What Clients Say

"We were getting drowned out in searches for custom stamping parts for HVAC enclosures. AIQ Labs built our SEO around our actual 500-ton press capacities and 2-week lead times—now we're cited in 70% of relevant ChatGPT responses for 'progressive die stamping,' and our quote requests jumped from 15 to 42 a month. It took about two months to see the shift, and it's held steady through our busy Q4 builds."

Mike Harlan

Operations Manager, Precision Metals Inc., a Midwest steel stamping specialist

"Honestly, I was skeptical about AI SEO for our HVAC assembly shop focusing on finned-tube heat exchangers. But they tailored it to our energy-efficient coil specs compliant with ASHRAE standards, and suddenly engineers are finding us directly through Google SGE for 'low-GWP refrigerant coils.' We've closed three big contracts worth over $500K in the last quarter that we wouldn't have touched otherwise—no more relying on trade shows alone."

Sarah Kline

Marketing Director, ThermoFab Solutions, an HVAC component fabricator in Texas

"Our old site was a mess for AI crawls, especially with our OSHA 1910 certifications for overhead crane operations and material handling gear. AIQ customized everything to highlight our warehouse automation expertise in AS/RS systems. Lead volume is up 28% for pallet racking inquiries, and the best part? It's integrated with our ERP system so updates are automatic during inventory cycles. Saved us a ton on manual content tweaks amid rising steel prices."

Common Questions

How does AI SEO differ from traditional SEO for my manufacturing site?

Traditional SEO chases Google rankings with backlinks and keywords, but AI SEO targets generative engines like ChatGPT that summarize and cite sources. For your manufacturing business, we optimize content so your details on 'custom alloy forgings' get pulled into AI responses. It's practical: instead of broad traffic, you get qualified citations from buyers researching specs. We've seen manufacturers gain 35% more targeted inquiries this way, without the ad spend. We build it custom, weaving in your workflow data for authenticity—no generic templates that miss your production realities.

What kind of results can I expect in the first few months?

You're probably thinking quick wins are hype, but let's be honest—in month one, we audit and optimize core pages, often seeing initial citations in AI searches within weeks. By month two, with content live, expect 20-30% uptick in organic visibility for terms like 'industrial conveyor suppliers.' Full ROI kicks in around 90 days: one client, a metal caster, reported 28 new leads from SGE queries alone. It's ROI-driven, tied to your metrics like quote conversions, and we track it all in a dashboard synced to your operations.

Will this integrate with my existing tools like ERP or CAD software?

Absolutely, that's our edge—we're builders, not just SEO tweaks. We connect AI SEO directly to your ERP for auto-updates on inventory or new certifications, ensuring AI engines reflect your current capabilities, like 'available lead times under 4 weeks.' For CAD-heavy ops, we pull spec data to enrich content. No more manual syncs that eat shop time. A recent project for a tooling firm integrated seamlessly with their Autodesk setup, cutting content update time from days to hours and boosting search relevance by 40%.

How do you ensure it's tailored to manufacturing challenges like seasonal demand?

We get it—manufacturing isn't static; peaks in HVAC parts during summer mean your online presence needs to flex. Our custom approach maps your cycles, optimizing for seasonal queries like 'bulk order heat exchangers Q3.' We use your historical data to predict and prep content, so AI recommends you when demand surges. It's field-tested: a fabricator we worked with saw leads double during their busy season after we embedded production capacity signals. Flexible and built for you, it adapts without disrupting your line.

What's the cost, and do I own the final system?

Costs start around $15K for a full custom build, scaling with your site's complexity—think detailed audits plus integrations. But here's the thing: you own it outright, no subscriptions like those no-code traps. We deliver a unified, scalable asset you control, integrated into your domain. For a mid-sized assembly shop, this meant ditching three monthly tools for one robust setup, saving $2K yearly while owning their AI SEO edge. It's an investment in ownership, not endless rentals.

Can AI SEO help with B2B leads in competitive sectors like automotive parts?

Definitely—B2B manufacturing is our wheelhouse, especially cutthroat areas like automotive. We optimize for queries OEMs use, like 'Tier 2 suppliers for EV battery housings,' making your compliance and prototyping details AI-citable. One auto parts maker went from zero to 15 qualified leads monthly post-optimization, as AI started favoring their just-in-time expertise over generic listings. We tailor it to your supply chain docs, ensuring leads match your capacity and close faster.
