How do you translate technical documentation without breaking your flow?

To translate technical documentation — English docs, error messages, tool interfaces — select the region on screen with Sincron Screen Tools and read the translation without switching windows. The Windows app preserves the commands, paths, and field names around the translated text, and summary mode explains what an error message is asking for, not just what it says.

The problem

Where teams get stuck

Internal systems block copying

Plenty of ERPs, vendor consoles and remote clients render text you simply cannot select.

Errors outside English

A message in Japanese, Chinese or German kills your search: you do not even have the term to look up.

Context is lost in the ticket

The screenshot goes in with no annotation, a colleague opens it and cannot tell which of the twelve lines matters.

How it works

From an unreadable error to a clear ticket

01

Select the message and its surroundings

Capture the error together with the screen it appeared on. A code alone says less than a code in context.

02

Read it translated without breaking the log

Identifiers, file paths and error codes stay readable; what changes language is the part written for humans.

03

Ask what is actually happening

The summary explains what the message indicates and which part looks like the cause — and says when it is unsure.

04

Annotate and attach it to the ticket

Arrow on the critical line, box on the wrong field, clean PNG. The ticket explains itself.

Features

Built for work screens

Code stays code

Variable names, paths and commands are not translated along with the prose.

Works over remote access

Remote session, virtual machine, legacy client: if the screen renders it, the selection reads it.

Annotation for handoff

Pen, arrow and text over the live screen, without freezing the system that is running.

No screen sent to a third party

Internal screens usually carry sensitive data. They never pass through our servers — and can stay on a local model.

Questions from people running systems

Does it translate an error inside a system that blocks copying?

Yes. Reading happens from the screen, so ERPs, vendor consoles and remote clients work even without selectable text.

Will translation mangle code snippets?

The goal is to translate the prose and leave identifiers, paths and commands untouched.

Does it work in a remote session or a VM?

It does: the capture comes from your local screen, so anything displayed in your window can be read.

Can I use it in an environment with sensitive data?

You pick the provider. With a local model the selection never leaves the computer; with an external provider it travels with your key and never through us.

Does Sincron translate the whole documentation at once?

It translates the region you select — a paragraph, a parameter table, or a full visible page. The original layout stays on screen as your reference.

Are commands and code snippets preserved?

Yes. The translation focuses on prose and keeps commands, flags, paths, and field names intact, so you can copy the example without errors.

Does it work inside terminals and IDEs?

It works over any visible window on Windows: editor, terminal, browser, Git client, or remote tooling.

Is it useful for learning in another language?

Yes. Summary mode explains the concept of the selected passage in plain language — helpful when you are learning the language and the technology at the same time.

Privacy and cost

Your screen never becomes our database.

Your selection goes straight from your computer to the AI provider you picked — with your key. We do not store the content, we do not train on it and we have no way to read what you translated.

Your OpenAI or OpenRouter key stays on your machine, encrypted by Windows. Support will never ask for it.
Every translation and summary shows the cost before and after. No surprise invoice at the end of the month.
