The editor: blocks & sentences

The editor is where translation becomes yours. It’s built so you can change a single sentence and leave everything else exactly as it was.

Blocks and versions

A block is a paragraph or heading; documents split into blocks at ingest. Each translation of a block is a version — re-translating produces a new one and keeps the old, with one version active at a time. That’s your safety net: anything you change can be rolled back from the block’s version history.

A block, its toolbar, and a selected sentence.

Editing at the sentence

Click any sentence to edit it inline, or regenerate just that sentence with an optional direction — “make this more formal,” “match the rhythm of the previous line.” You can also pick from alternatives for a sentence; see Translation variants.

Manual edits cost nothing. Regenerating a sentence spends credits like any AI translation.
