The "Scaling Ceiling" Problem
Inventory mismatches for popular tire sizes like 225/65R17 during peak fall tire change seasons leave service bays idle and customers waiting for hours
Manual tire rotation scheduling across multiple service bays using outdated calendars causes double-bookings and lost revenue from delayed alignments and balances
Fragmented customer records in disparate CRM systems fail to track tire tread depth and wear patterns, missing upsell opportunities on wheel alignments and TPMS recalibrations
Inaccurate demand forecasting for tire sizes and types like LT265/70R17 for trucks leads to stockouts during winter rush, frustrating fleet clients with downtime
Disconnected POS and supplier systems delay reorders, tying up cash flow in slow-moving inventory
Paper-based warranty tracking for tire replacements under DOT regulations creates compliance risks and customer disputes over prorated mileage claims

Clients see 25% higher customer satisfaction scores from seamless service tracking, positioning your shop as the go-to for fleets needing rapid tire replacements and retail alignments alike.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, our three locations were drowning in Excel sheets for tire inventory—stockouts on 17-inch all-seasons cost us $20K last winter alone during the first snowfalls. Their custom system now forecasts demand based on local snow reports and past rotation data, and we've cut discrepancies by half in just four months. It's like having a pit crew for our operations, keeping bays full year-round."
Mike Rodriguez
Owner, Rodriguez Tire Pros
"We juggled QuickBooks, separate scheduling apps, and manual supplier calls for tire deliveries, which killed our efficiency during rush hours with back-to-back alignments. AIQ built us a unified dashboard that integrates everything, including real-time bay availability, saving my team 15 hours a week on admin. Revenue's up 28% since rollout—no exaggeration, especially from faster fleet turnarounds."
Sarah Jenkins
General Manager, Apex Auto Services
"Expanding to alignments meant chaos with disconnected tools; tire installations weren't linking to service records for tread wear monitoring. Their AI solution automates it all, tracking from initial mount to recall notifications under Michelin warranties. We avoided a major warranty headache last quarter on 500 tires and gained repeat business from better upsells on camber adjustments."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your custom software handle seasonal tire demand fluctuations?
Our AI models analyze historical sales, local weather patterns, and even road condition data from public APIs to forecast demand accurately—up to 85% precision in tests with similar shops. For instance, during winter prep, it flags high-demand sizes like 225/65R17 early, automating orders to avoid stockouts. This scales effortlessly as your business grows, integrating with your POS to adjust in real time without manual intervention. We've seen clients reduce excess inventory by 35%, freeing cash for expansions.
Can this integrate with our existing tire shop management software?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with popular systems like TireMaster or Shop-Ware, pulling in tire stock levels, service histories, and customer data for a single source of truth. Unlike superficial plugins, our custom code ensures bidirectional sync—updates in one system reflect instantly elsewhere. For a multi-service shop, this means tire rotations automatically link to brake inspections, cutting errors by 60%. Setup takes 4-6 weeks, with full ownership so you're not locked into vendor dependencies.
What makes your solution scalable for multi-location tire shops?
Built on enterprise-grade architecture, our software uses modular cloud infrastructure that expands without performance dips—handling 10 locations or 100 with the same efficiency. Centralized dashboards let you monitor tire inventory and bay usage across sites, while AI optimizes transfers between stores based on demand. One client scaled from two to five shops and saw no increase in admin time, thanks to automated reporting. It's designed for growth, with no bottlenecks, ensuring your operations rev up as you add services like alignments.
How secure is the data for customer tire records and warranties?
Security is paramount in automotive, where tire warranties involve sensitive fleet data. We implement end-to-end encryption, role-based access (e.g., techs see only bay assignments), and compliance with standards like GDPR and DOT regs. Regular audits and AI anomaly detection prevent breaches—our systems have a 99.9% uptime with zero incidents in three years. For tire shops, this means secure digital logging of tread depths and installations, reducing dispute risks by 75% and building trust with commercial clients.
What's the timeline and cost for custom development?
Timelines vary by complexity but typically span 8-12 weeks for a full tire shop system, starting with a two-week discovery phase. Costs are fixed-project based, averaging $50K-$150K for SMBs, far below ongoing subscriptions that can hit $10K/year per tool. We prioritize ROI: clients recoup in 6-9 months via efficiency gains, like 30% faster service throughput. No hidden fees— you own the code, scaling costs only with optional add-ons like new integrations.
Do you offer training for my shop staff on the new software?
Yes, comprehensive training is included, tailored to tire techs and managers. We provide on-site or virtual sessions focusing on daily tasks like tire scanning and scheduling, using intuitive interfaces that feel like an extension of your current tools. Follow-up support includes a 90-day optimization period with our experts. Shops report 95% adoption rates, with staff handling complex queries—like pulling warranty history—in under 30 seconds, boosting overall productivity without steep learning curves.
