Why Choose Us
At AIQ Labs, we don't deploy off-the-shelf bots. We engineer custom AI voice agents that speak your language—discussing trim levels, lease terms, and service specials with natural fluency. Integrated directly into your dealership management system, these agents qualify leads in real-time, schedule service bays around the clock, and escalate complex queries to your team seamlessly. Proven to reduce no-shows by 35%, our solutions turn every ring into revenue.
What Makes Us Different:
Capture Every Opportunity, 24/7 Without the Overhead
Never Miss a Lead, Day or Night
Never Miss a Lead, Day or Night: Your AI agent answers every call instantly, qualifying buyers on preferences for models like the Ford Explorer and urgency for features like towing capacity. Dealerships see a 50% uplift in booked test drives, ensuring no midnight browser becomes a morning competitor's customer—like that family SUV seeker calling at 10 PM now gets an instant inventory match and a next-day appointment slot via integrated CRM.
Boost Customer Satisfaction with Instant Service
Boost Customer Satisfaction with Instant Service: Customers expect responses faster than a pit stop. Our agents provide round-the-clock support for oil changes on fleet vehicles, warranty checks via VIN lookup, or recall info on Takata airbags, reducing wait times to seconds. This leads to 4.8-star reviews and repeat business, as seen in benchmarks where availability alone drives 28% higher loyalty scores for certified pre-owned programs.
Scale Without Adding Headcount
Scale Without Adding Headcount: Handle peak loads—like end-of-month rushes for lease specials—effortlessly. The AI manages routine inquiries on tire rotations or battery replacements, freeing your staff for high-value closes on hybrid models. Efficiency gains average 25 hours per week, letting you focus on showroom traffic while the system books service bays 24/7, much like an autopilot keeping the sales engine running smooth during EV inventory surges.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's voice agent, we'd lose 20-30 leads a weekend to unanswered calls about test drives for our Ram 1500 pickups. Now, it's booking slots at 3 AM for Monday mornings—our Q2 sales jumped 15% without extra hires, capturing those late-night fleet inquiries we used to miss. It's like having a night shift that never sleeps."
Mike Reynolds
General Manager, Apex Ford Dealership in Dallas, TX
"Service calls after hours were killing us; customers would go to the indie shop down the street for urgent alternator diagnostics on their commutes. The AI handles those questions and books bays instantly—cut our no-show rate from 40% to 12% in three months, keeping our Honda bays at 95% utilization year-round. Real game-changer for our bays staying full."
Sarah Lopez
Service Director, Urban Auto Group
"Integrated it with our CDK system last fall, and it's been flawless for pulling instant KBB values on trade-ins like used Jeeps. Prospects calling about them get quick appraisals and appointments set—we captured an extra $150K in upsells from evening inquiries alone, turning voicemails into VPP-qualified deals. No more dust-gathering messages."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI voice agent handle complex questions like financing options?
Our agents are custom-built with your dealership's specific F&I details, pulling real-time rates from your lender portals. For instance, if a caller asks about 0% APR on a 2024 F-150, it qualifies them on credit range, explains terms conversationally, and books a finance consult—all without human intervention. We've fine-tuned this for 95% resolution rates, escalating only edge cases like unique credit scenarios to your team with a transcript. This setup has helped dealerships close 25% more deals from initial calls, keeping the process efficient and buyer-focused.
Can it integrate with my existing dealership management system?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with systems like CDK Global, Reynolds & Reynolds, or Dealertrack. The AI accesses live data for stock checks—say, confirming a Tacoma in Arctic White is available—then updates your CRM with call notes and preferences. No more manual entry; it's bidirectional, so changes in your DMS reflect instantly in agent responses. Clients report slashing data errors by 80%, turning fragmented tools into a unified powerhouse that drives efficiency without the integration headaches of generic bots.
What if a customer needs to speak to a human during the call?
Seamless handoffs are core to our design. The AI detects escalation cues—like frustration over a warranty dispute—and transfers the call with full context: transcript, qualified details, and even suggested next steps for your rep. It's like passing the baton in a relay; the human picks up exactly where the AI left off. In practice, this reduces resolution time by 40% and boosts satisfaction scores, as customers feel heard without repeating themselves. We've optimized this for high-volume dealerships, ensuring no lead drops during transfers.
Is the AI available for international or non-English speaking customers?
Yes, our custom agents support multiple languages, including Spanish, French, and Mandarin, tailored to your local demographics. For a dealership in a bilingual market, it switches seamlessly based on caller accent or selection, handling queries like '¿Cuáles son las opciones de leasing para el SUV?' with accurate, localized responses. We train on region-specific terms, like metric conversions for Canadian buyers, achieving 90% comprehension rates. This expands your reach without added staff, capturing diverse leads that might otherwise bounce to competitors.
How secure is the call data and customer information?
Security is non-negotiable. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all calls, complying with GDPR, CCPA, and TCPA standards—essential for handling sensitive info like SSNs during trade-ins. Data stays within your owned system, not cloud rentals prone to breaches. Features include opt-in recording, anonymized analytics, and audit logs for every interaction. Dealerships using our solution report zero compliance issues, with built-in safeguards like voice consent prompts, giving you peace of mind while focusing on sales growth in a regulated industry.
What's the setup time and ongoing maintenance like?
Setup takes 4-6 weeks: week one for discovery, two-three for building and testing with your data, and the rest for integration and training. It's hands-off for you—we handle it all. Post-launch, maintenance is minimal; our team monitors performance via a dedicated dashboard, pushing updates quarterly based on call trends, like adapting to new model year launches. Costs? Clients see ROI in 2-3 months through captured leads, with no surprise fees—unlike subscription models that nickel-and-dime you.
