How Thyim Works

Thyim connects people with nearby, vetted Helpers who respond to real-world needs on demand. Users open the app, make a request, and a Helper typically arrives within 15 minutes to assist with tasks like:

  1. Flat tires or roadside needs
  2. Setting up or breaking down events
  3. Moving bulky items
  4. Quick cleanups and chores

The platform is designed to eliminate long wait times and unreliable listings by prioritizing immediacy and trust.

The Story Behind the Startup

Founder and CEO R.M. Easterly launched Thyim after a personal experience left her stranded during winter without timely help. That frustration, combined with insights gained from working in gig economy jobs, inspired the creation of a people-powered solution for urgent everyday needs.

"This isn’t about convenience, it’s about immediacy," Easterly said. "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."

A Viral Start in Detroit

Before expanding to Tulsa, Thyim quietly launched a beta test in Detroit. Despite no paid advertising, the app quickly gained traction:

  1. More than 3,000 service requests
  2. Thousands of organic downloads
  3. Celebrity users and viral videos
  4. Strong word-of-mouth buzz

Local Impact and Community Partnerships

To support its Tulsa launch, Thyim partnered with Family Promise of Tulsa County to create flexible economic opportunities. The collaboration connects people seeking extra income with real-time tasks submitted through the app.

"This isn’t gig work. It’s a reimagined, neighborhood-based solution built to scale," Easterly said.
