Merlin brings Claude Code and Codex to where your team already works, like Slack, Linear and GitHub. Merlin runs them on your team's own machines and puts every run in the open where anyone can steer it.Imagine you're discussing a feature with a teammate in Slack. The thread is full of context. You want an agent to summarize it and start building. Previously you'll have to copy the thread, paste it into Claude Code or Codex, wait for a plan, paste it back, ask for review. But now with Merlin, all you need to do is to just @Merlin in the Slack thread, and it'll kick off a new session that runs on your device and uses your own subscription, and then send the response back to where it started.Merlin is designed to kill the friction when working with agents in a collaborative environment. It's the shortest path from intent to execution. The desktop app runs on Mac and Windows and supports shared skills, memory, scheduled workflows and permission controls. It works with your existing agent subscriptions. Website: https://usemerlin.ai Contact: support@usemerlin.ai

BookTranslator is an AI book and document translator built for people who need to translate complete books, long documents, subtitles, and reading materials without manually copying text into a translation tool page by page. It supports common file formats including EPUB, PDF, DOCX, MOBI, TXT, SRT, and more, turning uploaded files into readable translated documents in minutes while preserving layout, formatting, chapter structure, paragraph flow, and other document details as much as possible. BookTranslator is designed for readers, students, researchers, writers, publishers, and multilingual teams who work with long-form content and need a faster way to understand material in another language. Instead of translating only short excerpts, BookTranslator focuses on full-file translation, making it practical to translate novels, academic papers, manuals, reports, scripts, study materials, and business documents. Our goal is to make high-quality document translation simple, fast, and accessible. Users upload a file, choose the target language, and receive a translated version that is easier to read, review, share, or continue working with. BookTranslator helps remove language barriers from books and documents while reducing the repetitive work normally involved in long-form translation. Whether you are reading foreign-language books, studying research papers, preparing translated documents for work, or converting subtitle files, BookTranslator provides a practical AI-powered workflow for translating content while keeping the original structure usable.
