Thyim Launches in Tulsa, Delivering 15-Minute Real-World Help Through High-Speed On-Demand App
Viral startup backed by Techstars expands into its next market after thousands of urgent requests and explosive early traction
TULSA, Okla., June 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Thyim, the fast-scaling platform delivering in-person help in 15 minutes or less, has officially launched in Tulsa. Backed by the Techstars Tulsa Accelerator 2025, Thyim is now publicly available following a high-demand beta that began in Detroit, generating thousands of real-world requests and viral user engagement.
The platform connects users with background-checked Helpers, who show up fast to assist with everyday needs, from flat tires to lifting heavy items, setting up events, or solving small but stressful problems.
"This isn't about convenience, it's about immediacy," said R.M. Easterly, Founder and CEO of Thyim. "When something unexpected happens, people don't want to wait hours or search through listings. They want trusted help, right now. That's what Thyim delivers."
From Roadside to Real Life
The idea for Thyim began over five years ago, when Easterly was stranded in winter weather waiting for roadside assistance that never arrived. That moment, along with stories from others experiencing the same thing, planted the seed for a faster, people-powered solution. Before launching Thyim, Easterly also worked in multiple gig economy roles to understand how traditional systems could be reimagined to serve customers and workers.
High Demand, Real Impact
Before its public Tulsa launch, and with zero paid advertising, Thyim's beta phase in Detroit generated:
- Over 3,000 service requests
- Thousands of organic app downloads
- Celebrity usage and viral video exposure
Users open the app, place a request, and a nearby background-checked Helper responds, arriving in 15 minutes or less.
A New Standard in On-Demand Support
Thyim is redefining how real-world needs are met:
- Everyday people helping everyday people
- No estimates or long waits
- Indoor, outdoor, and roadside requests
- Simple, fast, trust-based support
User Reaction
"Thyim got me out of a jam faster than I thought possible," said Tara M., a beta user. "I placed a request and someone showed up within 10 minutes. I couldn't believe it. The app is a lifesaver."
Local Partnership for Impact
To support its rollout, Thyim has partnered with Family Promise of Tulsa County, introducing new economic opportunities by connecting people seeking flexible income with local, real-time requests.
"This isn't gig work. It's a reimagined, neighborhood-based solution built to scale," Easterly added. "Thyim is the app you open when you need something done, and someone shows up. That's the future."
Now Available
Thyim is now live in Tulsa on iOS and Android. First-time users can receive 50% off their first request for a limited time.
