Jake Translation FAQ

Quick answers about translating Discord messages with Jake.

What's the best free Discord translator?

Jake is a free Discord translator bot that supports 150+ languages and four translation engines (Google, DeepL, ChatGPT and Microsoft). Every server gets 20,000 free characters of translation each month, plus 1,000 more for every upvote, so most communities never need to pay. Compared to our competitors who have one time trials or limit some langauges to paying users only.

How do I auto-translate a Discord channel?

Invite Jake to your server, then run /quickstart in the channel you want to translate. Pick the languages you need and Jake will automatically translate every new message and edit in that channel. Setup takes around 30 seconds, and you can fine-tune it later from the dashboard.

Does Discord have built-in translation?

No. Discord does not currently translate messages natively, so you need a translator bot or app. Jake adds automatic channel translation, plus the /translate command and a right-click message option you can use anywhere on Discord by installing Jake on your own account.

Is Discord translation free with Jake?

Yes. Jake's free tier renews every month with 20,000 characters of automatic translation across 150+ languages, and voting for Jake on top.gg adds 1,000 bonus characters per vote. Premium tiers (from £4.99/month) unlock more characters and more powerful engines like DeepL, Google and ChatGPT.

Can a Discord bot post translations as the original message sender?

Yes. Jake's morph styles post each translation with the original sender's name and avatar using webhooks, so conversations read naturally instead of as bot embeds. You can choose to keep or automatically delete the original message, and change styles per translation type.

Which translation engine is best for Discord?

Jake lets you choose per server: Microsoft's engine is fast and included free, while premium servers can switch to DeepL for nuance, Google for coverage, or ChatGPT for natural, conversational tone in around 90 major languages.

Can I use a translation bot without adding it to a server?

Jake is a user-installable app: install it on your own Discord account and use /translate in DMs, group chats, and servers that don't have Jake added. You can also right click on messages to translate them on the fly.

Can Jake summarise translated conversations?

Yes, /summarize (or right-click, "Summarize From Here") condenses long conversations into a short recap, free up to five times a day and unlimited on premium. It's handy in busy multilingual channels where catching up message-by-message isn't realistic.

Does Jake keep my server's messages private?

Jake only reads messages in channels where translation is set up, and only to translate them. Nothing is sold, shared or used for advertising, see the privacy policy for the full detail.
