Leanpub now has a TranslateAI service which uses AI to translate their book from English into up to 31 languages, or from one of those 31 languages into English. We also have a GlobalAuthor bundle which uses TranslateAI to translate English-language books into either 8 or 31 languages.

Leanpub exists to serve our authors. We want to help you reach as many readers as possible, in their preferred language. So, just as Leanpub automates the process of publishing a PDF and EPUB ebook, we've now automated the process of translating those books!
