OpenThai-SystemOne, an open Thai and English System One decision model, released 20 September 2026

Tonight we are releasing OpenThai-SystemOne, an open-source Thai and English System One decision model: 0.8B parameters, Apache 2.0, weights and training recipe on Hugging Face and GitHub, and a free hosted API on api.iapp.co.th.

It does not write. It decides. Send it a state and typed questions; it returns a calibrated probability for every option of every question in one forward pass, with zero output tokens.

With OpenThai 2.0 reaching thousands of developers this week, we would like to make one thing clear for everyone building on it: OpenThai — the name and the logo — is a registered trademark of iApp Technology Co., Ltd., registered with Thailand's Department of Intellectual Property under registration no. 251122938.

This is a housekeeping note, not a policy change. The models are open and stay open. This post simply puts the ownership on the record and explains how the name may be used.

OpenThai 2.0 — open-source Thai knowledge, document and agentic AI, released 27 August 2026

Today, together with the Artificial Intelligence Entrepreneur Association of Thailand (AIEAT), we are releasing OpenThai 2.0 — an open-source Thai vision-language model, 27B parameters, Apache 2.0, weights free on Hugging Face.

One month ago we released OpenThai 2.0 Legal, a specialist that knows Thai law by heart. OpenThai 2.0 is its generalist sibling, and the bigger release of the two: a single model that reads Thai documents and handwriting at specialist level, answers Thai knowledge questions in natural Thai, and calls tools reliably enough to run agents — while keeping its base model's general intelligence.
