Manual Translation

How to Generate and Save an AI Translation from the Manual Translation Tool?

Written guide 1 min read Intermediate

You can now generate an AI translation directly inside the Manual Translation editor, review it, and save it — without switching to AI translation tools.


What it does

Each entry’s More menu now has a Preview AI Translation action that drops an AI draft into the editable box. Review the draft, then click Save to apply it. If the box already has text, a confirmation asks before replacing it.


Where to find it

  1. Go to Manual Translation and open an entry.
  2. Click the More button.
  3. Select Preview AI Translation.
Preview AI Translation option in the More menu of the Manual Translation editor

The AI draft appears in the editable box. Review it, then click Save to publish the translation.
