Our verdict

FluentRead shows the original text alongside its translation across a webpage, plus hover or select-to-translate options, and adds an AI reading card for contextual explanations, sentence analysis and follow-up questions. It extends beyond plain webpages to translating text inside images, editing bilingual documents, and adding bilingual subtitles on YouTube and X, with saved words and sentences collected into a learning center for review. It's fully open source under GPL-3.0 with the code on GitHub, but the AI explanation features only work once you've configured your own AI service and model.
