What T.Y.M. does

T.Y.M. (广东天亿马信息产业股份有限公司, stock code 301178 on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange ChiNext) is a Chinese smart city and digital government solutions provider founded in 1998 and headquartered in Shantou, Guangdong Province. With 251-500 employees and 14 subsidiary/molecular organizations, the company delivers integrated software platforms, self-service government kiosks, and specialized rail transit IT systems to municipal, district, and township-level government agencies across at least 13 Chinese provinces, serving 1000+ government enterprise clients in total.

The company's technology stack rests on ten proprietary core capabilities: digital twin construction, government large language model (LLM) technology, government big data analytics and mining, image super-resolution and recognition, cross-platform WebRTC audio/video communication, unified data integration, intelligent human-computer interaction, visual workflow, intelligent reporting, and low-code application development. Its product portfolio centers on the Grassroots Social Governance Grid Management Platform and the City-Level Social Governance Solution, complemented by specialized offerings for smart communities, digital villages, smart party building, social work, social security, rail transit unmanned operations, and self-service government terminals (including the T.Y.M.-AT0010 and D11 kiosks). Recent capability additions include Visual Workflow and Intelligent Reporting modules launched in 2024.

T.Y.M.'s revenue model is predominantly project-based B2G sales — turnkey implementations, software licensing, and maintenance contracts awarded through public procurement — supplemented by hardware sales of self-service kiosks and a new, emerging revenue stream from Token production for AI inference and cross-border data annotation services. In 2026, the company formed the Guangdong T.Y.M. Data Industry Co., Ltd. joint venture with the Shantou Overseas Chinese Experimental Zone to pursue these AI infrastructure and overseas data services, and announced the acquisition of Guangdong Xingyun Kaiwu Technology alongside strategic cooperation discussions with Huawei on Token, computing power, and data annotation. Distribution is direct via field sales and public procurement, with the new Huawei partnership adding a co-selling channel.
