Voice translation in desktop apps
Select or show the source text in the desktop app you are using, ask Cue to prepare a translation, and review the result before you replace, save, or share anything.
Keeping the source context in front of you can make a translation request easier to describe, but the result still needs human review.
3 example scenarios
Selected text in a spreadsheet
You say: "Prepare an English translation of this selected text"
Cue does: Cue drafts a translation from the context you provide. Verify the source cell, numbers, terminology, and destination before replacing anything.
Text on a web page

FAQ
Which languages can I use for translation?
Language support can vary by product version and workflow. Test the exact source and target languages, technical vocabulary, names, and document type you need.
How should I compare Cue with a dedicated translator?
Compare both tools on your own text, language pair, device, and workflow. A dedicated translator may be simpler when no desktop context is needed; Cue can help when the request relates to the work already open.
Will the translation preserve formatting?
Formatting behavior depends on the application and content. Review the result and restore any required structure before you replace, save, or share it.
Can I rely on the translation without review?
No. Review names, numbers, terminology, meaning, and tone. Use a qualified human translator when accuracy has legal, medical, financial, safety, or other high-stakes consequences.
