Our AI analyzes POS data, local weather patterns, and historical sales to forecast needs, slashing holding costs by 25% and enabling just-in-time reorders from suppliers like Michelin or Goodyear. With automated invoicing for alignments, clients recoup costs in 2-3 months via error-free billing.

What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, manual counts of all-season and snow tires every shift during winter rushes were total chaos, leading to frequent stockouts of 225/55R17 radials. Now, the system auto-tracks inventory via RFID and alerts us on lows, saving 18 hours weekly. We've halved errors on four-wheel alignments and upsold 25% more winter tire sets last season, boosting revenue by $8K."
Mike Rivera
Service Manager, Precision Tire & Alignment Center
"Scheduling was a nightmare with walk-ins for emergency flats and curb rash repairs clashing with booked alignments. AIQ's automation syncs our four bays in real-time, handles automated SMS reminders, and dropped no-shows from 20% to 4% in two months. Setup took four weeks, and faster invoicing for balances has improved cash flow by 30% quarterly."
Sarah Chen
Owner, Urban Wheel & Tire Specialists
"We were switching between three apps for tire inventory and supplier billing, but integrations failed during rush hours for Goodyear reorders. AIQ built a unified platform that pulls data from Bridgestone portals automatically—reorders for alloys and radials are now predictive. Saved $12K in overstock last quarter, and my techs handle 20% more mounts without overtime stress."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle peak seasons like summer tire changes?
Our system is designed with automotive seasonality in mind. It uses AI to analyze historical data from your shop—such as past summer rushes for all-season tires—and automatically ramps up inventory alerts and scheduling buffers. For instance, it can prioritize bays for quick swaps and send preemptive customer notifications. Clients report handling 30% more volume without added staff, as the automation absorbs the surge in manual tasks like stock checks and confirmations. We customize thresholds based on your location's weather patterns, ensuring you're never caught short.
What integrations work with my existing tire shop POS system?
We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with popular POS systems like Shop-Ware, Tekmetric, or even legacy setups like Mitchell1. Beyond that, we connect to supplier APIs from Bridgestone, Continental, and others for real-time pricing and availability. The process starts with a free audit to map your current tools—no superficial links here. Our custom code ensures data flows bidirectionally, like pulling service notes directly into invoices. This eliminates double-entry, which plagues 60% of tire shops, and we've deployed this in over 100 locations without disrupting daily operations.
How long does it take to see ROI from this workflow automation?
Most tire shops see positive ROI within 2-4 months. By automating tasks like manual scheduling and inventory logs, you immediately save 15-25 hours weekly—translating to $2,000+ in labor costs at typical tech rates. Add in reduced errors on high-ticket services like alignments, and payback accelerates. One client, a mid-sized shop, recouped their investment in eight weeks through fewer stockouts and 20% higher throughput. We provide a detailed ROI projection during consultation, based on your shop's metrics, to set clear expectations.
Is the system secure for handling customer and inventory data?
Security is non-negotiable in automotive, where you're dealing with sensitive customer info and compliance like GDPR for tire warranties. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, role-based access (e.g., techs see only bay schedules, managers get full reports), and regular audits. Unlike no-code platforms prone to breaches, our custom solutions include SOC 2 compliance features and secure API gateways. For tire shops, this means protected data on serial numbers and service histories. We've never had a data incident in our deployments, and we offer ongoing monitoring to keep your operations locked down.
Can this scale if my tire shop adds more locations or services?
Absolutely—scalability is baked in from the start. Our architecture supports multi-site dashboards, where a central system syncs inventory across locations, like sharing tire stock between your main shop and a satellite bay. As you expand into EV tire services or alignments, we modularize the automation for easy additions without rebuilding. Clients growing from one to three shops report seamless transitions, with unified reporting cutting oversight time by 40%. We design for your five-year plan, ensuring the system evolves with your business, not against it.
What training do you provide for my shop team?
We go beyond basic handbooks with hands-on, role-specific training tailored to tire shop dynamics. Over two sessions— one virtual, one on-site— we cover everything from using the AI for quick stock pulls during a busy shift to troubleshooting scheduling conflicts. Techs learn voice commands for hands-free updates, while managers get dashboard deep-dives. This minimizes disruption, with most teams up to speed in a week. Follow-up includes a dedicated Slack channel for questions, and we've achieved 95% adoption rates by focusing on practical scenarios like handling a rush of flat repairs.
