What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Quantifiable Gains in Dealership Productivity
Slash Administrative Time by 25 Hours Weekly
Slash Administrative Time by 25 Hours Weekly: Automate VIN entry into DMS systems and automated title e-filings to state DMVs, eliminating manual data entry for 100+ vehicles monthly. Dealership teams redirect efforts to floor sales, boosting close rates by 15% on high-margin trucks and SUVs, while cutting overtime costs by $5,000 monthly on paperwork alone.
Achieve 3x ROI Through Efficiency and Error Reduction
Achieve 3x ROI Through Efficiency and Error Reduction: AI automates OBD-II compliance scans for emissions and integrates with ADP for parts procurement, preventing errors like overstocking low-demand hybrids. Clients see payback in 4-6 months, with ongoing savings from optimized inventory turnover rates of 8-10 times annually, matching top NADA benchmarks.
Boost Lead Conversion with Intelligent Prioritization
Boost Lead Conversion with Intelligent Prioritization: AI analyzes test drive data from CRM integrations like Dealertrack, scoring leads on factors like dwell time on EV models and financing history. This drives 20% higher conversion rates, turning walk-ins into signed BHPH contracts in under 48 hours, streamlining from inquiry to delivery without manual CRM scrubbing.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team wasted Fridays decoding VINs and processing title transfers for 50+ trade-ins weekly, often delaying wholesale payouts. Now, it's fully automated with e-title integration – we saved 15 hours that first month, dropped our documentation error rate from 12% to under 2%, and closed two extra deals from the freed-up time. It's like adding a title clerk without the $60K salary."
Mike Reynolds
General Manager, Apex Chevrolet Dealership
"Inventory mismatches were killing us during peak truck-buying season; we'd overorder diesel parts for F-150s that sat unsold in our auction lot. AIQ Labs' predictive forecasting cut our holding costs by 25% in three months, with a unified dashboard tracking stock across our three Manheim-sourced locations. It's transformed how we scale without excess capital tied up in slow-movers."
Sarah Patel
Operations Director, River City Ford Dealerships
"Scheduling service bays for alignments and transmission flushes was a nightmare, with double-bookings on busy Saturdays costing us $2,000 in lost revenue weekly. After AIQ Labs' rollout, no-shows dropped 35% via automated SMS reminders, techs boosted productivity by 20% on warranty work, and we hit ROI in five months. The plug-and-play with CDK Global was effortless."

Service Manager, Horizon Toyota

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does AI workflow automation integrate with my existing dealership management system?
We start by conducting a thorough audit of your DMS, whether it's CDK Global, Reynolds, or another platform. Our engineers then develop custom APIs for two-way data sync, ensuring automations like inventory updates or appointment bookings happen in real-time without disrupting your operations. For instance, VIN data flows directly from sales to service bays, eliminating double-entry. This integration is built to be robust, handling peak loads like month-end closings, and we provide full documentation for your IT team. Clients typically see seamless rollout in 4-6 weeks, with zero downtime during go-live.
What kind of time savings can a mid-sized dealership expect?
Based on our deployments, dealerships with 50-100 staff save an average of 25 hours per week on manual tasks alone. This includes automating title processing, which used to take 4-5 hours daily for high-volume trades, and service reminders that previously required manual calls. One client, a 75-employee operation, redirected those hours to sales training, lifting conversions by 18%. Savings scale with your size – smaller lots might hit 15 hours, while larger ones exceed 30. We quantify this upfront with a ROI projection, targeting payback in under six months through reduced labor and error costs.
Is the solution customizable for multi-location dealerships?
Absolutely – our systems are designed for scalability across locations. We create a centralized dashboard that aggregates data from all sites, like unified inventory views to avoid duplicate orders between branches. For example, if one lot in Dallas overstocks hybrids, the AI adjusts forecasts for your Austin site automatically. Security features ensure location-specific access, complying with data privacy regs. We've helped chains with 5+ outlets reduce inter-site miscommunications by 40%, streamlining operations as if it were a single entity. Customization starts with mapping your unique multi-site workflows.
How do you ensure compliance with automotive regulations?
Compliance is baked in from the design phase. Our AI workflows adhere to standards like TCPA for lead communications, FTC guidelines for financing disclosures, and state-specific emissions reporting. We use encrypted data handling and audit trails for every automated action, such as title transfers or safety checks. In one deployment, this cut audit preparation time from days to hours. Our team includes experts familiar with NADA guidelines, and we conduct regular updates to match evolving regs. You get full transparency with logs exportable to your compliance software, minimizing risks in a heavily regulated industry.
What support do you provide after implementation?
Post-launch, we offer 90 days of hands-on optimization, monitoring metrics like automation uptime (targeting 99.9%) and user adoption. This includes weekly check-ins to tweak things, such as refining lead scoring based on your actual conversion data. Beyond that, our maintenance package provides 24/7 monitoring, quarterly updates for new features like enhanced voice agents, and a dedicated account manager. For a recent client, this support helped scale from 10 to 20 bays without hiccups. If issues arise, response times average under 2 hours – we're builders who stick around to ensure long-term success.
Can this automation handle peak seasons like tax refund periods?
Yes, our systems are stress-tested for surges, like the 30-50% traffic spikes during tax season. AI forecasting anticipates demand for popular models, auto-adjusting inventory and staffing alerts. In a past project, a dealership handled 2x test drives weekly without added manual oversight, thanks to predictive scheduling that balanced bays efficiently. We build in buffers for high-volume data processing, integrating with your CRM to prioritize hot leads instantly. This prevents bottlenecks, keeping your team focused on closing deals rather than firefighting overloads.
