The "Quote Chaos" Problem

Juggling paper notes and spreadsheets for OBD-II diagnostics and fault code logging during roadside breakdowns

Inaccurate OEM and aftermarket parts pricing from outdated vendor catalogs while diagnosing vehicles on-site

Delayed approvals for high-value repairs like transmission rebuilds or torque converter replacements due to manual authorization processes

Missed upsell opportunities on brake pad replacements and rotor resurfacing due to rushed manual labor time calculations

Customer walkaways from unprofessional, hand-scribbled estimates during routine oil changes and filter replacements

End-of-day data entry errors syncing mobile service logs with shop inventory for parts like belts, hoses, and fluids

Unlock Quantifiable Gains in Your Daily Operations

Save 12+ Hours Weekly on Quote Prep

Save 12+ Hours Weekly on Quote Prep: Imagine ditching the clipboard chaos for VIN-scanned diagnostics. Our system auto-populates quotes from OBD-II data and vehicle service histories, slashing manual input by integrating with tools like ALLDATA. Mechanics report closing 25% more jobs per week, with one fleet owner noting a direct $50K boost in annual revenue from faster turnaround on semi-truck maintenance contracts within the first year.

Achieve 4x ROI Through Error Reduction

Achieve 4x ROI Through Error Reduction: Manual quotes often lead to 15-20% pricing discrepancies on parts like alternators or exhaust systems, eating into margins from tire rotations to full engine rebuilds. Our AI ensures accuracy by cross-referencing real-time supplier APIs, reducing disputes and rework by 80%. Businesses see payback in 3 months, with efficiency gains compounding as the system learns your pricing patterns—like a well-tuned ECU optimizing fuel injection timing for peak performance.

Boost Productivity with On-the-Go Customization

Boost Productivity with On-the-Go Customization: Tailored to your workflow, the automation adapts to mobile scenarios, from quick lube stops with synthetic oil changes to complex collision estimates involving frame straightening. Gain 30% higher customer retention as quotes arrive polished and prompt via SMS or email, turning one-off wheel alignments into loyal service contracts without the drag of back-office delays in processing ADAS calibrations.

What Clients Say

"Before AIQ Labs, quoting for our mobile fleet was a nightmare—scribbling OBD codes and VIN details in the truck, then fighting to input them into our shop management software later. Now, the system generates spot-on estimates right from the scanner, integrating with our parts inventory for real-time availability. It's saving my guys about 10 hours a week on diagnostics alone. We closed three big commercial accounts last month—two for HVAC fleet vans and one for delivery trucks—because quotes hit customer inboxes instantly with embedded photos of wear items."

Mike Reynolds

Operations Manager, RoadRunner Mobile Fleet Services

"I was skeptical about AI for quotes, but this custom build nailed it for our multi-bay shop. It factors in our regional parts hikes for items like catalytic converters and labor variances for EV battery diagnostics automatically. Cut our error rate from 18% to under 2% on everything from alignments to suspension overhauls, and we're seeing real savings—no more callbacks for underquoted jobs. Implementation took just two weeks, including API setup with our NAPA supplier, and it's already paid for itself with $15K in recovered margins this quarter."

Sarah Patel

Owner, Apex Auto Repair & Collision Center

"As a solo mobile mechanic, time is everything in this gig economy. Their automation pulls from my QuickBooks and supplier APIs like O'Reilly Auto Parts to spit out professional PDFs on my phone, complete with labor matrices for tasks like timing belt replacements. I used to lose half a day on paperwork for routine inspections; now, I focus on wrenching and upselling fluids. Revenue's up 22% this quarter from faster job starts on everything from imports to domestics—no exaggeration, especially with the rush of hybrid repairs."

Common Questions

How does this automation handle variable parts costs for mobile services?

Our system connects directly to live supplier APIs, pulling current prices for everything from brake pads to alternators. For mobile mechanics, it factors in location-based surcharges and fuel costs automatically. We've seen shops save 12-15% on quoting inaccuracies this way. Setup involves mapping your preferred vendors, and the AI learns your typical markups over time for even sharper estimates. It's all custom-coded to avoid the delays of generic tools.

Can it integrate with my existing diagnostic tools and software?

Absolutely. We specialize in two-way integrations with popular automotive software like ALLDATA, Mitchell, or even basic OBD scanners. For instance, it can ingest diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) to auto-suggest repair scopes and costs. No more manual entry—quotes generate in under 30 seconds. Our process starts with a workflow audit to ensure compatibility, and we handle any custom APIs needed, giving you a unified system without the usual integration headaches.

What kind of time savings can a small mobile mechanic expect?

Based on our deployments, solo operators save 10-15 hours weekly by automating quote drafting, which used to involve spreadsheets and calls to parts desks. One client went from 45-minute estimates to 5 minutes on average, boosting daily jobs from 4 to 6. ROI hits within 2-3 months through higher close rates and less admin time. It's tailored to your volume—low for quick lubes, detailed for complex diagnostics—ensuring efficiency scales with your business.

Is the system secure for handling customer vehicle data?

Security is non-negotiable in automotive, where VINs and repair histories are sensitive. We use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with standards like GDPR and CCPA, plus auto-industry specifics for data privacy. Your quotes and client info stay on owned servers, not rented clouds prone to breaches. Features include role-based access for your team and audit logs for every quote generated. We've audited systems for 50+ shops without a single incident, prioritizing your data like a locked tool chest.

How much customization is involved, and what's the timeline?

Every build is 100% tailored—no templates here. We map your exact process, like quoting for fleet vs. retail clients, and incorporate unique elements such as seasonal tire promotions. Timeline: Discovery takes 1 week, build 3-4 weeks, testing and launch another 1-2. Total under 2 months for a production-ready system. Post-launch, we provide tweaks for free in the first quarter, ensuring it fits like a glove on your daily routes.

Will this work offline for remote or rural service calls?

Yes, designed for mobile realities. The core quote engine runs offline, caching recent parts data and your pricing rules. When connectivity returns—like after a farm call—it syncs seamlessly with suppliers and your CRM. This prevents downtime frustrations common in rural automotive work. We've optimized it for low-bandwidth scenarios, with one client in upstate New York reporting zero disruptions across 200+ mobile jobs monthly.
