About
Matic is a next-generation autonomous floor cleaning robot that uses advanced AI and computer vision to vacuum and mop your home with minimal human intervention. Unlike conventional robot vacuums, Matic employs true visual perception to understand your home in three dimensions — continually building photorealistic 3D maps so it knows exactly what to clean and what to avoid. The robot automatically detects whether a mess is dry or wet and switches between vacuuming and mopping modes accordingly, working on all home surfaces including shag rugs. Its precise obstacle navigation handles wires, toys, and objects larger than 1 inch, resulting in zero stuck incidents and maximum coverage. Whisper-quiet operation makes it suitable during work-from-home hours and nap times. Through the Matic smartphone app, users can schedule room-by-room cleanings, target specific areas, and trigger instant spot cleans for sudden spills — all from their phone. Routines like post-dinner mops or overnight vacuums are easy to set and forget. Founded by two engineers and fathers tired of floor cleaning, Matic has earned top-tier reviews from journalists — including a rare 10/10 rating — for its obstacle avoidance, quietness, battery life, and privacy-first design. On average, it saves families about an hour a day on floor cleaning, freeing up time for what matters most.
