ShowFloor vs Floori: Catalog Infrastructure or Contractor Sales Workflow?
Both can visualize customer photos and run on a website. Floori organizes product data across brands and channels; ShowFloor carries a contractor lead from first preview through proposal.
Why People Compare These Two
Floori and ShowFloor both let a customer see a new floor in a room before they buy. That is where the overlap stops. Floori is a digital catalog and visualization platform built mainly for manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and showrooms. ShowFloor is a sales tool built for the coating and flooring contractor who shows up to a house or garage with a phone and needs to close the job on the spot.
The comparison comes up because Floori runs a US landing page aimed at epoxy and concrete coating companies (verified July 2026). A contractor searching for a visualizer can now land on either product without a clear sense of which one was built for the work they actually do. That is the question this guide answers.
We pulled every Floori claim here from their own site or a cited third party like Capterra and GetApp. Where Floori does not publish a number (seat limits, exact render quotas on most plans), we say so instead of guessing. The goal is to route you to the right tool, even when that tool is Floori.
The short version
Showroom, retailer, distributor, or European manufacturer who needs a multi-surface catalog (floors, tile, walls) embedded on a website? Floori is likely your fit. US coating or flooring contractor selling in the customer's home or garage? ShowFloor is built for that.
What Floori Does (and Does Well)
Floori is a catalog-first visualization platform. Its core job is to take a brand's product range and make every SKU viewable in a room, on a website, across many surface types. The company positions itself as "More than A Visualizer" and serves manufacturers, distributors, retailers, e-commerce sellers, designers, and field sales reps.
That manufacturer DNA is real and it shows in the customer list. Floori powers the visualizer for Swiss Krono, a large European laminate manufacturer, where the company says over 10,000 people per month upload a photo of their own room and preview Swiss Krono floors. Barlinek, a wood flooring manufacturer, runs the Floori Studio visualizer on its product pages and ties it into dealer maps so a preview turns into a store visit. It runs at brand scale, which tells you who it is priced and built for.
The Floori product suite
- AI Room Visualizer: customers preview products in their own room photo or a demo scene, embedded on the brand's website
- Floori Portal (PIM): product data management that syncs with Shopify, WooCommerce, and Magento
- Floori Professional: an iPad app with LiDAR room measurement, AR visualization, and on-site quoting
- Floori Scanner: turns physical samples into AR-ready, BIM-compatible digital assets
- Kitchen Generator and a WooCommerce plugin for e-commerce integration
The multi-surface range is real. Floori says its visualizer handles "any surface: floors, walls, countertops, cabinets, or rugs" and adjusts per product type, with grout settings for tile, pattern tools for wood, and AR for rugs. If you sell tile and wallpaper alongside flooring, that breadth is hard to match. Roomvo, by comparison, leans heavier on flooring and added paint and wallpaper more recently.
Floori Professional, the iPad app
Floori Professional is a separate iPad app for field sales. It uses the iPad Pro LiDAR sensor to measure a room, overlays products in AR, works offline with a pre-loaded catalog, and generates a quote on site. Floori says the average proposal takes 4 to 5 minutes to fill and claims roughly 7 hours of monthly time savings per salesperson. It needs an iPad Pro with LiDAR and iOS 13.4 or later, which is a real hardware requirement to budget for.

Good to Know
Floori reviewers on Capterra praise responsive support and easy onboarding. The recurring knocks: mobile loading delays, occasional color accuracy issues, and pricing that feels high relative to usage for smaller B2B accounts. Worth raising directly in their demo.
What ShowFloor Does
ShowFloor is a B2B sales platform for flooring and coating contractors. It now covers the two moments that matter most: a homeowner discovering the project on your website and the contractor closing it in the customer's garage or living room. The same platform handles the photo, material choice, client, job, pricing, reviewed proposal, and one-tap acceptance.
The catalog is built for US coating and flooring work specifically. You get 1,000+ real materials covering epoxy flake, metallic, solid color, quartz, polyaspartic, polished concrete, hardwood, LVP, and tile. Brands in the library include Shaw, COREtec, Mohawk, MSI, Daltile, plus the US coating systems contractors actually quote: Torginol, Penntek, Sherwin-Williams, Elite Crete, and Dur-A-Flex.
What is in the box
- Photo-to-visual-proposal on the customer's real room
- 1,000+ cataloged US coating and flooring materials, plus custom uploads for products not in the library
- Branded hosted showroom on Solo and approved-domain website embed on Business
- Visual lead inbox with customer photo, contact details, and material choices
- Reviewed single-scope proposals with one-tap digital acceptance
- White-label branding, shareable links, and PDF export
- Self-serve signup with transparent pricing, use it the same day
The render works on the room the customer is standing in, not a stock demo scene. That is the difference that closes coating jobs. A homeowner deciding on a $12,000 metallic garage floor wants to see their garage, with their door and their lighting, not a generic template room. Two real examples: AG Williams Painting used ShowFloor to close a $15,000 metallic floor job, and another contractor closed a $33,000 commercial deal off the proposal flow.
ShowFloor is not a manufacturer PIM. There is no catalog syndication across dealer networks, no product-data portal for Shopify, and no brand merchandising suite. Its website visualizer is intentionally connected to the independent contractor's lead and proposal workflow instead.
Feature Comparison
Here is the side-by-side. Floori is broader across surfaces and product-data channels. ShowFloor is deeper on the contractor workflow across the website lead and in-home sales visit. Items marked "not published" are things Floori does not state publicly, so confirm them in a Floori demo.
ShowFloor vs Floori, feature by feature (checked July 2026)
| Feature | ShowFloor AI | Floori |
|---|---|---|
| Primary audience | US coating and flooring contractors | Manufacturers, retailers, showrooms, distributors |
| Core job | Close jobs on-site in the customer's home | Sell, specify, and visualize a brand's catalog |
| Render of customer's actual room | Yes (photo upload, the real room) | Yes (photo upload) or demo scenes |

Neither column is "better" in the abstract. If your job is to put a 2,000-SKU tile and wood catalog on a manufacturer website across six surface types, the Floori column is the one you want. If your job is to walk into a garage and sell a flake floor this afternoon, the ShowFloor column is built for you.
Pricing and How You Get Access
The biggest practical difference is how you buy. ShowFloor publishes prices and lets you sign up yourself. Floori is demo-gated: you book a call before you see a number or get access. As of June 2026, verify current pricing on both sites before you commit.
ShowFloor pricing
- Solo: $49/month
- Business: $149/month
- Credit packs from $19 for pay-as-you-go
- Free interactive demo at showfloor.ai/demo, no sales call required
- Self-serve signup, start rendering the same day
Floori pricing and access
Floori does not publish a clean price list on its main pricing page. It routes you to "Talk to Sales" or "Book a demo." The numbers that do exist come from two places. Third-party directories (Capterra and GetApp, June 2026) list a starting price around $165/month, with no free version. Floori's own US epoxy and concrete landing page is more specific: it shows roughly $150 to $250/month for 200 sessions, and $355/month for 500 sessions, with custom SKUs free for flakes and fee-based for metallics and stamped concrete.
A "session" is Floori's usage unit, not a flat render count, and the plan tiers (Basic, Standard, Premium, Premium Pro) scale by catalog size, SKUs, and branded environments. Floori does not publicly publish seat limits or exact render quotas across every plan. If those matter to you, ask in the demo and get it in writing.
Read the epoxy landing page fine print
Floori's US epoxy page states it is "for Epoxy Coatings companies with 2 crews or more ONLY" and explicitly excludes solo operators. The headline offer there is a demo-for-a-growth-bundle deal (Facebook ads management and a landing page build), not a pure software trial. If you are a one-crew shop, you may not be their target customer.
One more thing to weigh on that epoxy page: a chunk of the pitch is a done-for-you marketing service (Facebook ads, landing pages), bundled with claims like "$33,000 of revenue from $500 of ad spend." That is a marketing agency offer wrapped around the visualizer. Worth knowing if you only want the software, not the ad management.
Floori vs Roomvo (Since You Are Probably Asking)
If you are comparing Floori, you are likely also weighing Roomvo, the other big name in embedded retail flooring visualization. Both put a visualizer on a brand or dealer website. The differences contractors and showrooms cite most often:
- AR: Floori includes augmented reality (and a LiDAR iPad app). Roomvo focuses on web pattern-tiling without a native AR mode.
- Surfaces: both are multi-surface now, but Floori markets walls, countertops, cabinets, and rugs alongside floors as a core feature.
- Pricing model: Roomvo leans on a per-SKU manufacturer-and-dealer partnership model, often free to the dealer because the manufacturer covers the license. Floori sells plans (still demo-gated) by catalog size and sessions.
- Data portal: Floori bundles a PIM (Floori Portal) so a brand manages product data in one place; switchers from Roomvo cite that portal as a reason to move.
For a manufacturer or large retailer, Floori and Roomvo are the natural head-to-head because dealer networks, product data, and SKU licensing drive the decision. For a US coating contractor, the more relevant question is whether a visual website lead can continue into the sales appointment and accepted proposal. That is the gap ShowFloor fills.
When Floori Is the Better Choice
Floori is the relevant pick in a few specific situations, none of which look like a contractor running sales visits.
Floori fits you if
Pros
- You are a manufacturer, distributor, or large retailer who needs a visualizer embedded on your own website
- You sell across many surfaces: tile, wallpaper, countertops, cabinets, and rugs, not just floors
- You are a European or international brand and want a vendor with deep manufacturer experience (Swiss Krono, Barlinek, Classen)
- You need a PIM that syncs product data to Shopify, WooCommerce, or Magento
- You run a showroom with iPad-equipped sales reps and want LiDAR measurement plus AR on site
- You want consumer self-service browsing on your site, where shoppers preview before they ever call
Cons
- You will go through a sales demo before you see pricing or get access
- Floori Professional needs iPad Pro hardware with LiDAR
- US coating systems are added as custom SKUs (some fee-based), not a deep built-in coatings catalog
In short: if your buyer is a brand or a showroom and your goal is breadth of surfaces on a website, Floori is aimed at that lane. Our buyer is the contractor closing one homeowner at a time, and that lane is covered below.
When ShowFloor Is the Better Choice
ShowFloor is the stronger pick when you are the contractor selling the job, the work involves US coatings, and the sale happens in the customer's home.
ShowFloor fits you if
Pros
- You install epoxy flake, metallic, polyaspartic, quartz, or polished concrete and sell it in person
- You want the render on the customer's actual garage or room, not a demo scene
- You quote US coating brands (Torginol, Penntek, Sherwin-Williams, Elite Crete, Dur-A-Flex) and want them in the catalog already
- You want reviewed proposals the homeowner accepts with one tap, on the spot
- You want your hosted showroom or website embed feeding the same contractor workspace
- You want to see pricing and start today without booking a sales call
- You are a solo operator or small crew, not a 2-crew-minimum shop
Cons
- No PIM or e-commerce catalog sync for a manufacturer storefront
- No native LiDAR room measurement (it is render-and-proposal focused, not a tape-measure replacement)
- Surface range is floors and coatings, not walls, countertops, and cabinets
The typical ShowFloor user takes a photo of a garage during the estimate, generates three coating options while the homeowner watches, builds the proposal, and gets a tap-to-accept before leaving the driveway. Two documented outcomes: a $15,000 metallic floor closed by AG Williams Painting and a $33,000 commercial job closed off the proposal flow. That is the workflow the product is shaped around.
The pricing-transparency angle
You can start ShowFloor at $49/month today, run the free demo at showfloor.ai/demo first, and never talk to a salesperson. With Floori you book a demo before you see a price. For a contractor who just wants to render a floor and close a job this week, that difference matters.
