The Challenge

Why Finding the Right Tile Is Hard Today

Customers describe tiles by how they look, but traditional catalogs only let you search by product codes and SKU numbers.

Photos Without Product Names

Customers send phone photos of loose chips or Pinterest pins without knowing the SKU, brand, or series.

Massive Product Catalogs

Carrying thousands of SKUs across multiple brands makes it impossible for staff to memorize every tile in stock.

Slow Inquiry Turnaround

Sales reps spend 30+ minutes flipping through PDF binders, delaying quotes while customers wait.

Subtle Pattern Differences

Hard-to-spot variations in marble veining, terrazzo chips, or glaze finishes make manual matching tricky.

Lost Out-of-Stock Sales

When an exact tile is unavailable, reps struggle to quickly offer similar in-stock alternatives.

Steep Learning Curve for Staff

New showroom hires take months to memorize catalogs, causing delays during busy counter hours.

The Solution

TileLens helps your sales team serve customers faster. Instead of memorizing codes or flipping catalogs, search by image for instant product recommendations.
