TransMonkey review

AI translation for documents, images and video

ToolSift score5.5/10

Why 5.5/10: A real, broad translator with clear credit pricing and one-off packs as well as subscriptions, minus points for conflicting refund terms, a privacy notice that doesn't match its use of outside AI models, recycled testimonials and very few independent reviews.

Our verdict

Web-based AI translator for documents, images, video and text, with Chrome, Google Workspace and YouTube add-ons. The vendor says it keeps document layouts, swaps text in images, and does subtitles and dubbing in 130+ languages using models such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Whisper. Credit pricing is simple (1 credit = 1 video minute, 1 image or 500 document characters), and one-off packs suit occasional use. Treat output as a draft and get legal or customer-facing translations checked by a human.

✅ Pick it if
You need occasional layout-preserving translation of PDFs, slides, images or video subtitles in one place and prefer one-off credit packs over a big subscription.
⛔ Skip it if
You translate confidential or regulated material, need certified or professional-grade translation, or want a large free tier.

Pricing: Pay as you go (one-off): 50 credits $6.00, 150 credits $12.00, 800 credits $39.00, 2,000 credits $69.00, 4,000 credits $99.00 USD. Pro Monthly $12.0 USD/month; Pro Yearly $99 USD billed yearly (shown as $8.3 USD/month), each with 500 credits a month. 1 credit = 1 video minute, 1 image or 500 document characters.
