Translate and refine your texts inside Claude with Ravira

With the Ravira connector, you can translate a text with the right terminology and then polish it with Claude, all in the same conversation.

Ravira delivers the translation itself: complete, fluent and built on terminology for 20 domains. Through the connector, Claude brings that translation into your conversation, where you can adapt it to a specific audience, format it for wherever it will be published, or review it line by line, without copying text between tabs.

Connect Ravira to Claude

Setup takes about two minutes and works in Claude on the web and in Claude Desktop.

1. Open Connectors. In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors, and choose "Add custom connector".
2. Add Ravira. Enter the name Ravira and the server URL https://ravira.dev/mcp, then click Add.
3. Get your API key. Sign in to your Ravira account and copy your key from the dashboard, under API Keys.
4. Start translating. Ask Claude to translate with Ravira, and Claude calls the connector for you.

Translations use the characters in your Ravira balance, at the same rate as the website and the API.

The connector gives Claude three tools: one to translate, one to list the supported languages, and one to check your balance. You never need to call them by name; plain requests are enough.

Step 1: translate with the right domain

The single most useful thing you can tell Claude is the domain. It decides which terminology Ravira draws on, so a contract gets legal terms and a leaflet gets medical ones.

A good request names three things: the target language, the domain and the text.

Translate this contract from German to English with Ravira, legal domain.

Use Ravira to translate the abstract and methodology of this paper into Romanian, academic domain.

Ravira supports 20 domains, including legal, medical, literary, spiritual, technical, financial, academic, marketing, scientific, IT and engineering. If you are not sure which languages are available, simply ask Claude: "Which languages does Ravira support?"

You can paste the text, attach a file, or point Claude to text it already has in the conversation.

Step 2: refine with Claude, keeping the terms

Once the translation is back, Claude can shape it for your reader. The key is one short instruction: keep Ravira's terminology as it is, and work on everything around it.

Make this translation sound warmer for a customer newsletter. Keep the product and legal terms exactly as Ravira translated them.

Useful refinements to ask for:

• Audience. "Rewrite it for readers with no technical background."
• Register. "Use the formal address throughout." This matters in languages such as French, German or Romanian, where formal and informal forms differ.
• Length. "Shorten it to fit a 150 word product description."
• Style. "Match the tone of the original: calm and direct."

Because the terms stay fixed, every rewrite remains consistent with the first translation, and you can iterate as many times as you like.

Step 3: finish together

When the translation reads well, ask Claude for a final pass before you publish. Tell it where the text is going and what matters most:

Read the final text once more for our website. Make sure the product terms are used the same way everywhere, that numbers and dates are formatted for a German reader, and that the tone stays formal.

Claude returns a short list of anything worth a second look, and you decide what to change. For texts with legal, medical or financial weight, a specialist's final approval completes the process.

Workflows that work well

Authors and writers. Translate a chapter with the literary domain, then ask Claude to keep each character's voice and the rhythm of the dialogue. Work chapter by chapter, so each one stays easy to review.

Legal and business teams. Translate a contract with the legal domain, then ask Claude for a plain language summary in the same target language for colleagues who need the gist. The contract itself keeps its precise wording; the summary makes it approachable.

Developers. Share an en.json file and ask Claude to translate every string with Ravira, keeping the keys and placeholders such as {name} untouched, and to return a ready ro.json.

Researchers. Translate the abstract and methodology of a paper with the academic domain, then ask Claude to explain the method in your own language or compare it with another study you are reading.

One conversation, from first draft to final text

Translate with Ravira, adapt the result with Claude to wherever it will be used, and review it together before you publish. The whole process happens in one place, and every step builds on the one before it.
