Translate what people mean, not just what they say. Register, gender and idioms adapted across 21 languages. No account needed. Kinda is Chrome side-panel translation that adapts register, gender, and idioms, not just words. It translates the way a bilingual friend would: what you actually mean, in the register the situation calls for. Most translators give you dictionary output: technically correct, socially wrong. They pick the wrong level of formality, ignore grammatical gender, and translate idioms literally. Kinda is built around one idea: a message that is grammatically perfect but socially off is a failed translation. WHAT MAKES KINDA DIFFERENT - Register-aware. Kinda knows when to say tu or vous, tú or usted, du or Sie, and picks the right one from the relationship you describe, not a coin flip. - Gender-correct. Tell Kinda who is speaking and who they are talking to, and agreements, endings and pronouns come out right. - Idioms adapted, never word-for-word. "Break a leg" becomes the phrase a native speaker would actually use. - Explain. Click any translation and Kinda tells you, in your own language, why it was phrased that way. - Tone ladder. Nudge any translation more formal or more casual, step by step, without retyping. - Formal and casual variants, side by side, for languages with a true formal/informal split. HOW IT WORKS Kinda lives in Chrome's side panel, next to whatever you are reading or writing. Type a message, paste it in one click, or select text on any page and right-click to translate it. Set up a profile once (who you are talking to, in which language, how formal) and every translation respects it. Open it any time with Alt+K. LANGUAGES Free: English, French, German, Spanish (Spain or Latin America), Russian, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese (Simplified or Traditional), Japanese, Arabic, Hindi. Pro adds: Korean, Dutch, Swedish, Polish, Turkish, Greek, Hebrew, Vietnamese, Ukrainian, Indonesian. The interface itself is available in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese (Brazil). PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-up. No email. Kinda identifies your installation with an anonymous random ID and stores your profile and history only in your own browser. The text you translate is sent to our server and to Anthropic (the AI provider, in the United States) solely to generate the translation, and is not stored on our servers. Full details in the privacy policy. FREE AND PRO The free plan includes 20 translations per day in 11 languages. Kinda Pro unlocks unlimited translations, all 21 languages, multiple profiles, and a much larger history that is not wiped each day. Translations are generated by an AI system (Anthropic's Claude). AI output can be imperfect; for high-stakes messages, review before sending. Questions or feedback: support@trykinda.com ```
