The scanlation app
that runs in a browser
Raw chapter or webtoon strip in, lettered CBZ out. A scan translator for the first pass, a box tool and balloon editor for the fixes, an erase brush for the cleaning — manga and webtoon scanlation with no Photoshop and nothing to install.
A chapter, start to finish
The four steps a scanlation actually has, in the order you do them.
Translate the raw
Drop the archive above. Pages run one after another and land in your library the moment each finishes; close the tab and nothing already done is lost.
Fix what the model missed
Open a page, draw a box over a skipped balloon, and only that region is re-read. Wrong line? Click the balloon, edit the text, resize or drag it.
Letter and clean
Translating from your own script instead? The editor empties the balloons and lets you type each line. Brush away credits, watermarks and leftovers.
Export
Download the chapter as CBZ or ZIP, or grab single PNGs. Everything stays in your library for 30 days.
What a scanlator needs that a plain manga translator skips
Reading a raw once is a translator. Producing a chapter other people can read is a workflow.
Raw chapter in
Drop the raw as a ZIP, CBZ, CBR or PDF. Pages unpack in reading order in your browser — the “(1)” copies your scraper made sort after the originals.
First pass in one go
Every page is detected and translated with the whole page as context. Failed pages are never charged; retry them one at a time.
Fix, don’t redo
Draw a box over a balloon the detector missed and only that region is re-read. Click any balloon to edit the line, resize it or drag the lettering.
Letter your own script
Already have a translation? Use the editor: balloons are emptied without touching the art, then you type each line and it’s fitted to the balloon.
Erase brush
Leftover marks, credits, watermarks: brush over them. The brush takes the colour under it, so halftone stays halftone.
CBZ out
Export the finished chapter as CBZ or ZIP. Opens in Mihon, Tachiyomi, Panels and YACReader; every page also sits in your library for 30 days.
Browser scanlation vs the desktop stack
Photoshop + a translator tab + an OCR tool + a CBZ packer is the traditional stack. Here is what changes.

Scanlation FAQ
Does it work for webtoon scanlation?
Yes. A long strip is sliced at the gutters, each part translated with its context, and the translation drawn back onto the original strip — so webtoon scanlation goes through the same batch → fix → export flow. See the webtoon translator for single strips.
Is this a “scan translator”?
If you mean translating manga scans (the French sense of “scan” — a raw chapter), yes: that’s exactly the input. Drop the scans as an archive and the whole chapter comes back lettered.
Is this a scanlation app or a translator?
Both halves. The chapter translator does the machine-translation pass; the editor does the fixing and lettering. This page is the workflow that joins them.
Can I use my own translation instead of the machine’s?
Yes. Run the page through the editor: balloons are emptied, you type each line, and it’s fitted automatically. No credits are used for that.
Does it handle sound effects and text on the art?
Text on the art is erased stroke by stroke and redrawn in place with an outline. Anything left over, the erase brush handles.
What about consistency across a series?
Within a page, every balloon is translated in one pass with the whole page as context. A pinned series glossary isn’t available yet — for now, fix a drifted name by clicking the balloon and editing it.
Can I export for Tachiyomi / Mihon?
Yes — CBZ out, which all the common readers open directly.
