Translate manga
on your desktop.

KZRS finds the speech bubbles, sends their text to the AI you choose, erases the original lettering and typesets the translation. Whatever needs fixing, you fix in the editor.

Common questions

Is KZRS free? +

Yes. The app is free with 10 translated pages a day; editing, reading and exporting are not limited. A Supporter code removes the limit.

Do I need an API key? +

For cloud AI, yes: your own key from Google Gemini, Anthropic, OpenAI or OpenRouter (Gemini has a free tier). Or run a local model with Ollama or LM Studio and no key is needed.

How much does translating cost? +

KZRS itself is free (10 pages a day) or a one-time Supporter code per year. The AI is billed by your provider, not by KZRS. Only the bubble text is sent, so requests are small; the price depends on the provider and model you pick. Gemini's free tier and local models (Ollama, LM Studio) cost nothing.

Are my images uploaded anywhere? +

No. Only the text inside the bubbles goes to the AI provider you choose. Detection, OCR, cleaning and typesetting run on your computer.
