## What is Cheongdok AI?

Cheongdok AI turns Korean text into a Hanja reading, conversion, and translation assistant.

Convert Hangul-only Korean into mixed Korean-Hanja text, or convert mixed script back to plain Korean. Scan Korean text or Hanja from books, signs, notes, and documents, remove pronunciation marks and annotation noise, read it aloud, adjust playback speed, translate it, and copy clean results to your clipboard.

KEY FEATURES

- Korean to Mixed Hanja Conversion — Replace Sino-Korean words in Hangul with Hanja
- Mixed Hanja to Korean — Convert mixed Korean-Hanja text back into plain Korean
- Script Variants — Convert Hanja into simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese, or Japanese shinjitai forms
- Smart Scan Cleanup — Remove pronunciation marks and annotation noise while scanning Korean text
- Read Aloud — Listen to clean text with adjustable playback speed
- Translation — Understand Korean and Hanja text right away
- Clipboard Copy — Copy converted, translated, or recognized text instantly
- Simple & Fast — Open, scan, convert, listen, and copy without extra friction

Cheongdok AI is designed for learners, readers, and anyone working with Korean Hanja, classical-style Korean text, or mixed-script materials. Whether you are studying vocabulary, reading older documents, or comparing Hanja across writing systems, Cheongdok AI helps you move between scripts with less effort.
