iApp Technology launches iApp Image Generation — the first Thai-made AI image generation model, with Thai text rendered exactly as written

The following is the official press release issued on 2 September 2026.
Bangkok, 2 September 2026 — iApp Technology today launched iApp Image Generation, the first AI image generation model built by a Thai team for the Thai language. Developed by the iApp Technology team, the service produces posters, shop signs, greeting cards, product labels, presentation slides and social-media graphics in which the Thai text appears exactly as the user typed it — every consonant, vowel and tone mark in place. It is available today to every iApp AI API account at a preview price of 1.5 IC per image, half the list price of 3 IC.
Anyone who has asked a general-purpose image model to draw a Thai shop sign knows the result: strokes that look Thai from a distance and read as nonsense up close. Thai script stacks vowels and tone marks above and below the consonant line, and models trained mainly on English and Chinese imagery reproduce the shape but not the spelling. For a printer, a marketing team or a small shop, an image with a misspelled headline is unusable.
iApp Image Generation treats the text as the most important element of the image. The user writes a description of the scene in Thai or English, lists the text that must appear, and chooses one of 19 Thai typefaces and one of five image sizes. The service returns a finished image in about 10 seconds.
Measured, not promised
- In iApp's internal acceptance set of 11 requests covering signs, posters, slides, labels and clothing, all 11 images carried the requested Thai text letter for letter, verified with iApp's own Thai OCR.
- In the 34-image launch gallery generated on 2 September 2026, 33 images (97%) rendered the text exactly as typed. Twenty-five of those images are published unedited on the product page.
- In the same period, five well-known foreign open image models were given between 3 and 6 Thai sign and poster requests each. None produced a single image with the Thai text fully correct.

Built for real work
The service is aimed at the everyday graphics that Thai businesses produce in volume: promotional posters, storefront and event signage, greeting and invitation cards, packaging and product labels, slide backgrounds, T-shirt and merchandise designs, and social-media posts. Text can be up to four lines and in Thai or English, and the same request works from a script, a spreadsheet macro or a marketing tool through the standard iApp AI API.
The launch capacity is about 1,000 images per hour. Requests beyond that are served in the order received rather than refused.
"Thai businesses have been told to accept image AI that cannot spell their own language. We built iApp Image Generation so that a shop owner in Khon Kaen can type ก๋วยเตี๋ยวเรือ and get a sign that says ก๋วยเตี๋ ยวเรือ. This is the first image generation model made by a Thai team for Thai, and we are pricing the preview so that everyone can try it today."
— Dr. Kobkrit Viriyayudhakorn, Chief Executive Officer, iApp Technology
