Austin, TX company making Rosie, an AI-powered autonomous robot vacuum for hotels, multi-family housing, and commercial facilities.
Tailos Inc. is a commercial robotics company headquartered in Austin, Texas, founded in 2015 by Micah Green while he was an undergraduate at Cornell University. The company was originally incorporated as Maidbot and rebranded to Tailos in January 2022.
The company's flagship product is Rosie, an autonomous robotic vacuum designed for commercial indoor environments. Rosie uses in-house developed SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology, allowing the robot to navigate and clean without pre-mapping or advanced setup by facility staff. Tailos engineers its SLAM stack internally rather than relying on third-party navigation software.
Rosie 2.0 specifications: dimensions of 12.7 x 20.7 x 8.5 inches, weight of 18 lbs with battery. The system ships with three swappable batteries and a charger; each battery charge supports cleaning of 3,000 to 6,000 square feet and recharges in under four hours, enabling continuous all-day operation. Rosie's cleaning speed exceeds 1,000 square feet per hour. The touchscreen interface is designed for operation by non-technical staff without training on robotic systems.
Tailos targets three primary market segments: hotels and hospitality (room and corridor cleaning), multi-family residential buildings (common area maintenance), and senior living facilities. The company reports Rosie is deployed in twelve countries and cleans millions of square feet per month. Internal data cited by Tailos indicates room attendants using Rosie clean 18 to 21 rooms per shift versus 16 to 17 without it, saving approximately 33 minutes per room per day.
Funding history includes a Series B round led by Reckitt Benckiser (makers of Lysol), with earlier investors including BISSELL, 1517 Fund, and Octave Ventures. Total disclosed funding is approximately $2.78 million across three rounds (Jan 2018, and subsequent rounds through Nov 2020). The Crunchbase profile for Tailos is registered under the legacy Maidbot identifier.
