LayerAI
Local-first web translation you finalize and reuse
LayerAI is a local-first Chrome extension for web translation: collect text, batch AI draft, finalize yourself, then auto-apply confirmed translations on revisit. Unlike one-shot page translators, you keep editable translation assets, glossary control, a background queue for large sites, and BYOK / local Ollama — so terminology and privacy stay under your control.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built LayerAI because I kept re-translating the same docs and admin pages. Existing browser translators re-ran every visit and left me with output I couldn’t really own or reuse.
So the workflow became: collect what matters → AI drafts in batch → I finalize line by line → reopen and confirmed translations auto-apply.
It’s local-first (BYOK / local Ollama supported). Glossary, background queue, and JSON import/export are there for larger sites. Cloud sync stays optional.
Would love feedback from anyone who localizes docs, SaaS admin UIs, or internal tools.

The editable translation assets with glossary control are a really thoughtful choice, finally someone gets that translators need to own their terminology instead of trusting a black box each time.
the way you keep the translation assets editable and let people own their glossary is genuinely smart. most translators treat it like a fire and forget thing but this feels closer to how translators actually work on big sites.
love the editable glossary and batch workflow, super useful for translating docs with consistent terminology. one thing that would help a lot: a diff view before applying, so i can see exactly which strings changed and quickly catch any hallucinations from the ai draft before they go live on revisit
Love that it keeps my edits for next time instead of re-translating the same UI strings on every visit. The local Ollama option is a big plus for the docs I work with.
