We are looking into that topic at the moment. There will be a release covering this in the next weeks using a simple approach at first
from airguard.
I came here to suggest the same thing.

I've just created a Python bluetooth scanner to do the same thing. It reports both Airtags, Tiles and bluetooth beacons (although I haven't verified that last one).
https://github.com/createcandle/bluetoothpairing/blob/main/scanner.py
The Tile in my vicinity (I don't own one, but apparently a neighbour does) doesn't seem to emit advertising bytes, but it does emit a name: 'Tile'. So the code just looks for that instead.

My tiles are detected properly. @AndreasTuranski can you confirm this? If yes, we can probably close this issue
from airguard.
My Tiles are detected also, which is awesome. As well as an extra one I'm not familiar with. But I can't tell which ones are mine and which one isn't. The UI instructions to handle/ignore my Tiles don't work. I can't identify my MAC addresses in the Tile app.

We will check why ignoring the Tiles does not work. Thanks for checking.
Currently, we have not identified if we can let the Tiles ring like an AirTag. Therefore, it's not possible to directly identify them this way. Maybe the adb logs
can show you its MAC address?
from airguard.
I used "adb logcat" to search for the MAC addresses, while I was using the Tile app, and clicking on the "Find" button for each device:
05-03 09:56:44.524 9977 26210 D BluetoothGatt: readRssi() - device: FD:15:E9:F3:A5:95
so then I could work out which MAC address belonged to a device. The MAC addresses aren't easily found in the AirGuard app, though. The list of detected trackers shows them as "Tile 357" with no MAC address. If I tap on the entry, I can see at the top "Device Bluetooth address: FD:15..." and the last of the MAC is truncated. So I had to guess which MAC I was dealing with.
Nevertheless, I was able to determine which three Tiles to ignore. The map view on the other two tiles confirms that they aren't mine, nor are they somehow attached to me or my car, because they didn't go with me on a recent drive. So they must belong to someone else in my household or a nearby neighbour.
