WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.575 Torah and Chassidus Translate is a workspace for photographed or scanned Hebrew and Yiddish texts. 00:00:07.575 --> 00:00:12.367 Its first principle is simple: the source stays authoritative. 00:00:12.367 --> 00:00:24.889 Artificial intelligence can produce a useful first pass, but difficult typography, abbreviations, page damage, and specialized terminology can still cause errors. 00:00:24.889 --> 00:00:35.711 Keep the image visible, compare every important phrase, and treat the generated result as material for review rather than a final authority. 00:00:35.911 --> 00:00:43.224 Start by creating a clearly named project for the book, section, class, or research task. 00:00:43.224 --> 00:00:45.853 A project is more than a folder. 00:00:45.853 --> 00:00:54.480 It keeps the source pages, page identity, tags, translation runs, saved notes, and review items together. 00:00:54.480 --> 00:01:02.039 This matters because a later question should be grounded in the same source you are reading. 00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:10.502 A clear project name also produces more useful export filenames and makes backups easier to understand. 00:01:10.702 --> 00:01:15.974 The app supports provider configuration, including bring your own key. 00:01:15.974 --> 00:01:27.497 Enter credentials only in the secure settings interface and confirm readiness without displaying the key in screenshots, recordings, or support messages. 00:01:27.497 --> 00:01:33.974 Cloud providers may receive the text, images, or audio required for the selected task. 00:01:33.974 --> 00:01:37.439 Their invoices and terms remain authoritative. 00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:46.853 Compatible local tasks can reduce cloud transfer, but local models require downloads, storage, memory, and device processing. 00:01:47.053 --> 00:01:51.380 Import a representative scan, photograph, or PDF page. 00:01:51.380 --> 00:01:59.555 Before translating, confirm that the image is oriented correctly and remains available for comparison. 00:01:59.555 --> 00:02:05.886 Review the editable OCR because recognition mistakes can become prompt context. 00:02:05.886 --> 00:02:09.091 Check the printed page identity as well. 00:02:09.091 --> 00:02:22.875 A standalone number such as three hundred sixty-one should be treated as a page number unless the source explicitly says volume, vol, chelek, or another clear volume label. 00:02:22.875 --> 00:02:28.084 Correcting identity early prevents misleading titles and exports. 00:02:28.284 --> 00:02:31.786 Now configure one translation run deliberately. 00:02:31.786 --> 00:02:40.504 Select the provider and model, source and target languages, template, and the quality level appropriate for the task. 00:02:40.504 --> 00:02:47.732 Translate one representative page before committing a long document or significant provider cost. 00:02:47.732 --> 00:02:56.226 The test page reveals whether OCR quality, language direction, prompt choices, and structure are working together. 00:02:56.226 --> 00:03:04.795 If something is wrong, adjust the page or configuration while the correction is still small and easy to understand. 00:03:04.995 --> 00:03:08.131 Review the result in the parallel view. 00:03:08.131 --> 00:03:16.574 Keep the original page, editable source text, and structured translation within the same reading context. 00:03:16.574 --> 00:03:27.509 This arrangement makes it easier to inspect a phrase, notice missing material, and distinguish a translation choice from an OCR problem. 00:03:27.509 --> 00:03:36.193 Pay special attention to names, quotations, page headers, abbreviations, and theological or technical terms. 00:03:36.193 --> 00:03:42.786 A readable result is useful, but a result that can be checked is more trustworthy. 00:03:42.986 --> 00:03:49.468 After the first translation, continue the learning loop without losing the project context. 00:03:49.468 --> 00:03:57.659 Ask for a simpler explanation, compare a phrase, inspect a cited location, save a note, or add a passage to review. 00:03:57.659 --> 00:04:03.642 References should open as supporting context rather than replacing the conversation. 00:04:03.642 --> 00:04:10.764 In voice tutoring, the text response should appear as soon as it is available, while speech follows. 00:04:10.764 --> 00:04:18.457 The goal is to help the learner form the next useful question and return to the source with greater clarity. 00:04:18.657 --> 00:04:26.363 Before project-grounded cloud tutoring begins, the app presents a consent explanation. 00:04:26.363 --> 00:04:35.056 Required project excerpts, questions, images, or live audio may be sent to the selected provider. 00:04:35.056 --> 00:04:45.898 Voice services can price text input, audio input, text output, and audio output differently, including cached modalities. 00:04:45.898 --> 00:04:53.336 In-app figures are planning estimates, while the provider invoice is authoritative. 00:04:53.336 --> 00:04:59.071 If pricing is unavailable, a budget cannot be reliably enforced. 00:04:59.071 --> 00:05:06.688 Saved transcripts may also be included in configured encrypted backup or device sync. 00:05:06.888 --> 00:05:17.958 When the page is ready for study or review, export a reading copy with a content-specific filename rather than a generic document name. 00:05:17.958 --> 00:05:25.502 Treat the exported PDF as a study artifact, not a substitute for the verified project state. 00:05:25.502 --> 00:05:36.409 Then use backup and recovery controls to preserve source images, edited OCR, translations, tags, notes, references, and review items. 00:05:36.409 --> 00:05:43.953 Torah and Chassidus Translate keeps the source in view and makes the next question possible. 00:05:43.953 --> 00:05:46.085 AI output requires review. 00:05:46.085 --> 00:05:49.119 Provider charges and terms may apply.
