Frequently asked questions

Can I try Torii for free first?

Yes. You get free credits to test everything when you sign up, with no credit card required, just a one-click login with Google or email. Then start translating and see it work.

Why is Torii not completely free?

Translating content involves several steps:

Text detection - scanning for text using advanced models
Text extraction - converting visual data to text
Text translation - using DeepSeek, GPT, or Gemini
Context processing - ensuring natural and accurate results

These operations are costly because they require state-of-the-art AI models and high-performance servers. Torii can't operate without user support covering these costs.

How do credits work?

The short answer: For standard manga and images, translating 1 image usually costs about 1 credit with the fast models. So 1 credit is roughly 1 image, and bringing your own key makes it cheaper still.

The detailed breakdown:
To keep pricing fair, your cost is based exactly on what you use. A translation is made up of two parts: Image Scanning (OCR) and the AI Translation.

Image & Manga Translation: 1 credit (for Image Scanning) + the AI translation cost based on text length.
Text-Only Translation: 0 scanning credits. You only pay the AI translation cost based on text length.
Visual Novel Translation:
- Using Cloud OCR: 1 credit (for Image Scanning) + the AI translation cost.
- Using Local OCR or Text Hooking: 0 scanning credits. Since you are providing the text, you only pay for the AI translation cost.

Tip on AI models: Fast models like Gemini Flash Lite and DeepSeek are incredibly efficient and usually add just a fraction of a credit to your cost. Premium models (like Claude Opus) provide deeper context and reasoning, but will use more credits per translation.

Tip on BYOK: If you bring your own key, it's cheaper still. You don't pay for the AI translation cost, only the scanning cost (if any).

Do my credits ever expire?

No, credits never expire. Buy now and use them whenever you need, with no ticking clock.

Can I use these credits across multiple devices or browsers?

Yes. Your credits are tied to your account and you can use them wherever you're logged in.

Why do I need to log in with email or Google?

Login is necessary to prevent abuse of the free service and spam accounts. Torii can't handle thousands of free requests every second without user authentication.

Why can't I use a disposable email?

Disposable emails were used to farm the free credits, so they're blocked. That keeps the free credits available for real users.

Can I use Torii's API alone, without the extension?

Yes, Torii's Translation API is available here directly at the API page, or if you prefer on RapidAPI.

Is there a Discord server?

Yes, come say hi on Torii's Discord server.

Does translating the same image multiple times cost credits?

No, translations in Torii cost credits per unique [image-settings] combination, so if you haven't changed your settings, you just get back the translation you already requested the first time, without cost.

Torii auto-deletes cached results after 1 week (which you can change), meaning it will cost you credits again after the cached result is deleted. Torii stores the data on the device which you're using, so if you deleted cookies or cache for the page it will cost you credits again.
