Why Choose Us
We craft custom AI workflows that mirror your tire shop's unique operations—from inventory tracking to customer service. Forget one-size-fits-all software that buckles under high-volume tire changes. Our enterprise-grade systems integrate seamlessly with your POS, supplier APIs, and service bays. Built for efficiency, they handle the grit of daily tire rotations and alignments, ensuring your workflow hums like a perfectly balanced wheel.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency Gains Built for Your Shop
Precision Inventory Management
Precision Inventory Management: Our AI forecasts tire demand with 95% accuracy, analyzing sales history, weather trends, and regional vehicle registration data for models like SUVs and sedans. No more overstocking all-seasons in summer or scrambling for winter treads—reduce holding costs by 30% within the first quarter and keep service bays turning over profitably with just-in-time deliveries from major suppliers like Michelin or Bridgestone.
Streamlined Service Scheduling
Streamlined Service Scheduling: Automate appointments to fill 20% more slots daily across tire rotations, alignments, and brake services. The system predicts peak times from historical data on oil changes and seasonal inspections, routes jobs to available techs based on ASE certifications, and alerts on delays—like a pit crew syncing without the chaos—boosting revenue per bay by optimizing four-wheel alignments during rush hours.
Enhanced Customer Retention
Enhanced Customer Retention: Unified profiles track tire mileage, tread depth, and service needs for fleets of light-duty trucks and passenger cars, triggering personalized reminders for rotations and alignments. Shops see 25% higher repeat visits within six months, turning one-time fixes into loyal fleets without generic CRM overload, by integrating with OBD-II scan data for proactive maintenance alerts.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we were buried in spreadsheets tracking inventory for radial and bias-ply tires—lost hours every shift during peak fall demand. Their custom system now auto-orders from suppliers like Goodyear and flags low stock on winter tires before shortages hit. We've cut stockouts by half and added two extra bays' worth of wheel balancing services last quarter, increasing throughput by 40 jobs per week."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, Reynolds Tire Pros
"Scheduling was a nightmare with walk-ins for tire patches clashing against booked alignments. The AI they built prioritizes jobs based on our shop flow for sedans and pickups, and it's freed up my techs for more suspension work. Revenue's up 18% in six months from optimized bay utilization, no extra hires needed, even during back-to-school rushes."
Sarah Lopez
Manager, Apex Tire Services
"We juggled three apps for customer data on tire pressures and alignments, missing upsells on rotations for high-mileage vans. AIQ integrated everything into one dashboard—now it suggests upgrades to low-profile performance tires based on vehicle VIN history and driving patterns. Closed 15% more add-ons last year without pushing sales scripts, boosting average ticket size by $75 per rotation."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your AI handle fluctuating tire demand in different seasons?
Our custom models analyze historical sales, local weather patterns, and regional trends to predict needs accurately. For instance, we factor in winter tire surges by cross-referencing past data with current forecasts. This prevents overbuying or shortages, with shops reporting 35% better inventory turnover. We build it into your system, integrating directly with suppliers for auto-reorders—tailored to your shop's volume, not generic averages. Setup takes two weeks, and it evolves with your data for ongoing precision.
Will this replace our existing POS or scheduling software?
No, we enhance it. Our AI layers on top via secure APIs, pulling tire stock and appointment data without disrupting your flow. For a typical tire shop, this means seamless syncing between your POS for sales logging and our forecasting engine. We've integrated with systems like Shop-Ware and Mitchell 1 in past projects, reducing data entry by 60%. You retain control, and we ensure compatibility from day one through thorough testing.
What kind of ROI can a tire shop expect from this?
Expect 25-40% efficiency gains in the first quarter. Shops see reduced labor on inventory (saving 10-15 hours weekly) and higher bay utilization, translating to $50K+ annual revenue lift for mid-sized operations. Our benchmarks show a 3-6 month payback, based on custom builds for similar automotive clients. We track metrics like service throughput and margin per tire, providing dashboards to monitor progress—no vague promises, just data-driven results.
How secure is the system for handling customer vehicle data?
Enterprise-grade security is core. We use encrypted APIs, role-based access, and compliance with standards like GDPR for any PII. In tire shops, this protects VINs, service histories, and payment info. Our builds include audit logs for every access, and we've passed security audits for regulated clients. Data stays in your owned system, not cloud rentals—reducing breach risks by 80% compared to fragmented tools. We conduct vulnerability scans pre-launch.
Can this scale if we add more locations or services?
Absolutely, designed for growth. The architecture supports multi-shop syncing, centralizing inventory across sites while allowing local customizations—like region-specific tire prefs. As you expand to brakes or alignments, we modularize additions without rebuilding. Clients scaling from one to three shops report 20% cost savings on oversight. It's flexible, built on scalable frameworks, ensuring performance holds during volume jumps.
How long does implementation take for a tire shop?
Typically 4-8 weeks, depending on complexity. We start with a workflow audit (1 week), build prototypes (2-3 weeks), then integrate and test (1-2 weeks). For tire-specific features like stock forecasting, we use your existing data for quick calibration. Post-launch, we provide hands-on training. This phased approach minimizes disruption—shops stay open, with phased rollouts to avoid peak-season hiccups.
