The "Seasonal Overload" Problem
Chasing supplier invoices for fresh flower deliveries that arrive daily, often leading to 20-30% discrepancies in stock counts due to unverified PO matches
Manual entry errors spiking during high-volume periods like Mother's Day or Valentine's prep, with error rates jumping to 15% on order fulfillment data
Delayed payments to vendors causing stock shortages before peak trends, such as missing out on trending tulip imports during spring rushes
Juggling customer deposit invoices with custom bouquet orders processed via online platforms, leading to mismatched fulfillment records
End-of-month reconciliation bogged down by seasonal sales fluctuations, with variances up to 25% from flash sales on eco-friendly blooms
Wasted time matching invoices to event contracts for weddings and corporate gigs, often delaying B2B settlement by 7-10 days

What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, Valentine's week was a nightmare—we'd spend nights reconciling invoices for all the extra 5,000 roses we ordered via our online suppliers. Now, it's fully automated with PO matching, and we saved about 12 hours that week alone. Our cash flow improved by 35%, and we even took on two more corporate event orders without hiring extra help, boosting our Q1 revenue."
Sarah Jenkins
Owner, Bloom Haven Florist (Online Flower Delivery Service)
"I was skeptical at first, but their custom setup integrated seamlessly with my Shopify store and inventory system. Last Mother's Day, invoice errors on custom orders dropped to zero, and we processed vendor payments 40% faster—settling within 3 days instead of 10. It's like having an extra staff member who never calls in sick, handling our 200+ daily bouquet fulfillments effortlessly."
Mike Rodriguez
Operations Manager, Petal Pushers E-commerce Florist
"Dealing with supplier bills for seasonal imports like 2,000 stems of exotic orchids was killing our margins with 10-day delays. After implementing their AI, we cut processing time from 20 hours to 4 per week via automated reconciliation. The ROI was clear in just two months—more time for creative designs on our site and less for paperwork, increasing our net margins by 18%."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this handle the variable pricing from flower suppliers?
Great question—florist suppliers often fluctuate prices based on market trends, like rose costs in winter. Our AI is trained on your historical data to recognize patterns and auto-capture variable line items accurately. It cross-references with your contracts, flagging anomalies for quick review. This cuts manual checks by 80%, ensuring payments match exactly what you ordered. We've seen florists save thousands in overpayments this way, especially during off-seasons when imports get pricey. Plus, it's all integrated into your workflow, so you get notifications on your phone if something needs a human eye.
Will this integrate with my existing florist software like QuickBooks?
Absolutely, integration is our specialty. We build two-way API connections to QuickBooks or similar tools, pulling in invoice data directly and pushing approvals back without a hitch. For a typical florist, this means no more re-entering details from bouquet sales or supplier bills. It creates a unified flow: an invoice arrives via email, AI extracts it, matches to your inventory, and schedules payment—all syncing live. Clients report setup in under two weeks, with zero disruptions to daily ops. If you're using something niche like floral POS software, we customize the bridge to fit seamlessly.
What about security for customer payment details?
Security is non-negotiable in retail, especially with customer deposits for events. Our systems use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with standards like PCI DSS for any payment touches. We build role-based access so only authorized staff see sensitive info, and AI anonymizes data during processing. For florists, this protects wedding client details while automating invoices. Regular audits and backups ensure nothing's at risk during busy seasons. One client, a mid-sized shop, avoided a potential breach scare entirely after switching to us—peace of mind that lets you focus on creativity.
How quickly can I see time savings after implementation?
You're probably thinking about that holiday rush coming up. Most florists notice savings within the first week—think 5-7 hours back immediately from automated scanning and approvals. Full ROI hits in 1-2 months as the system learns your patterns, like recurring vendor invoices. We start with a pilot on your busiest invoice stream, say supplier bills, to prove it fast. Long-term, it's 15+ hours weekly, redirecting time to customer-facing tasks that drive sales. Our process includes training to maximize this from day one, tailored to your shop's pace.
Is this scalable for a growing florist with multiple locations?
Yes, we design for growth right from the start. If you're expanding from one shop to a chain, our AI scales effortlessly—handling increased volume without extra costs. It centralizes invoicing across locations, with location-specific rules for things like regional supplier deals. For example, one florist client grew from two to five stores; their system adapted in days, saving an additional 10 hours per location on reconciliations. We monitor usage and optimize proactively, ensuring it supports your ambitions, whether adding e-commerce or more events.
What if I have paper invoices from local wholesalers?
Paper invoices are common in the floral world, especially with small local growers. Our AI uses advanced OCR to scan and digitize them instantly via mobile upload or scanner integration. It extracts details like quantities of peonies or delivery dates, even if handwriting's involved. Accuracy is over 98%, with auto-flagging for unclear items. This eliminates the old shoebox method, integrating straight into your digital flow. Florists love how it speeds up end-of-day processing, turning a chore into a 2-minute task and preventing payment delays that could wilt your supply chain.
