Building the tech giant France never managed to build. Independent, sovereign, and driven by a generation with no intention of waiting its turn.
The observation
While "made in France" gets celebrated at every trade show, our national health data sits on Microsoft servers, our start-ups sell out to the Americans at the first cheque, and our champions wear borrowed names. We have normalised dependency. Worse: we call it ambition.
Facing the United States and China, artificial intelligence widens the gap every month. Technology is no longer one sector among others: it is the energy, the defence and the influence of the 21st century. A country that does not control its tech no longer controls anything.
Tyrolium was born from that refusal. We do not see other nations as enemies, but as competitors. And competitors are there to be beaten - with better products, better prices and more nerve.
Technology is not a rich kid's hobby. It is the oil, the nuclear bomb of my generation.
Maxime Tournier
Where we come from
It all starts in 2017. Maxime Tournier is 13, with a keyboard and one obsession: building things himself. The first project is a Minecraft server. It would turn out to be the toughest school there is.
Dozens of conflicts, lawsuits, stolen property, takeover attempts by former members - hacks and database breaches included. Where others would have given up, Tyrolium learned to build through pain. That resilience became our DNA.
Meanwhile, institutions looked at us as "video game kids". We were met with diplomas, taxes and red tape. At 17, Maxime was already training classes of adults aged 30 to 40. No diploma. Just his keyboard.
Tyrolium is proof that a generation said to be asleep knows how to stand up. The one that grew up on YouTube, Minecraft and Discord. The one that creates instead of consuming. The one that will build tomorrow.
The model
To be truly independent, you have to own the whole chain. Tyrolium runs on a model theorised by its founder: three poles feeding each other in a loop, tied together by a single account.
We own our creators. A controlled, near-zero-cost advertising pool with a spotless image, which brings our products to the general public.
Our consumer projects bring the public into the ecosystem. That public is a generation of gamers, creators and future entrepreneurs - who learn to trust us.
The most profitable sales. Hosting, services, training and software generate the cash that funds everything else - starting with influence.
An account created for a creator's event is used to join TyroServ, then to order a SolidServ server or a service. In one click. Zero friction between curiosity and purchase.
The conquest
Break markets, lower prices, make technology radically accessible - with polished UX and communication that finally speaks to young people. Here is the order in which we will strike.
The first front, and the most important one. A French infrastructure controlled end to end, at prices that force the giants to justify theirs.
Your online identity should not belong to a foreign multinational. Useritium is the French universal account, with no data resale.
Back to the art of video games: small teams, well-thought-out projects, ambitious open worlds. No crunch, no compromise, funded with our own money.
A profession too often reduced to dubious product placement. We make it a well-run, respected craft that serves creators and brands alike.
Our red lines
Never. To anyone. At any price.
Our data stays on French soil. No conditions.
Tyrolium is not for sale. Three serious offers have already been turned down since 2017.
Fully self-funded. Independence is the only way to credibly promise we will compete with the giants.
Passion, talent and resilience come before the résumé.
Small teams, well-thought-out projects, and respect for those who create.
And this is not marketing.
Our two data commitments - zero resale, hosting in France - are written in black and white in our contracts. If we break them, drag us to court. With our own contracts as evidence.
Our proof
Owning our servers, recruiting without diplomas, making technology accessible: every idea on this page has already been put to the test.

How a semi-crack server launched in the middle of lockdown converted 21.8% of its players, gathered 110,000 unique players and funded the start of Tyrolium.

TyroStage is our recruitment method: spotting talent during our school training sessions, over weeks of real practice, rather than from a CV and a one-hour interview.

With Cabinet Marthelot, we give craftspeople, freelancers and small businesses a showcase website built by our team, with no build cost: only the hosting is paid, as a subscription.

Mathys joined us as an intern. He became the director of Rhodotales, then one of TyroCiel's leading minds. When he wanted to make his own games, we did not hold him back: we incubated his studio, TimeClaw. And he never left Rhodotales.

A word from the founder
Tyrolium is not just my project. It is my life. Since I was 13, every line of code, every sleepless night, every conflict and every victory has built it. Selling it would mean disowning myself.
I have often walked into big companies badly dressed. I have taught adults twice my age. I have made mistakes, plenty of them, and I own every one - they are part of the story, and I have no wish to hide them.
I carry a simple dream: to prove that a young French person with no diploma, crushed by global competition and by their own country's rules, can succeed with nothing but a keyboard. And bring a whole generation along.
Tyrolium is a company of passionate young people who are going to shake up the world - and they know it.
"Tyrolium has only ever had one dream: to create and fund the dreams of its passionate employees."
