Taimi was launched in 2017 by Social Impact, Inc. in Las Vegas. Its founder, Alex Pasykov, originally called the app "Tame Me," a name that gradually morphed into Taimi.[5]
Over time, Taimi continued to evolve in two ways: expanding into other countries, and expanding its reach to the LGBTQ+ community, so that, by 2022, it was fully inclusive of the entire queer community[6][7][8][9]
In November 2020 the app underwent a full redesign, incorporating a new logo, new branding, and an upgraded app interface.[10]
As of 2024, there are 25 million+ registered users of Taimi worldwide. Pasykov states that he is an ally of the LGBTQ+ community and that he is focused on, among other things, partnering with NGOs to fight Homophobia and "regressive policies and laws' ' that negatively impact the community.[11][12][13]

Users register on the app and complete a profile/bio, including personal information and preferences for compatibility, dating style, and relationship goals. A sophisticated algorithm then finds and presents recommendations that a user accepts or rejects. Users are then free to chat via text or video with people they've connected with.[14][15][16]
Safety and security features include a two-step authentication process and an automated account verification along with a clear reporting system when breaches or policy violations occur. User responses to new features and policies drive changes and modifications that are made to all aspects of the site.[17][18][19]
