No more missed leads—your team focuses on closing deals on certified pre-owned vehicles, not chasing scattered data across apps.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, our service bay was chaos—repair orders bouncing between the DMS and legacy parts software, leaving techs idle on diagnostics. Now, everything syncs in real-time via a unified dashboard; we've shaved two hours off daily vehicle handoffs and upsold 15% more extended service contracts on our fleet accounts last quarter alone."
Mike Reynolds
Service Manager, Apex Chevrolet Dealership Group
"Jobber's subscriptions were draining us with endless add-ons just for basic VIN inventory integration. AIQ custom-built a system that fully owns our data—no vendor lock-in. It resolved our technician scheduling conflicts during high-volume lease return inspections, boosting bay utilization by 28% and cutting overtime by half in the first three months."
Sarah Patel
Operations Director, Urban Honda Multi-Site Dealership
"We were hemorrhaging sales leads because follow-ups on post-service upsells weren't automated in our CRM. Their custom AI now flags hot prospects from routine oil change visits, prioritizing hybrid model accessories, and we've captured a 22% lift in add-on revenue without hiring extra sales staff over the past six months."

General Manager, Highway Ford Lincoln Dealership

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this custom system differ from Jobber for my dealership?
Jobber offers a pre-packaged tool great for basic scheduling, but it often requires pricey add-ons for automotive specifics like VIN-based parts lookup or warranty integrations, leading to fragmented workflows. Our AIQ Labs solution is built custom for your dealership—integrating your DMS, inventory, and CRM into one owned system. No subscriptions mean you avoid the average $12K yearly trap. We've helped dealerships like yours reduce errors by 35% through tailored AI that predicts service needs based on your historical data, ensuring flexibility for unique challenges like fleet servicing or luxury certifications. Deployment takes 4-6 weeks, with full ownership from day one.
What if my dealership uses existing software like Reynolds or CDK?
Perfect—we specialize in deep integrations with popular DMS platforms like Reynolds, CDK, or Dealertrack. Unlike Jobber's limited connectors that can break during updates, our custom APIs create bidirectional syncs for real-time data flow, such as pulling service history directly into repair orders. This eliminates manual re-entry, which wastes 10-15 hours weekly for most shops. Our team maps your exact setup during discovery, building safeguards against API changes. Dealerships report 40% faster month-end reporting after implementation, all while you retain full control and ownership of the unified system.
How much does a custom system cost compared to Jobber subscriptions?
Jobber starts at $49/month but balloons to $200+ with integrations, totaling $5K+ yearly for mid-sized dealerships—plus hidden costs from inefficiencies. Our upfront build fee, starting at $25K for core multi-service automations, delivers ownership and ROI within 6-9 months through 30% efficiency gains. No recurring fees mean long-term savings of 50-70%. We customize based on your scale—say, adding AI for parts forecasting adds $5K but prevents $20K in annual overstock. Think of it as investing in your dealership's engine rather than renting a generic one; our clients break even via reduced overtime and higher throughput.
Can this handle high-volume service during peak times like oil change promotions?
Absolutely—our systems are engineered for scalability, handling 1,000+ daily transactions without lag, unlike Jobber's tiered limits that throttle during rushes. We use advanced frameworks to auto-scale resources, predicting spikes from promo calendars or seasonal trends. For instance, AI routes appointments to available bays while alerting on parts shortages. A recent client, a 50-bay dealership, managed a 200% volume surge during a recall event with zero double-bookings, improving tech productivity by 25%. We stress-test for your specific peaks, ensuring smooth operations year-round.
What kind of support do you provide after launch?
Post-launch, you get our dedicated support portal with 24/7 monitoring and quarterly optimizations—no vendor tickets like with Jobber. Our team, including on-call automotive specialists, handles tweaks for evolving needs, like new state emissions rules. Initial training covers your staff in 2-3 sessions, focusing on shop-floor usability. Unlike subscription models that nickel-and-dime for updates, ownership includes free core maintenance for the first year, then optional retainers at $500/month. Clients love the proactive alerts that prevent issues, keeping uptime at 99.5% and your operations humming.
Is the system secure for handling customer vehicle data?
Security is paramount in automotive, where data breaches can cost $4M on average per NADA stats. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, role-based access (e.g., techs see only bay data), and compliance with standards like GDPR and CCPA—tailored for VIN and personal info. Unlike Jobber's shared infrastructure, your custom system runs on isolated, owned servers with AI anomaly detection for threats. We conduct penetration testing pre-launch and provide audit logs for insurance claims. Dealerships using our solutions have zero reported incidents, giving peace of mind amid rising cyber risks in the industry.
