SwiftIn vs Lara Translate

Both translate any webpage. The split: SwiftIn adds bilingual reading, input translation, tone control, and AI text-to-speech — the writing half plus the learning half on top of the reading half.

Why SwiftIn

Bilingual reading on every page

SwiftIn ships immersive bilingual side-by-side mode where the original and translation are both visible, plus translation-only mode that replaces the original in place. Switch between them with one click. Useful for language learning, verifying tricky terms, and reading dense technical docs where the original wording matters.

Type-as-you-go input translation

Type your reply in your own language in any input field across the open web — chat compose boxes, email bodies, social feeds, forms, Upwork proposals — and Input Translation updates the field in place with the translated version. No copy-paste, no second tab.

Three tone styles with intensity

Normal, Slang, and Business styles each with Min and Max intensity. A casual Discord reply lands differently than a polite client email; tone styles let you match the register without rewriting your draft. Unlocked on Pro and Team plans.

AI text-to-speech in 70 languages

Listen to any translation in 70+ languages with AI-generated voices. Useful for hearing pronunciation while reading, listening to a long client brief while you sketch, or verifying how a message will sound before you send.

Free tier without daily caps

SwiftIn Free includes 200,000 AI tokens per month plus unlimited Google and Bing translation across all four core features. No daily-use cap, no upgrade wall when the AI quota runs out — the extension routes through the free fallback engines and keeps working.

Privacy-by-default

Translations are not stored on the server unless you opt in for history. Free has no server-side history at all; Pro and Team have history as an opt-in toggle. For sensitive medical, legal, or NDA-bound text, the no-history default keeps the surface clean. See the full privacy explainer for what “not stored” means in detail.
