    Features

    Built for comics, not documents

    SnowMTL is tuned for panels, bubbles, and reading order — the things generic OCR translators get wrong.

    Free multi-provider translation

    LibreTranslate, MyMemory, Lingva, and more — with automatic fallback when one provider is busy.

    Smart caching

    Repeated translations are served from a 24-hour cache so you stay fast and reduce provider load.

    14 languages

    English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Hindi, Urdu, Arabic, and Turkish.

    Image + text tools

    Paste dialogue or upload a page. Image OCR uses free Tesseract when available on your server.

    No paid plans

    SnowMTL is free. No credit card, no Pro upsell — just a fair daily allowance for everyone.

    Manga, manhwa & webtoons

    Built for comics readers: bubbles, captions, and page uploads in one simple workflow.

    What people say about SnowMTL

    Trusted by fans and editors who need bubble-aware translation — not generic document OCR.

    “We dropped a manhwa chapter and the reading order finally made sense. Bubbles stayed coherent instead of scrambling like every OCR tool we tried.”
    Mina Park Scanlation editor
    “I use the free daily limit to keep up with French releases. The text tool is perfect when I already have dialogue extracted.”
    Julien Moreau Weekly webtoon reader
    “SnowMTL cuts our first-pass time dramatically. We still proofread, but free providers get speech bubbles into the right language in seconds.”
    Aisha Rahman Localization lead
