About Jam Kham
We're building the Thai learning app we wished existed. Research-backed, Thai-specific, and honest about what it takes.
Our Mission
"Make Thai language learning as effective as the science says it can be— without gimmicks, without false promises, and without treating Thai like it's just another language."
jam kham What's in a Name?
จำ (jam) means "to remember" or "to memorize." It's the verb for committing something to memory.
คำ (kham) means "word." It's the fundamental unit of language.
Together, จำคำ literally means "remember words"— exactly what we help you do. The name captures our focus: effective vocabulary acquisition, one word at a time.
Our Story
The Problem
After trying every Thai learning app on the market, we found they all had the same problem: they treated Thai like a European language. No real tone training, no classifier drills, no understanding of Thai orthography.
The Research
We spent a year studying the cognitive science of vocabulary acquisition. Spaced repetition, the testing effect, desirable difficulties—we built a system grounded in 50+ years of memory research.
The Launch
Jam Kham launched with a mission: make Thai learning as effective as the science says it can be. Our 3-layer scheduling system is now helping learners build real, lasting Thai vocabulary.
What We Believe
Research-First
Every feature is backed by peer-reviewed cognitive science. We cite our sources and explain why things work.
Thai-Specific
We built for Thai from day one, not as an afterthought. Tones, classifiers, and script are core features.
Honest Progress
No fake streaks or inflated XP. Your progress reflects real vocabulary acquisition, not gamification.
Respect Your Time
We optimize for efficiency, not engagement. 10-20 minutes daily is enough for real progress.
