About Waygo
Traveling to China? Waygo by Translate Abroad makes becoming a local easy, tackling the language barrier that can hold you back during a business or leisure trip.
Using optical character recognition (OCR), Waygo instantly translates Chinese characters to English text by simply holding your smartphone camera over the characters with no need for an internet connection. It is also a helpful tool for language learners to master new words and phrases. Waygo uses proprietary algorithms to create simple phrases. When benchmarked against ABBYY (the top commercial OCR) our software is five times faster, two times more accurate, and a tenth of the file size. Go like a local.
