It sends no page text, selections, or translations to the developer or any translation server. PLaMo 3 Translate supports 53 languages in either direction. On Chrome, Chrome's built-in Translator API is used for 11 further languages that PLaMo does not support, while Firefox uses PLaMo only. The extension also translates text as you type and has a standalone typed-text translator page. The project code is under the MIT license, and the model is under PFN's PLaMo Community License. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
