Built to support faster response and the wellbeing of the responders who answer the call

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Jan. 7, 2026 – TymbreIQ today announced its official launch, bringing a more thoughtful approach to fire station alerting that helps first responders respond quickly without adding unnecessary stress. Designed specifically for firefighters and first responders, TymbreIQ’s alerting solutions focus on clear communication, faster response, and a calmer station environment.

Industry veterans Chris White, John Hood, Bob Scharffer, Tom Mattley, Andrew Stanley, and Kelly Perkins come together as the founding leadership behind TymbreIQ, combining deep expertise across AV, engineering, programming, firehouse design, and go-to-market strategy to deliver a smarter approach to audiovisual innovation.
