Eight game modes, Thai script, AI conversation, and review tools — all in one app.
Why Phuut?
A complete Thai learning system — from your first word to real conversation.
Hold your first Thai conversation in week one
Practice with an AI partner that adapts to your level. Casual or formal, your pace. Most learners speak full sentences within their first seven days.
Words stick — without flashcard burnout
Save words from any lesson. Spaced repetition brings them back at the moment you would forget them, so vocabulary moves from short-term to long-term memory automatically.

Why I built Phuut
I was living in Thailand and I still couldn't speak Thai. There weren't many chances to study, so I turned to apps to begin. But the existing ones treated tones and the Thai script as afterthoughts, and there was no serious option I could actually use for free. So I started building Phuut for myself and for friends hitting the same walls. Carrying that conviction, I keep improving Phuut every day with the features and study methods we wished we'd had at the time, so more people can pick up Thai without giving up halfway.

Phuut covers a wide range — from tourist / beginner level (CEFR A1 equivalent) all the way up to advanced (CEFR B2 and beyond). Complete beginners can start with confidence.
Will I learn to read and write Thai script?
Yes. The Thai Script game mode teaches all 44 consonants and 32 vowels in frequency-based order. There is also a dedicated handwriting (習字) mode where you trace each character on screen with your finger or stylus, so the muscle memory actually sticks.

With 15 minutes a day, most learners complete the tourist / beginner level (CEFR A1 equivalent) in 6-8 weeks.
Is the app available in English and Japanese?
Yes. The full UI, lesson explanations, and AI conversation are available in both English and Japanese. Switch in Settings any time.

Phuut is free to use. For learners who want to go deeper, the Pro plan unlocks all limits and gives unlimited AI conversation. Pro is $4.99/month with a 7-day free trial, so you can try before committing.
