An open-source AI-powered language learning extension for browsers.
Supports immersive translation, article analysis, multiple AI models, and more.
Master languages effortlessly and deeply with AI, right in your browser.
Read Frog's vision is to provide an easy-to-use, intelligent, and personalized language learning experience for language learners of all levels. This has become possible in the AI era, but there are few products on the market that meet this demand. Therefore, we decided to take matters into our own hands and ultimately make the world no longer reliant on human language instructors.
Whether you are a user or a developer, Read Frog will be an important part of your journey toward this vision. Please be aware that Read Frog is currently under active development, and feedback is welcome for any issues encountered.
Turn selected text into reusable AI tools that match the way you read and learn. Define your own prompts and structured output fields, choose a provider, model, and icon, then run the action directly from the selection toolbar for dictionary lookups, rewriting, summaries, explanations, or any workflow you design.
Start with the built-in Dictionary and Improve Writing templates, or build an action from scratch. Structured results can also be mapped and saved to Notebase for later study.
Save vocabulary, definitions, example sentences, translations, and reading notes to Notebase, then turn them into flashcards with customizable card templates. Content you discover while reading becomes study material without interrupting your flow.
Review due cards online and rate each one Again, Hard, Good, or Easy. Read Frog's spaced-repetition scheduler uses your feedback to decide when each card should appear again—right before you are likely to forget it.
Switch seamlessly between two translation display modes. Bilingual mode shows the original text alongside its translation, perfect for learning and comparison. Translation-only mode replaces the original text entirely for a cleaner reading experience.
The extension automatically re-translates all visible content when you switch modes while translation is active, ensuring a smooth transition without needing to refresh the page.
Select any text on a webpage to reveal a smart toolbar with powerful options. Translate streams the translation in real-time. Explain provides detailed explanations tailored to your language level. Speak reads the text aloud using text-to-speech.
The toolbar intelligently positions itself to stay within the viewport, supports drag interactions, and works across all websites. Perfect for quick lookups while reading.
Enable AI to understand the full context of what you're reading. When activated, Read Frog extracts the page title and a concise Markdown version of the page content, providing this context to the AI for more accurate, contextually-appropriate translations.
This means technical terms get translated correctly within their domain, literary expressions maintain their nuance, and ambiguous phrases are interpreted based on the surrounding content rather than in isolation.
Translate YouTube subtitles directly in the video player. Watch foreign language content with translations displayed alongside the original subtitles, making video content accessible for language learning.
Listen to any selected text with high-quality AI voices. Powered by Edge TTS — completely free, with 150+ voices across 80+ languages including Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, and many more. Adjust rate, pitch, and volume to your preference.
Automatic language detection (basic or LLM-powered) with per-language voice mapping ensures the right voice for every language. Smart sentence-aware chunking handles long text by splitting at natural boundaries and prefetching the next chunk for seamless playback. Perfect for pronunciation practice and auditory learning.
Save up to 70% on API costs with intelligent request batching. Read Frog groups multiple translation requests into single API calls, reducing overhead and token usage while maintaining translation quality.
The system includes smart retry logic with exponential backoff and automatic fallback to individual requests if batch processing fails. All handled transparently in the background.
Connect to 20+ AI providers through Vercel AI SDK: OpenAI, DeepSeek, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, xAI Grok, Groq, Mistral, Ollama, and many more. Configure custom endpoints, API keys, and model settings for each provider.
Plus free translation options: Google Translate, Microsoft Translate, and DeepLX for cost-free basic translations.

怎么让它跑起来？从 Chrome 网上应用店、Microsoft Edge 加载项或 Firefox 附加组件商店安装（Chrome 也有国内镜像），然后在扩展设置中配置一个 AI 提供商。
使用它需要 AI 提供商的 API 密钥吗？你需要使用自己的 API 密钥，连接 20 多家受支持的 AI 提供商中的至少一家（OpenAI、DeepSeek、Anthropic Claude、Google Gemini、Grok、Groq、Mistral、Ollama 等）；不过 Google 翻译、微软翻译和 DeepLX 等免费选项无需密钥也可使用。
