README

Rosetta

AI-powered Excel translation CLI. Translates Excel files while preserving formatting, formulas, and data integrity.

What it does

Rosetta translates all text in your Excel files using Claude AI, without breaking:

Formulas and calculations
Formatting (fonts, colors, borders)
Merged cells and layouts
Charts and images
Dropdown menus
Rich text (bold, italic within cells)

Prerequisites

You need a Claude API key from Anthropic.

Go to console.anthropic.com
Create an account (or sign in)
Go to API Keys and create a new key
Copy the key (starts with sk-ant-...)

Note: API usage is billed by Anthropic. See anthropic.com/pricing for current rates. Translating a typical Excel file costs a few cents.

Installation

Install from PyPI:

pip install rosetta-xl

Then set your API key:

# Linux/macOS
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-your-key-here

# Windows (Command Prompt)
set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-your-key-here

# Windows (PowerShell)
$env:ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-your-key-here"

Or create a .env file in your working directory:

ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-your-key-here

Usage

# Translate to French
rosetta input.xlsx -t french

# Translate to Spanish with custom output name
rosetta input.xlsx -t spanish -o translated.xlsx

# Specify source language (auto-detected by default)
rosetta input.xlsx -s english -t german

# Translate only specific sheets
rosetta input.xlsx -t french --sheets "Sheet1" --sheets "Data"

# Add context for better translations (e.g., domain-specific terms)
rosetta input.xlsx -t french -c "Medical terminology document"

Options

Option	Short	Description
`--target-lang`	`-t`	Target language (required)
`--source-lang`	`-s`	Source language (auto-detect if omitted)
`--output`	`-o`	Output file path (default: `input_translated.xlsx`)
`--sheets`		Sheets to translate (can repeat, default: all)
`--context`	`-c`	Domain context for better accuracy
`--batch-size`	`-b`	Cells per API call (default: 50)

Examples

Translate a price list to multiple languages:

rosetta prices.xlsx -t french -o prices_fr.xlsx
rosetta prices.xlsx -t german -o prices_de.xlsx
rosetta prices.xlsx -t spanish -o prices_es.xlsx

Translate a medical form with context:

rosetta patient_form.xlsx -t french -c "Medical intake form with clinical terminology"

Translate only the "Questions" sheet:

rosetta survey.xlsx -t japanese --sheets "Questions"

Troubleshooting

"ANTHROPIC_API_KEY not set"

Make sure you've exported the key: export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
Or create a .env file with the key

"Invalid API key"

Check that your key starts with sk-ant-
Make sure you copied the full key from console.anthropic.com

"Rate limit exceeded"

You've hit Anthropic's rate limits. Wait a minute and try again
Or reduce batch size: rosetta input.xlsx -t french -b 20

How it works

Extracts all text cells from your Excel file
Sends text to Claude AI for translation (in batches)
Writes translations back, preserving all formatting
Saves the translated file

Your original file is never modified.

Web App & API

Rosetta also includes a web application and REST API for browser-based translations.

Running the API server

# Install with uv (recommended)
uv sync

# Start the server
uv run uvicorn rosetta.api:app --reload

# Or
