BillyBot: The AI Operator That Gets Flooring

At this year’s Flooring Show South 2026, BillyBot will demonstrate the AI operator that handles quoting, invoicing, RAMS, diary management, MTD compliance and automated follow-ups — giving flooring professionals their evenings back by running their business admin so they don’t have to.

 

After two decades laying floors, founder Steve Jones was tired of spending nights on paperwork instead of with his family. Every quoting tool and software package he tried was built by tech people who had never measured a room. So he built his own.

 

What started as a quoting tool has evolved into a full business operator — quotes, invoices, RAMS, diary, MTD, automated follow-ups and much more. The vision now is to make BillyBot the operating system for every flooring business in the UK and beyond.

 

Built for Sole Traders and Large Operations Alike

BillyBot serves everyone from sole traders to businesses with 50+ fitters. As an AI operator — not just software — it can handle thousands of tasks simultaneously. Whether the question is:

• How do I price this herringbone install?

• What’s the correct wastage for LVT?
• Who’s available to fit next Tuesday?

BillyBot has the answer. It works for a one‑man band doing his own quotes and invoices, and for a company managing dozens of fitters, jobs and suppliers. If you lay floors in the UK, BillyBot runs your admin.

 

Founder‑Market Fit: Tested on Real Jobs

Steve still runs a flooring business, Pro‑Fit Floor Coverings. Every feature is tested on real jobs before it reaches a customer. That means BillyBot knows what a door bar is, understands the difference between LVT and laminate, and speaks the language fitters actually use.

 

Twelve months ago, Steve couldn’t write a line of code. He taught himself to code, build APIs and wire up automation from scratch — working 12‑hour days, nearly every day, on top of running a flooring business. It took a full year just to get BillyBot to a point where other fitters could use it.

 

Every feature exists because Steve hit the problem himself on a real job. His brother, also a fitter, has been the toughest tester: if it doesn’t pass his test, it doesn’t ship.

 

The proudest moment was getting the first paying customer. After a year of building in the dark, watching someone use BillyBot on real jobs and come back saying, "I’m seriously impressed by this" — that was the moment it stopped being a project and started being a product.

 

What Customers Appreciate Most

Users love that BillyBot actually understands their trade. It doesn’t need you to explain what a gripper rod is or how to price a herringbone install. Customers say it feels like handing their admin to someone who’s actually worked on the tools — because that’s exactly who built it.

 

Unlike generic business tools with a flooring skin, BillyBot is an AI operator with deep trade knowledge baked in: product taxonomy, supplier SKUs, UK compliance rules and real‑world fitting logic. It doesn’t assist you — it does the work for you.

 

Three core values run through everything:

• Built by a flooring business owner, for owners

• Obsession with accuracy — if the quote’s wrong, nothing else matters

• Radical simplicity — if you need training to use it, we’ve failed

Spotlight on Innovation: Tender Extraction & Quoting

Among BillyBot’s portfolio, the tender extraction tool stands out as a particularly proud innovation. BillyBot can take a tender document, pull out all the relevant details — room schedules, product specs, quantities, deadlines — and have you ready to price it while your competitors are still reading page one. For commercial flooring businesses, that’s a game‑changer.

 

The quoting feature is what grabs most customers. Every flooring business owner knows the pain of spending evenings pricing up jobs. BillyBot handles it in seconds with real trade knowledge — correct product specs, accurate wastage, proper pricing. That’s usually the moment people get it.

 

What to Expect at The Flooring Show South 2026

Visitors to Stand D96 can experience a live demo of BillyBot handling real flooring tasks in real time — quoting, invoicing, RAMS, cutting plans, MTD‑ready bookkeeping. Bring your hardest job and watch it work.

 

Free trials are available on the day — test it on your own business before you leave the show. The team will also be booking follow‑up calls for anyone wanting a deeper look at how BillyBot fits their business.

 

Over the next five years, BillyBot aims to become the default operating system for flooring businesses across the UK and beyond. Starting with flooring because that’s what they know best, the model — an AI operator with deep trade knowledge — applies to any specialist trade. Every serious flooring business will run on BillyBot, and they plan to expand into adjacent trades.

 

You can find BillyBot at Stand D96.
