reach me anytime at [email protected].
