3. Vision OCR & Bubble Extraction
Multi-model vision OCR extracts speech bubbles, SFX, and side text in reading order.

4. Handwriting & Manual Bounding Tool
For complex handwritten SFX or stylized vertical notes that vision AI misses, use the Handwriting & Manual Bounding Tool to draw custom bounding boxes and transcribe text directly on the canvas.
5. 2-Step Verification Pipeline
Our translation engine uses a 2-step verification pass to eliminate tone drift and enforce character voice:
Raw Draft Translation
High-precision literal line translation directly from extracted Kanji/Furigana.
Verification & Refinement
Cross-references Series Glossary and Chapter Summary to polish dialogue flow.
6. Series-Scoped Glossary
The series glossary maintains character names, honorifics, and location terms across all chapters. Fuzzy string matching automatically catches terms despite OCR typos.
7. Models & BYOK API Setup
Attach your personal Gemini, OpenAI, or Anthropic API keys in Settings.

8. Presets & Legends
Save custom legend tags (Dialogue, SFX, Narration, Side Text) mapped to font presets so typesetters can export pre-styled text in one click.
9. Google Drive & R2 Integration
Stream raw scan folders directly from Google Drive into Cloudflare R2 signed URLs with zero local disk waste.
