Amazon launched Kindle Translate in beta for a limited set of Kindle Direct Publishing authors. The tool currently translates between English and Spanish and from German to English at no additional cost. Authors can choose target languages, set individual list prices for translated editions, and preview translations before publication. All translations are automatically evaluated for accuracy and translated ebooks will carry a "Kindle Translate" label. Fewer than 5% of titles on Amazon are available in multiple languages, and translations made with the tool will be eligible for KDP Select and Kindle Unlimited. The tool follows Audible's recent multilingual AI narration feature.
