The company estimates that this innovation can reduce the time and cost of localizing a webtoon by up to 90%.

Key features of the tool include the automatic recognition and natural translation of text within images; rapid translation into multiple languages—including English, Spanish, and Japanese; support for various image formats such as PSD, JPEG, and PNG files; and a cloud-based editing environment that enables real-time collaboration for enhanced creative efficiency.
