Our Third Party Partners

We use Stripe as a payments provider for paid Effortless Thai subscriptions.

We use OpenAI and ElevenLabs, to translate and pronounce some of the Thai words you are learning.

We also use a tool we built ourselves, the Effortless Thai API, which is an internal API that we built to serve content and data to the app.

Lastly, we use Firebase for authentication and analytics. This helps us understand product performance and make sure the service is up and running 24/7.

Analytics

We use open-source analytics tools that are designed from the ground up to be privacy-first.
