# tradutor de mangá com IA Review Credit-based AI manga translator from Ficory LLC, built for batch page processing and professional balloon editing across multiple ## Editor's Score: 66/100 Capability lands at 19 because the end-to-end pipeline (OCR, LLM translation, inpainting, retypesetting, batch processing, online editor, and API) is genuinely more complete than most personal-reading translators, though the tool-specific credit-per-model opacity makes it hard to predict output quality or cost at scale. Ease of use scores 17 because the browser-based workflow is accessible and requires no software install, but the absence of a disclosed daily free credit amount and the lack of a clear per-page cost table create real friction for new users trying to evaluate the tool before paying. Value scores 15 because the cheapest entry point is $4.99 for 1,100 credits with no clarity on how many pages that actually covers, the daily check-in is too thin to count as a real free tier, and the credit model punishes high-volume users compared to flat-rate competitors. Delivery scores 15 because the product appears to function as described, but the lack of any confirmed social presence, the absence of public user reviews in search results, and the undisclosed credit consumption rates make it difficult to verify delivery claims independently, which is a real trust gap for a paid professional tool. ## Pros - Full pipeline in one browser session: OCR, LLM translation, text removal, background repair, and retypesetting without any desktop software. - Tiered credit system with no expiry on one-time packs, so studios that translate in bursts pay only for what they use rather than a recurring seat fee. - API access for production pipelines, plus a Photoshop-style online editor for professional balloon editing, features absent from simpler personal-reading translators. ## Cons - The free path is limited to daily check-in credits with no disclosed per-day amount on the pricing page, making it nearly unusable for anyone processing more than a handful of pages without paying. - Credit costs scale against you at volume: a scanlation group processing 500 pages per month at the Monthly subscription rate of 3,200 credits for $12.90 will exhaust credits quickly if each page consumes multiple credits depending on the chosen LLM model. - No desktop app, browser extension, or offline mode; the entire workflow depends on an active internet connection and the Ficory LLC service staying online, which is a real dependency risk for professional production schedules. ## Pricing Freemium. A free tier is available. - Free (Daily Check-in): Free - Starter (One-time Pack): $4.99 - Pro (One-time Pack): $19.90 - Max (One-time Pack): $99.90 - Mensal (Monthly Subscription): $12.90/month - Anual (Annual Subscription): $129.90/year Pricing reflects what we saw at the time of review (2026-09).

Compared to Sumi, it adds a fuller online editor and API access, but its credit model means costs scale quickly for anyone processing full volumes regularly. Casual readers who just want to read a chapter or two will find the free daily check-in credits thin and should look at Sumi instead. Best for: Scanlators and localization studios needing batch translation with an online editor Not for: Casual readers wanting unlimited free access or teams needing flat-rate monthly seat pricing ## Overview Manga Translator's AI manga translator (branded in Portuguese as "tradutor de mangá com IA") is a browser-based tool operated by Ficory LLC that takes raw manga pages and returns translated, retypeset images without requiring any desktop software. The core pipeline runs OCR on vertical and horizontal Japanese, Chinese, and Korean text, passes it through large language model translation, erases the original lettering, repairs the background, and drops the new text back into the original balloon layout. All of that happens in one browser session. What separates it from simpler one-click translators is the layered product structure. Individual readers get the batch uploader. Scanlation teams and studios get a fuller online editor described as Photoshop-like, where they can adjust balloon placement and typography. Developers and production pipelines can connect via API. The pricing page lists five tiers across one-time credit packs and subscriptions, with credit costs ranging from $0.005 per credit on the Starter pack down to $0.003 per credit on the Max pack or Annual subscription. The site is available in 15 languages, including Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, and Hindi, which signals a genuinely international audience rather than a tool built for one market. The daily check-in credit system is the only no-cost path, and it is thin enough that anyone doing more than occasional page checks will need to buy credits or subscribe. ## Who should use it A scanlation group that regularly processes 20-to-40-page chapters will get the most from this tool. The batch uploader handles volume, the online editor lets a letterer fine-tune balloon text without switching to Photoshop, and the API opens the door to automated pipelines for studios releasing content on a schedule. The credit model also suits studios that translate in bursts rather than continuously, since one-time packs do not expire. Anyone who just wants to read a chapter of a series they cannot find in their language should look elsewhere. The daily check-in credits are not enough for sustained reading, and buying the Starter pack at $4.99 for 1,100 credits is overkill for a one-off chapter. Sumi, also in this directory, offers a simpler personal-reading experience with a lower barrier to entry and is the better fit for that use case. ## FAQ Q: Is there a genuinely free plan, or do I have to pay to use this? A: There is no traditional free tier. The only no-cost path is earning credits through a daily check-in system. The pricing page does not disclose how many credits the check-in awards per day, so sustained use without payment is not realistic. Q: Do unused credits expire? A: One-time credit packs do not expire. Subscription credits (Monthly at 3,200/month or Annual at 41,700/year) reset each billing period, so unused credits from one period do not carry over. Q: What file formats does the tool accept? A: The platform accepts JPG, PNG, and PDF uploads. The broader Manga Translator product family also references EPUB and CBZ archives, though the specific limits depend on the plan chosen. Q: How much does it cost to translate a full manga chapter? A: Credit consumption per page varies by the LLM model selected. At the Starter rate of $0.005 per credit, the exact page cost depends on how many credits each model consumes per page, which the pricing page does not specify in a simple pages-per-credit table. Q: Is there an API for integrating this into a production workflow? A: Yes. The submitted product description confirms API access for teams and professionals, though the pricing page does not list a separate API-specific tier or rate card. Q: Who operates this tool? A: The tool is operated by Ficory LLC, as stated in the footer of the pricing page. The site is available in 15 languages and targets an international audience of readers, scanlators, and localization studios.
