An unofficial free Python library that wraps Google Translate's Ajax API for text translation and language detection. It supports async usage, bulk translations, HTTP/2 via httpx, proxies, and customizable service URLs.

Use cases

  • translate text between languages in python
  • detect the language of a string
  • bulk translate a list of strings
  • translate text without paying for an API key
  • add translation to a python script or bot
  • auto-detect source language before translating

When to choose

  • you need free translation without an API key
  • you want async or bulk translation in Python
  • you need language auto-detection
  • you want a lightweight pure-Python translation client

When to avoid

  • you need a guaranteed SLA or production reliability
  • you cannot risk Google blocking or changing the unofficial endpoint
  • you need high-volume commercial translation
  • you need official support or long-term stability
