About this project

Zimoo, formerly known as "Subtitle Group Machine Translation Assistant," focuses on machine translation of subtitle files. It supports three mainstream subtitle formats: .srt, .ass, and .vtt. Users simply drag in subtitle files, configure the translation provider's API key, and can translate into the target language or generate bilingual subtitles with one click. Core features: - BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) model: directly uses provider APIs, lowest price, can take advantage of free quotas (such as Baidu, Caiyun, etc. with millions of free characters per month), no middleman markup. - Two versions available: web version (zimoo.app, ready to use, requires circumventing the firewall) and desktop version (Windows/macOS/Linux). - Multiple provider support: can freely switch among Baidu, Caiyun, Tencent, Alibaba, OpenAI, DeepSeek, and other translation providers. - Batch processing: supports translating multiple files simultaneously. - Flexible output: can choose translation-only or original plus translation bilingual format. Applicable scenarios: individuals watching foreign-language video tutorials, subtitle groups doing initial machine translation followed by manual polishing. The author notes that machine translation accuracy is about 50%-85%, and high-quality needs are recommended to use human translation. The software is divided into a free version (monthly character limit) and a professional version (no software-level limit, providers bill based on actual usage). Configuration tutorials are available at doc.tern.1c7.me. Media reviews: recommended by SSPAI and Minority.
