Tyler lays the floor. The trade can't hire fast enough.

A 50-lb chassis that rolls onto a commercial jobsite, scans the floor, and installs tile, vinyl, or carpet at about 100 sq ft an hour — with one operator, where a hand crew struggles to staff the job at all.

One installer by hand against one operator running Tyler. Manual rates from contractor figures; Tyler's daily output is a full-shift projection of its ~100 sq ft/hr placement rate. The multiple varies with crew, material, and job mix.

The spec sheet

Built to a number,

not a pitch deck.

Every number here is measured on a real floor. ±1 mm placement holds across the whole run — well inside the 1/8 in (3 mm) minimum joint the ANSI standard sets for rectified tile, and steadier than hand-set work stays over a long floor.

What it does

Drive in. Hand off the tablet.

Rolls onto any jobsite

A 50-lb chassis drives in, plugs in, and goes to work. No rails, no civil works, no install crew.

Scans and plans autonomously

Onboard sensors map the floor and compute the optimal layout — no chalk lines, no manual setout.

Places at ±1 mm

Tile, vinyl, or carpet placed at about 100 sq ft an hour. Crew handles edges and cuts.
