What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Quantifiable Gains in Efficiency and ROI
Slash Weekly Admin Time by 25 Hours
Slash Weekly Admin Time by 25 Hours: Techs spend less time on paperwork and more on lifts, with AI auto-logging VIN-specific mileage via integrated OBD-II and service notes for sedans to heavy-duty trucks. Freeing up 25 hours per week across a four-bay shop yields a direct ROI of $30K yearly, based on NAPA benchmarks for lube tech labor at $25/hour.
Boost Revenue with 20% More Oil Changes
Boost Revenue with 20% More Oil Changes: Predictive scheduling using historical bay utilization data fills gaps intelligently, reducing downtime by 30% during 15-minute express service slots. Shops using our system report handling 20% more vehicles weekly without adding staff—translating to $50K+ in extra annual revenue from high-margin synthetic oil upsells at $20 premium per service.
Cut Inventory Costs by 15%
Cut Inventory Costs by 15%: AI forecasts 5W-20 and 10W-30 oil plus OEM filter needs based on fleet patterns from local delivery vans to commuter cars, avoiding overstock and stockouts. Expect 15% lower holding costs, with one client saving $8K last year by timing bulk orders perfectly amid fluctuating wholesale prices from suppliers like Valvoline.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our three-bay quick-lube shop lost two hours daily chasing 5W-30 oil stock updates from unreliable vendors. Now, the system sends predictive alerts via mobile app before we run low on filters too, and we've bumped oil changes from 45 to 60 a week during peak mornings. Saved us about $12,000 in the first six months—no exaggeration, especially with summer demand spikes."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, Quick Lube Express in Dallas, TX
"Manual scheduling was killing us during rush hours at our four-bay facility; double-books on lift bays happened twice a week, delaying tire rotations alongside oil services. Their custom AI sorts it all out, integrating seamlessly with our Shop-Ware POS for real-time bay assignments. Turnaround jumped 25%, and my techs actually get lunch breaks now without overtime creep."
Sara Patel
Service Manager, AutoCare Centers
"We were buried in follow-up calls for synthetic oil reminders on our corporate fleet of 50 sedans and SUVs. The AI handles automated SMS and email campaigns tied to VIN histories, and repeat business is up 18% since implementation three months ago during our quarterly maintenance cycle. It's like having an extra manager without the payroll hit, keeping utilization above 85%."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this AI handle variable oil types for different vehicles?
Our custom AI scans vehicle details via VIN integration to recommend and track specific oils—like 5W-30 synthetic for imports or conventional for domestics. It auto-adjusts inventory pulls and billing, reducing mix-ups by 90%. We've implemented this in shops handling 200+ vehicles weekly, ensuring accurate upsells without manual checks. Setup takes two weeks, with ongoing tweaks based on your service mix.
What if my shop uses legacy POS software?
No problem—our team specializes in bridging old systems with modern AI. We create secure, two-way APIs to sync data like customer histories and payments seamlessly. One client with a 15-year-old system saw full integration in under a month, cutting data entry errors that previously cost $5K yearly. It's built robustly to avoid disruptions during oil change peaks.
Can the automation predict busy periods for staffing?
Absolutely. The AI analyzes historical data, weather patterns, and local events to forecast rushes—like post-weekend oil change spikes. It suggests staffing adjustments, helping shops maintain 95% bay utilization. A mid-sized chain we worked with avoided overtime costs by $7K last quarter through these insights, all tailored to your location's unique patterns.
Is the system secure for customer vehicle data?
Security is paramount in automotive. We use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with standards like GDPR and CCPA, storing data in fortified cloud environments. Access is role-based—techs see only service needs, not full profiles. Shops report zero breaches since deployment, with built-in audits for compliance during inspections or warranty claims.
How long until we see ROI from this automation?
Most clients see payback in 3-6 months through time savings alone. For a typical four-bay shop, that's 25 hours weekly reclaimed, equating to $20K+ yearly at standard labor rates. We track metrics like reduced no-shows (down 40%) and faster throughput, with one partner hitting breakeven in eight weeks after automating reminders and inventory.
Does it integrate with my supplier for auto-orders?
Yes, we build direct API connections to vendors like those for Pennzoil or Mobil 1, automating reorders when stock dips below thresholds. This prevents delays that idle bays, saving 10-15% on rush fees. Implementation involves mapping your exact SKUs, and we've done this for 30+ shops, ensuring flawless syncing without manual intervention.
