For professional & certified translators · macOS + Windows
Forget the CAT tool you know.
Meet Contextra — the CAT tool built for the AI era. It translates your DOCX on your own Gemini, GPT, or Claude key, keeps every bit of formatting, and turns your glossary, memory, and term base into an edge that compounds with each job — all on your machine, nothing through our servers.
Free 14-day trial — the full app, no card required.
Built the way you work
Contextra puts AI to work inside your process: analyze the document, build a glossary that earns its place, consult your memory before spending on AI, review at keyboard speed — and export your original file, just translated.
How Contextra works
Import your .docx — it stays untouched. Contextra analyzes the document, translates memory-first and AI-second, lays everything out in a review grid, and exports the same layout in a new language.
- Step 1ImportYour .docx, untouched
- Step 2AnalyzeDomain, jurisdiction, glossary
- Step 3TranslateMemory first, AI second
- Step 4ReviewEnter accepts and advances
- Step 5ExportSame layout, new language
It reads the document before it translates
Automatic document analysis
Before a single segment is translated, Contextra works out what the document is — its domain, jurisdiction, and register — and detects the source language down to the regional variant. Every batch reaches the AI with that context, so it translates like a specialist, not a generic engine.

- Legal
- Jurisdiction
- Brazil · Minas Gerais· Civil law

Analyze any term on demand
Not sure how a term should land? Contextra gives you a definition, alternative translations with their register, real usage examples, and warnings for false friends and jurisdictional gaps — so you decide with the full picture, not a guess.
outorgante
grantor
Definition
The party who grants powers to another to act on their behalf under a power of attorney.
In Brazilian civil law the outorgante confers a mandate on the outorgado (the attorney-in-fact); the relationship is governed by the Código Civil.
jurisdictionalAlternative translations
- grantorFormalIn use
Standard term in U.S. powers of attorney.
- principalFormalUse
Preferred when the agency relationship is emphasized.
- donorFormalUse
UK usage, chiefly for lasting powers of attorney.
Usage examples
“O outorgante confere ao outorgado amplos poderes para representá-lo perante repartições públicas.”
Código Civil, art. 653 · legislation
Warnings
Common-law systems have no exact equivalent of the civil-law outorgante — “grantor” conveys the role, not the notarised mandate under the Código Civil.
Formatting that survives
Your file, just translated
Bold, italics, superscript, hyperlinks, tables nested inside tables — everything stays exactly where it was. You don't get a document that looks similar; you get your file, with the text swapped and nothing else touched.
See it before you send it
The preview isn't a simulation — it's the real translated file next to the original, so you check the final result before you export.

A glossary with a purpose
Only terms that change the translation
A bloated glossary is as useless as none. Contextra keeps only the terms that genuinely need disambiguation or must stay consistent — and shows you everything it considered and skipped, so you can bring any of them back in one click. A lean, even empty, glossary is a valid result, not a failure.
Memory & terminology that compound
Translation memory
Work you've already translated shouldn't cost you twice. Contextra pre-fills from your memory before any AI call, at zero cost, and everything you accept feeds it back — with context. Your asset grows with every job.
Term base, with TMX & TBX
Your settled terminology holds across every document, not just the one on screen. And because Contextra speaks TMX and TBX, you can bring your memories and term bases over from memoQ, Trados, or Phrase — and take them back out whenever you want.

Memory pre-fill runs before any AI call — zero cost for anything you've ever translated before.
Review like a CAT tool
Keyboard-first review
Enter accepts a segment, propagates it to every identical passage, and jumps to the next pending one — your hands never leave the keyboard. Every acceptance quietly trains your memory for the next document.
Merge & Split segments
Sentences chopped in half by paragraph breaks stop being a problem. Merge neighboring segments and translate them as one natural unit, or split a long one exactly where you choose — and the document's layout survives export untouched.

Multiple documents in tabs
Open a client's whole batch in tabs and translate them in parallel — each tracks its own progress, and a term you accept in one document updates the matches in the others.
Your AI, your key, your machine
Multi-provider AI, costs under control
You choose the engine — Gemini, GPT, or Claude — and pay its list price on your own key, with no markup. A usage panel shows what every document cost, so you can bill accordingly.
Private by design
Client documents are confidential, and the app treats them that way. Everything runs on your machine; your text leaves only for the provider you chose, on your key — never through a server of ours.
- DOCX parsed here — never uploaded
- Memory · term bases · projects stay on your disk
- Your own API key — Gemini, GPT, or Claude
- One direct API call, straight to the provider
One license. Your key. Every feature.
No page metering — Contextra runs on your own Gemini, GPT, or Claude key.
