A pane of clarity on every frame.

Drag a rectangle on any web page. PaneTrans pins a glass popup with live translation that updates the moment the text changes — live chat, video subtitles, ticker text, anywhere.

All translation runs locally on your machine. No cloud. No API keys. Nothing leaves your browser.

What PaneTrans actually does

Drag-select overlay
01

Drag, then watch.

Right-click anywhere → Translate Region → drag a rectangle. A draggable popup shows the original and the translation side-by-side. No menu hunting, no extra clicks — the gesture is the entire UI.

Live region popup
02

It keeps watching.

A MutationObserver tracks the rectangle. Live chat lines, subtitle changes, ticker updates — the popup retranslates automatically. Like sticking a real-time subtitle strip onto any slice of the page.
