Reading International Research Charts and Data Figures
I review papers from Chinese and Japanese research groups with detailed data charts. Musely translates the axis labels and legend entries in about 50 seconds. About 94% of the data labels are accurate on first pass—saves me hours of working out what each axis represents.
Translating Market Research Charts for Client Reports
We source market research from 8 countries. Musely translates the charts and graphs in each country's reports into English for our client presentations. The data colors and axis scales stay intact. Turned a 3-hour manual task per report into a 20-minute job.

What Users Say About Musely Translate Chart Image
4.8/5 from 1,534 reviews
“Translated 280 market research charts from Chinese and Korean reports into English. Each chart took about 52 seconds, and axis labels and legend entries stayed accurate. Saved our analysis team an estimated $9,000 in manual chart redrafting for our quarterly global reports.”
“I use Musely to translate scientific data charts from Japanese and German research papers. About 93% of the statistical labels are accurate on first pass—occasionally I check a specialized measurement term, but it's much faster than manually interpreting every axis and legend.”
“Great for translating financial performance charts for our international investor presentations. The data series colors and bar formatting stay correct. Very complex dashboards with 10+ charts occasionally need a quick review pass, but handles our standard charts perfectly.”
