Tiling

You don't have to learn how to use AI in your tiling company. We build it into the software you already run.

You don't have to learn AI to keep tile jobs from stalling between measure and install. ChatGPT is not in the material PO or the GC's punch photo. Cortex builds agents into the job software you already run.

Does this sound familiar?

The stalls we hear in this trade every week.

01

Measures don't become orders

Sold footage and ordered footage diverge.

02

Material holds slip the start

A dye lot, a backorder, a shower pan still in transit.

03

Layout changes on day one

What was bid is not what is on the wall. The extra isn't on paper.

04

Punch after grout sits

A lippage call, a missing schluter, a final draw unasked.

What agents can handle

Examples. Your list comes from the audit, not a template.

Measure to material

Sold jobs that never became a complete order.

  • Order gaps
  • Hold flags
  • Deposit checks

Install-ready

Material, layout, and start date on one file.

  • Ready queue
  • Scope extras
  • GC updates

Punch and pay

Closeout after grout.

  • Open punch
  • Unbilled extras
  • Balance due

A day with Cortex

What a day looks like with agents on

An example day. The agents work inside your phone line, CRM, field software and books. Anything that spends money or makes a promise waits for a person.

Named tools are examples we see in this trade, not a certified integration list. What we can connect depends on APIs, vendor access, and the audit. We do not replace these systems.

How we set it up

Audit, design, build, test, then keep it running. Your existing software stays in place.

  1. 01
    Audit

    Understand the operation

    Software stack, repetitive paths, follow-up that depends on memory.

  2. 02
    Design

    Design the system

    Which agents, which systems, what they may do, and what requires a person.

  3. 03
    Build

    Connect and build

    Agents around those paths, connected to the tools you already use.

  4. 04
    Deploy

    Test with your team

    Permissions, approvals, testing.

  5. 05
    Manage

    Keep it reliable

    Monitoring, connectors, improvements.
