What makes Ellon AI different
Layout preservation
Tables, multi-column layouts, headers, footers, footnotes, images, and signature blocks survive translation. No manual reformatting needed.
200+ language pairs
Translate between any combination of languages. Common pairs like English-German, English-Chinese, English-Arabic, and Spanish-French are optimised for speed.
Fast turnaround
A 20-page PDF translates in under 90 seconds. Batch multiple files in a single job to translate entire document sets at once.
Confidential and secure
GDPR compliant, SOC 2 Type II certified, zero data retention option. Your PDFs are never used for AI training.
Scanned PDF support
Scanned PDFs and image-based documents are converted using Adobe's PDF services before translation, so even non-searchable PDFs produce clean output.
