The "After-Hours Lead Leak" Problem
Urgent roadside tire emergencies, such as blowouts on highways during late-night commutes, go unanswered, frustrating drivers and diverting them to 24-hour competitors like national chains
Weekend surges in flat tire calls from family road trips overwhelm limited staff, resulting in lost bookings for on-site patch-and-plug repairs
Seasonal alignment demands during winter tire swaps for SUVs and trucks get missed, eroding customer loyalty amid harsh weather and increased pothole damage
Early morning inquiries about tire pressure checks for cold-weather deflation slip through cracks, delaying revenue from routine PSI adjustments and safety inspections
Holiday rush for snow tire installations on all-wheel-drive vehicles leads to voicemail black holes, costing shops thousands in peak profits from studded tire demands
Fleet tire maintenance calls from commercial truck drivers for retread assessments ignored off-hours, missing high-volume B2B opportunities in logistics tire management
Custom-Built AI Voice Agents: Your Tire Shop's Always-On Receptionist
With over a decade architecting enterprise-grade AI for automotive operations, we've helped tire shops reclaim 30% more leads through proven, scalable voice systems.
Why Choose Us
Picture your tire shop as a finely tuned engine, humming efficiently even in the dead of night. Our AI voice agents are custom-engineered for the unique rhythm of tire services—handling everything from blowout emergencies to wheel balancing quotes with natural, authoritative responses. Unlike off-the-shelf bots that stumble on tire-specific jargon, we integrate deeply with your scheduling software, inventory systems, and CRM. This creates a seamless workflow: a driver calls at 2 AM about a shredded sidewall, the AI qualifies the need, checks real-time stock for that tire size, and books the slot—all without waking your team. Built from the ground up, these agents evolve with your shop's needs, ensuring industry-leading reliability that captures every opportunity, 24/7.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Round-the-Clock Efficiency for Your Tire Shop
Capture Every Urgent Lead Instantly
Capture Every Urgent Lead Instantly: Tire emergencies like sidewall punctures don't clock out—neither do our AI agents. They respond in under 5 seconds to after-hours calls, qualifying needs such as exact puncture locations via GPS or recommending spare tire usage, boosting lead conversion by 40% within the first quarter and ensuring no driver seeks out mobile tire services from rivals. This 24/7 vigilance turns potential losses into booked bays for vulcanizing repairs, maximizing revenue during off-peak hours like 10 PM to 6 AM.
Elevate Customer Satisfaction Without Extra Headcount
Elevate Customer Satisfaction Without Extra Headcount: Customers expect tire shops to be as reliable as the radials they sell, especially for time-sensitive issues like uneven tread wear. Our agents provide polite, expert guidance on tire rotations every 5,000-8,000 miles or seasonal swaps for all-season to winter tires anytime, reducing wait times to under 2 minutes and building trust. Shops report a 25% uptick in repeat business within six months, as instant responses prevent frustration and position your service as the go-to for reliable, always-available support during blizzards or rush hours.
Streamline Operations and Cut Costs
Streamline Operations and Cut Costs: Ditch the voicemail trap that buries calls under layers of callbacks for queries on load-index ratings. AI handles routine inquiries like tire size compatibility for specific rim diameters or pricing for OEM vs. aftermarket options, freeing your team for high-value tasks like four-wheel alignments. Expect 35% lower labor costs on call handling within the first year, with every interaction feeding data back to refine forecasts for inventory—like stocking more 225/65R17 all-weathers before storms hit, based on historical call patterns.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our tire shop lost entire weekends to unanswered calls about highway blowouts—drivers just limped to the next exit. Now, the voice agent books mobile patch repairs overnight, even verifying tread depth over the phone, and we've added 15% more service slots without hiring extras in the past year. It's like having a night shift that never tires, capturing leads from 2 AM semis."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, Reynolds Tire Pros in Denver, CO
"Winter tire swaps were total chaos with calls piling up after 5 PM for SUV conversions. Their custom AI handles quotes and bookings flawlessly, even asking about vehicle make and bolt pattern for perfect fits on 18-inch rims. In the first month of last season, we captured $8K in lost revenue from holiday inquiries for Michelin X-Ice tires—absolute game-changer for our small team during peak snow months."
Sara Chen
Service Manager, Apex Tire Services in Minneapolis, MN
"We integrated the agent with our inventory system last quarter, and it now tells customers real-time availability for 19.5-inch commercial retreads during evening rushes for fleet semis. No more guesswork or follow-ups on DOT compliance; we've cut missed opportunities by half and seen happier fleet clients who need tires pronto, adding $15K in quarterly B2B contracts."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI voice agent handle emergency tire calls at 3 AM?
Our agents are programmed to recognize urgency in calls, like mentions of 'flat tire' or 'pulling over now.' They respond immediately with calming, expert guidance—asking for location, vehicle details, and symptoms—while checking your shop's availability. If it's bookable, they schedule a tow or slot; otherwise, they offer advice like safe jacking techniques and set a callback. This ensures drivers feel supported, with 95% of emergencies converted to appointments, all without disturbing your sleep.
Can the AI integrate with my existing tire shop software?
Absolutely. We custom-build integrations with popular systems like Shop-Ware, TireMaster, or your custom POS. The agent pulls real-time data on bay availability, tire stock (e.g., 225/45R17 in stock?), and customer history. For instance, if a repeat caller asks about alignments, it references past services to suggest upsells. This two-way sync eliminates manual entry, reduces errors by 90%, and keeps your workflow as smooth as a fresh set of radials.
What if a customer has a complicated tire issue the AI can't resolve?
We've designed intelligent handoffs: the AI detects complexity, like debates over tire warranties or unusual vibrations, and seamlessly transfers the call to your on-duty team with full context—transcripts, details, and even suggested next steps. It notifies via text or app, ensuring no info is lost. In practice, only 15% of calls need escalation, allowing your staff to focus on high-value interactions while the AI handles the routine 85%.
How much does a custom AI voice agent cost for a tire shop?
Pricing starts at $2,500 for the initial build, tailored to your shop's call volume and integrations, with ongoing maintenance at $300/month. This covers unlimited calls, updates, and analytics—far below hiring a night receptionist ($40K/year). For a mid-sized shop with 200 monthly inquiries, ROI hits in 2-3 months via captured leads (average $150/tire service). We provide a detailed quote after assessing your needs, ensuring it's an investment that pays off in every booked bay.
Is the AI voice agent compliant with automotive industry regulations?
Yes, we adhere to standards like TCPA for calls and data privacy under CCPA/GDPR, especially for vehicle info. Agents disclose they're AI upfront, record only with consent, and secure all data with encryption. For tire shops, this means safe handling of VIN numbers or service histories without breaches. Our regulated deployments, like in fleet services, have zero compliance issues over 2 years, giving you peace of mind amid rising cyber threats in automotive.
How quickly can we get the AI voice agent up and running?
From consultation to launch, it's typically 4-6 weeks for a full custom setup. Week 1: We audit your calls and systems. Weeks 2-3: Build and test with sample tire scenarios. Week 4: Integrate and train on your data. Then, soft-launch with monitoring to iron out kinks, like fine-tuning responses for local accents. Post-go-live, we optimize weekly, ensuring your shop hits the ground running with 24/7 coverage that feels native from day one.
