Developers, researchers, and organizations who need efficient, open multilingual translation technology that can run across devices from mobile and laptops to cloud systems
About TranslateGemma
TranslateGemma is a new suite of open machine translation models from Google built on the Gemma 3 foundation that lets people and systems communicate across 55 languages with high-quality AI translation while maintaining efficiency and broad deployment flexibility. Available in 4 B, 12 B, and 27 B parameter sizes, TranslateGemma distills advanced multilingual capabilities into compact models that can run on mobile devices, consumer laptops, local machines, or cloud hardware without sacrificing accuracy or performance; technical evaluations show the 12 B version can outperform larger baseline models with lower compute demands. The models were developed through a specialized two-stage fine-tuning process combining high-quality human and synthetic translation data with reinforcement learning to optimize translation quality across diverse language families.

Google Cloud Translation API
Make your content and apps multilingual with fast, dynamic machine translation available in thousands of language pairs.
The basic edition of the Translation API translates the texts of your website and your applications into more than 100 languages instantly. The Advanced edition offers dynamic results just as quickly as the Basic edition, but also includes other customization features, which is very important when you use phrases or terms that are specific to specific areas and contexts. The pre-trained model of the Translation API supports over a hundred languages, from Afrikaans to Zulu. With AutoML Translation you can create custom models in more than fifty language pairs. Thanks to the Translation API glossary, the content you translate will remain true to your brand. You just have to indicate which vocabulary you want to give priority to and save the glossary file in your translation project.

PaliGemma 2
PaliGemma 2, the next evolution in tunable vision-language models, builds upon the performant Gemma 2 models, adding the power of vision and making it easier than ever to fine-tune for exceptional performance. With PaliGemma 2, these models can see, understand, and interact with visual input, opening up a world of new possibilities. It offers scalable performance with multiple model sizes (3B, 10B, 28B parameters) and resolutions (224px, 448px, 896px). PaliGemma 2 generates detailed, contextually relevant captions for images, going beyond simple object identification to describe actions, emotions, and the overall narrative of the scene. Our research demonstrates leading performance in chemical formula recognition, music score recognition, spatial reasoning, and chest X-ray report generation, as detailed in the technical report. Upgrading to PaliGemma 2 is a breeze for existing PaliGemma users.
