What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's dashboard, we were constantly short on 5W-30 synthetic during weekend rushes, losing out on quick upsells for air filters. Now, with real-time inventory tracking tied to our bay logs, we've cut errors in half and bumped our monthly revenue by $4,200 just from better stocking of high-demand viscosities over the past year."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, QuickLube Express in Dallas, TX
"Our old pen-and-paper system couldn't handle the dual-bay chaos with overlapping oil changes—we had double-bookings every shift. The custom AIQ setup gives us a clear view of schedules, tech assignments, and lift availability, dropping customer wait times from 20 minutes to under 10 for routine services. It's like having an extra ASE-certified mechanic without the payroll hit."
Sarah Patel
Operations Manager, AutoFlow Services Chain in Atlanta
"We used to sift through paper logs for repeat customer insights on oil change intervals, missing loyalty chances for transmission fluid upsells. This dashboard flags oil change histories and mileage patterns automatically, helping us launch a rewards program that brought back 15% more regulars in the first quarter, boosting repeat PM visits by 22%."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this dashboard integrate with my existing oil change management software?
We start by auditing your current setup, whether it's something like Shop-Ware or Mitchell1. Our team builds deep, two-way API connections that pull in real-time data on appointments, inventory, and service logs without disrupting operations. For a typical oil change shop, this means instant visibility into stock levels from your POS while pushing completed jobs back automatically. Unlike superficial plugins that break with updates, our custom integrations are engineered for 99% reliability, saving you the headaches of manual syncing. We've done this for over 100 automotive clients, ensuring compatibility with legacy systems too—no rip-and-replace needed.
What specific KPIs can I track for my oil change services?
Our dashboards are tailored to oil change metrics that drive results, like average job time (targeting under 30 minutes), oil type usage rates, bay utilization percentages, and upsell conversion for extras like wiper fluid. You can monitor repeat customer intervals based on mileage data, inventory turnover for synthetics versus conventionals, and technician efficiency scores. We pull benchmarks from industry data—such as the NAPA average of $45 revenue per oil change—and customize alerts for deviations. This setup has helped shops identify bottlenecks, like slow filter installs, leading to 20% productivity boosts. Everything's visualized in intuitive charts, accessible via web or mobile for quick decisions.
How long does it take to build and deploy a custom dashboard for our shop?
From initial consultation to live deployment, we typically complete the build in 4-6 weeks for a standard oil change operation. Week one involves mapping your workflows and data sources. The next two to three weeks are for coding the custom UI and integrations, using our advanced frameworks for speed and security. Final testing and training take about a week, ensuring your team is comfortable with features like real-time inventory alerts. We've accelerated this for urgent needs, delivering MVPs in under a month. Post-launch, we provide two weeks of support to optimize, so you're not left guessing—unlike template-based solutions that drag on for months.
Is the dashboard accessible on mobile for use in the shop?
Absolutely, our unified dashboards are fully responsive and optimized for tablets and phones, perfect for oil change environments where managers need on-the-go access. Picture checking bay status or updating oil stock while overseeing a busy morning rush—no desktop required. We build with progressive web app tech, so it works offline for basic views and syncs when connected, handling spotty shop Wi-Fi. Features like quick-scan job completion or alert notifications ensure you're always in control. Clients report 35% faster issue resolution this way, as techs can log details directly from the floor, reducing errors in high-volume settings.
What kind of support do you offer after implementation?
We treat deployment as the start, not the end. For the first 90 days, you get dedicated support from our automotive specialists, including weekly check-ins to refine KPIs like service throughput. Our system includes built-in diagnostics for any hiccups, and we offer unlimited remote tweaks to adapt to changes, such as adding a new oil type. Beyond that, annual maintenance ensures scalability as your shop grows, all at a fraction of subscription costs. We've maintained 98% client satisfaction in follow-ups, with quick resolutions to issues like integrating new supplier APIs—empowering you with ownership, not ongoing dependency.
Can this solution scale if we expand to multiple oil change locations?
Yes, our architecture is designed for growth, handling multi-site data aggregation seamlessly. For chains with 2-5 locations, we create a centralized dashboard that rolls up metrics like total oil consumption across shops while allowing location-specific views. As you add bays or sites, the system scales without rebuilds, supporting up to 500 users if needed. We've helped regional oil change networks reduce cross-location discrepancies by 40%, unifying inventory forecasts and performance tracking. It's built on enterprise-grade frameworks, so you're ready for expansion—think of it as a high-octane engine that powers up as your business accelerates.
