Unlock Efficiency with Actionable Insights

Accelerate Inventory Turnover

Accelerate Inventory Turnover: Track vehicle days on lot (DOL) in real-time via integrated DMS feeds, identifying slow-movers like last year's SUV models before they tie up capital. Dealerships using our dashboards report a 22% improvement in turns within 90 days, freeing up cash for high-demand EVs and reducing holding costs by $5,000 monthly on average.

Boost Sales Conversion Rates

Boost Sales Conversion Rates: Visualize customer traffic from showroom beacons and interaction data in CRM to spot hot leads instantly, such as families eyeing minivans. No more chasing ghosts—our systems highlight upsell opportunities, like pairing all-weather mats with test drives, leading to 18% higher close rates in showrooms over six months.

Streamline Service Operations

Streamline Service Operations: Monitor bay utilization and repair order (RO) times across departments with predictive alerts for bottlenecks during oil change surges. This results in 35% faster turnaround for routine maintenance like alignments, keeping customers loyal and reviews positive with NPS scores rising 20 points in peak seasons.

What Clients Say

"Before AIQ Labs, we were juggling data from CDK Global DMS and our lot scanner just to figure out our monthly inventory turns—it was chaos during end-of-month rushes with 45-day DOL piling up on sedans. Their custom dashboard pulled everything together with real-time alerts, and now our team cuts reporting from 4 hours to 15 minutes. We've turned over 15% more units in the last quarter without adding staff, especially clearing out those lingering hybrids."

Mike Reynolds

General Manager, Apex Chevrolet Dealership

"Our sales floor was blind to real-time customer patterns from the Reynolds CRM, missing easy add-ons like extended warranties on F-150 pickups. The dashboard they built shows walk-in trends from door counters and ties them to CRM notes on trade-ins. It's boosted our F&I revenue by 12% in three months—real numbers from $2,500 average deals, not fluff."

Sarah Chen

Sales Director, Metro Ford Lincoln

"Service delays were killing our repeat business; parts tracking was a nightmare across Reynolds and OEM vendors for filters and wiper blades. AIQ's integration gave us visibility into reorder needs via automated thresholds, shaving two days off average repair times for transmissions. Customers notice, and our satisfaction scores jumped from 4.2 to 4.7 stars on Google in just two quarters."

Common Questions

How do your dashboards integrate with existing dealership software?

We specialize in seamless integrations with leading DMS platforms like CDK Global, Reynolds & Reynolds, and Elektra. Our team maps your data flows during discovery, using secure APIs for real-time syncing without disrupting operations. For instance, inventory updates from the lot feed directly into sales dashboards, eliminating manual entry. This approach has cut integration time by 50% for our clients, ensuring your systems talk to each other like a well-oiled V8 engine. We also handle CRM ties to tools like Salesforce or DealerSocket, providing a unified view of customer interactions across departments.

What makes your custom dashboards different from off-the-shelf options?

Unlike generic tools that force your workflow into rigid templates, our dashboards are engineered specifically for car dealership challenges, like tracking vehicle days-on-lot or service bay efficiency. We build with advanced frameworks for scalability, avoiding the crashes common in no-code solutions during busy months. Clients own the code outright, dodging subscription traps—think $2,000 saved yearly. We've seen dealerships reduce decision latency from days to minutes, directly impacting sales floors where every hour counts in competitive markets.

How long does it take to implement a custom dashboard for my dealership?

Timeline varies by complexity, but most implementations take 6-8 weeks from discovery to launch. We start with a two-week audit of your DMS and CRM, then 3-4 weeks for building and testing, followed by a smooth rollout. For a mid-sized dealership with standard integrations, we've deployed in as little as 5 weeks. This includes hands-on training for your team to ensure adoption. Post-launch, we provide 30 days of monitoring to tweak for peak performance, like handling end-of-month rushes without hiccups.

Can these dashboards help with multi-location dealership management?

Absolutely—our solutions scale effortlessly across multiple sites, consolidating data from various DMS instances into one central view. Imagine overseeing inventory across three lots: real-time alerts flag imbalances, like excess SUVs at one site and shortages at another. We use secure, centralized hosting to aggregate metrics on sales performance and service ROI, helping group managers allocate resources smarter. One client with four locations reported a 28% improvement in cross-site transfers, cutting logistics costs significantly while maintaining local visibility.

What kind of support do you offer after deployment?

Our partnership doesn't end at launch. We include 90 days of dedicated support for optimizations, plus optional quarterly reviews to adapt to changes like new model lineups or regulatory updates. Our team handles updates remotely, ensuring your dashboard evolves with your business— no downtime for routine maintenance. For urgent issues, like a sudden API glitch during promo season, we offer 24-hour response. This ongoing commitment has kept client systems running at 99.9% uptime, focusing your energy on customers rather than tech headaches.

Are your dashboards secure for handling sensitive customer data?

Security is paramount in automotive, where financing and personal data are involved. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, compliant with standards like SOC 2 and GDPR equivalents for U.S. dealerships. Role-based access prevents unauthorized views—sales sees leads, finance sees approvals. Regular audits and vulnerability scans protect against breaches, and we integrate only with verified APIs. A recent client audit confirmed zero vulnerabilities, giving peace of mind amid rising cyber threats in the industry.
