    We built a Google extension in a 24-hour Hackathon hosted by DubHacks. We offer the ultimate tool to break language barriers for online communication - Polyglot Bot. Our extension interfaces with Google Cloud Services, where we utilized translation and text-to-speech functionalities to translate any highlighted text that the user selects and read it out loud. The mission is to make information more accessible across the globe and connect people around the world.
