What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency That Drives Your Bottom Line
Maximized Bay Utilization
Maximized Bay Utilization: Our custom AI predicts demand for tire services like alignments, rotations, and wheel balances, filling 92% of bays during slow periods—up from the industry average of 65%. No more idle lifts waiting for the next flat repair or rushed overhauls during rush hour; just steady revenue from optimized throughput across multi-point inspections.
Reduced No-Shows and Boosted Loyalty
Reduced No-Shows and Boosted Loyalty: Intelligent reminders tailored to customer history, such as upcoming tread wear alerts for all-season tires, cut no-shows by 30%, based on our deployments in 50+ tire shops over the past two years. Customers return for timely tire checks and rotations, increasing lifetime value by 18% through automated follow-ups on mileage-based wear patterns.
Seamless Parts-to-Schedule Sync
Seamless Parts-to-Schedule Sync: Link scheduling directly to inventory for tires, batteries, and wiper blades, avoiding 40% of delays from out-of-stock all-terrain tires during installs. Technicians get instant alerts via mobile dashboards, keeping jobs on track with real-time ETA updates and maintaining customer satisfaction high—mirroring the precision of a well-tuned engine in a full vehicle diagnostic.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we'd lose two bays a day to double-bookings during snow tire swap season, forcing us to turn away walk-ins. Their custom system now auto-adjusts for unexpected flat tire emergencies, and we've added 15% more appointments without hiring extra staff. It's like having an extra mechanic who never sleeps, especially during our busiest fall rushes."
Mike Rivera
Service Manager, Riverside Tire & Auto Pros in Riverside, CA
"No-shows were killing us—customers forgetting wheel balance and alignment jobs cost us $2K monthly in lost tire upsells. After implementation in just one month, reminders via text dropped that to under $500 in the first quarter. The integration with our tire inventory for run-flat options is spot-on; no more promising installs we couldn't deliver on time."
Sarah Chen
Owner, Apex Auto & Tire Center in Seattle, WA
"We juggled three apps for scheduling alignments and brake services, and techs were twiddling thumbs half the day waiting for parts. AIQ built us a unified dashboard that balances loads across our five bays, factoring in tire rotation queues. Revenue's up 22% year-over-year from better multi-service flows, and the team's happier with predictable shifts during peak summer driving seasons."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your custom scheduling differ from off-the-shelf tools like Shopmonkey?
Off-the-shelf platforms force tire shops into rigid templates that ignore nuances like variable tire install times or seasonal bay demands. AIQ Labs builds a system molded to your operations—integrating directly with your existing POS and inventory without brittle add-ons. We've seen shops reduce scheduling errors by 40% in the first month, as it learns from your data to predict and prevent issues like overbooked rotations. Unlike subscriptions that lock you in, you own this asset, scalable for growth without extra fees. Our approach stems from real automotive pain points, ensuring it fits like a custom wheel alignment.
What if my tire shop has multiple locations—can this handle that?
Absolutely. We design for multi-site tire operations, creating a unified dashboard that oversees bay availability across locations while allowing site-specific rules, like prioritizing snow tires at northern branches. The AI balances loads centrally, preventing imbalances that plague 60% of chain shops. During deployment, we map your workflows to avoid conflicts, and post-launch, it syncs real-time data for seamless handoffs. One client with three locations cut inter-site coordination time from 10 hours weekly to under 2, boosting overall efficiency by 28%. It's built to scale without complexity.
How quickly can we see results after implementation?
Most tire shops notice immediate wins: double-booking alerts kick in day one, and automated reminders start reducing no-shows within the first week. Full ROI hits in 4-6 weeks, with bay utilization jumping 30-50% as the AI refines predictions from your historical data. We include a 30-day optimization phase to tweak for your peak times, like summer tire swaps. Unlike generic tools that take months to configure, our custom build launches trained on your specifics, delivering measurable gains fast—our average client reports 20% revenue lift in quarter one.
Is the system secure for handling customer tire service data?
Security is non-negotiable in automotive, where customer details tie to warranties and payments. We use enterprise-grade encryption and role-based access, ensuring only authorized staff see booking info. Compliant with standards like PCI for payments and data sovereignty laws, it stores everything in your owned infrastructure—no third-party clouds risking breaches. We've audited against tire industry regs, and in our 150+ deployments, zero data incidents. Plus, audit logs track every change, perfect for disputes on service histories. Your data stays yours, protected like a locked service bay.
Can it integrate with our current tire inventory software?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like TireMaster or your custom POS. The AI pulls live stock levels to block bookings for unavailable sizes, then auto-orders from suppliers when low. This eliminates the 35% of delays from parts mismatches that plague manual systems. Setup involves mapping APIs during discovery, tested rigorously to handle edge cases like bulk tire deliveries. A recent integration for a mid-sized shop synced flawlessly, cutting stockout-related reschedules by 45%. It's not superficial plugs—it's a robust link that strengthens your entire operation.
What support do you provide after the system is built?
Ongoing support is baked in: We offer 90 days of complimentary monitoring and tweaks post-launch, ensuring the AI adapts to your evolving needs, like new tire lines or staff changes. After that, flexible maintenance plans keep it humming without lock-in. Our team—former automotive ops pros—provides 24/7 priority access for issues, plus quarterly reviews to optimize performance against benchmarks. Clients rave about our responsiveness; one tire chain resolved a seasonal glitch in hours, not days. We're partners in your efficiency, not just builders.
