Lingivio Compared With Immersive Translate
A browser extension that translates web pages and PDFs bilingually, in place.
Competitor facts on this page were last checked 61 days ago. They are re-checked at least every 90 days.
What Immersive Translate Does Better
Live web-page translation, which we do not do at all, and a very good bilingual PDF reading experience. For reading the web in another language it is the better tool.
Where We Differ
We are a file pipeline rather than a reader: Office formats, formula preservation, and an API you can call from your own software.
Feature by Feature
| Feature | Lingivio | Immersive Translate |
|---|---|---|
| xlsx formulas survive | Yes — only text is rewritten; formulas are copied through untouched | No xlsx Checked against the vendor's own published information |
| PDF layout fidelity | High, plus a side-by-side mode | High, but PDF only Checked against the vendor's own published information |
| Bilingual-cell / multi-language source control | Yes | No Checked against the vendor's own published information |
| CJK and right-to-left output | Word, Excel, PowerPoint and text formats; not PDF or images yet | Yes Checked against the vendor's own published information |
| Price for 25 document pages a month | $10 a month on Starter: 25 credits. Covers Word, text PDF, HTML, Markdown and plain text; spreadsheets, slides, subtitles, scans and images need a higher plan. | About $8 a month, less than our entry plan, but PDF only: it cannot translate the Word files this price covers here. Checked against the vendor's own published information |
We have not checked this against the vendor's own material, so we do not state it. An empty cell here is an admission, not a verdict.
How to Check This Yourself
Our side of every row is derived from the product itself: the target-language matrix is the same module the API validates a job against, so this page cannot claim a combination the API would refuse. The competitor side is taken from that vendor's own published pricing and product information, and re-checked at least every 90 days.
We publish a real before and after from our own engine, produced from the same sample file every time. We deliberately do not publish a competitor's output of the same file: we have no licence to redistribute their result, and a screenshot we produced of someone else's product is not evidence you can check. Run the same file through both and compare — that is the honest version of a side-by-side.
Immersive Translate is a trademark of its owner, named here to identify the product being compared. There is no affiliation and no endorsement.
What It Would Cost Here
Enter the credits you use in a month. The plans are read live from the same catalog checkout charges from, so nothing here can drift from what you would actually pay.

No card and no per-file character minimum. If a segment cannot be translated confidently you will see it fall back, rather than a green tick over a guess.
