Audio and images functionality

Hi,

I returned to Memrise after a break. I’ve noticed that audio appeared automatically for some words in my newly created course. Wouldn’t it be great to speed up the course creation instead of adding images and audio files one by one?

I suspect that API keys are too expensive either for images (Google Images) or audio (Forvo). Are there any other reasons, apart from expenses, why Memrise couldn’t streamline the process of adding audio files and images?

As for images, can Memrise use free sites, such as Unsplash, Pixabay, etc.?

I don’t need ‘Difficult words’ or ‘Listening skills’ but I would pay for the automation of images and audio.

Is it technically difficult or very expensive? I’m just trying to understand.

Can anyone please explain?

Thanks.
