## About

Syrian-built AI assistant for writing, coding, and conversational tasks

## Activity summary

Restricted for users in Syria. Community testing in February 2026 confirmed that the free tier — the chat assistant, image generation, and coding help — works normally from Syria with no restrictions. The only barrier is the paid subscription: checkout fails because the payment provider Stripe does not accept connections from Syrian networks, a limitation outside Thaura.ai's control. The service was reclassified from limited to restricted in August 2026 to match how the platform records other services blocked only at the payment step. No outreach has been made.

## Official timeline

- 2026-08-31 — Note. Thaura.ai has been reclassified from limited to restricted so that it is recorded the same way as every other service on the platform blocked only at checkout. Every feature works normally from Syria; the only barrier is the paid subscription, which fails because Stripe does not accept connections from Syrian networks. Restricted is the status used for a service that works while specific features stay withheld, and it now applies to more than twenty other services blocked at the payment step in the same way. No new testing was carried out, and nothing about access to the service has changed.

## Community reports

- 2026-02-16 — Evidence Added. Community member reported that Thaura.ai's paid subscription checkout fails from Syria. The Stripe Checkout page (checkout.stripe.com) returns "Something went wrong — the payment provider cannot be reached at the moment." This is a Stripe limitation, not a Thaura.ai restriction — Stripe does not support transactions from Syrian IPs. All free-tier features (AI chat, image generation, coding assistance) continue to work normally from Syria, as confirmed the previous day.

- 2026-02-15 — Verified. Community member verified that Thaura.ai is fully accessible from Syria via DSL connection. Testing confirmed login works normally, AI image generation produces results without issues, and the conversational chat assistant responds in Arabic as expected. All core features — writing, coding assistance, and image generation — function without any restrictions.

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025.
