Custom-Built AI Voice Agents for Your Manufacturing Workflow
We've deployed these in factories from automotive assembly to custom fabrication, handling real-world chaos like sudden machine breakdowns and tight deadlines.
Why Choose Us
Here's the thing: manufacturing doesn't stop at 5 PM. Your lines run 24/7, and so should your customer interactions. At AIQ Labs, we build AI voice agents tailored to your exact operations—like integrating with your ERP for instant inventory checks or scheduling deliveries around shift changes. You're probably thinking, 'Another chatbot?' No, these are sophisticated systems that sound human, qualify leads on the spot, and escalate to your team only when it matters. We ditch the generic templates for something forged in the heat of production floors, ensuring seamless fit with tools like SAP or your custom inventory trackers.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Non-Stop Opportunities Without the Overhead
Never Miss a Lead, Day or Night
Picture this: a subcontractor calls at 2 AM about urgent rebar for a high-rise pour. Our AI agent qualifies them instantly, checks inventory via ERP integration, books a next-day delivery, and logs it in your CRM. Result? You capture <span class="gradient">30% more leads</span> from off-hours, turning night-shift downtime into secured contracts without hiring extra dispatchers.
Boost Customer Satisfaction in High-Stakes Moments
Construction clients demand quick answers on load-bearing specs or steel lead times for beam installations. Our agents provide them round-the-clock, reducing frustration from delayed responses. One steel erector saw their Net Promoter Score jump 25 points within three months after implementation—happy clients mean faster project approvals and repeat bids.
Streamline Operations, Cut Response Times to Seconds
Forget waiting for voicemails to pile up on forklift maintenance inquiries. Agents handle them instantly, pulling real-time data from your CMMS to confirm parts availability or schedule repairs on the fly. This frees your site supervisors from phone duty, letting them focus on safety inspections— we've seen teams reclaim 10 hours a week, boosting on-site productivity by 15%.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's voice agent, we'd lose half our weekend calls from subcontractors needing rush rebar quotes for bridge projects. Now, it handles them 24/7 for our steel fabrication line, pulling live inventory data, and we've closed three big contracts worth $500K that would've slipped away. Setup took just two weeks, integrated seamlessly with our ERP—no headaches at all."
Mike Harlan
Operations Manager, Precision Steel Works
"Our assembly plant runs three shifts fabricating chassis components, and missing calls during changeovers was killing our lead gen. The AI agent qualifies prospects like a pro, even probing about welding tolerances and machine specs. Last quarter, it booked five on-site demos that turned into $150K in new CNC equipment sales. Feels like having an extra salesperson who never sleeps or takes breaks."
Sarah Kline
Plant Supervisor, AutoForge Manufacturing
"Holidays used to mean voicemail hell for urgent inquiries on precast concrete availability during site builds. Since switching to their custom agent, responses are immediate, tied into our ERP for real-time stock checks on forms and molds. Cut our lost opportunities by 40% in the last peak season—finally, a tool built for the grind of construction timelines, not some generic office setup."

General Manager, Component Dynamics

Build and Integrate
Our engineers code it from the ground up, linking to your systems like inventory trackers or scheduling software. Testing happens in real scenarios, like simulating a rush order during peak hours.
Deploy and Optimize
Go live with 24/7 monitoring. We tweak based on call data—improving accuracy for things like alloy inquiries—ensuring it evolves with your operations for peak performance.
Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI voice agent handle technical manufacturing questions?
Let's be honest—your calls often involve specifics like weld strengths or cycle times. We train the agent on your exact documentation, product catalogs, and past interactions, so it can reference details accurately. For instance, if a supplier asks about lead times for aluminum extrusions, it pulls from your ERP in seconds and responds naturally. If it's too complex, it seamlessly transfers to a human, logging everything for context. This setup has helped manufacturers reduce misquotes by 35%, ensuring trust and closing deals faster. We start with a deep dive into your ops to make it spot-on.
What if the agent can't resolve a call—does it just hang up?
Absolutely not. Our agents are designed with smart escalation: if a query stumps it—like a custom alloy spec not in the database—it politely gathers details and routes to your on-call team via text or app notification. You're probably thinking about those awkward handoffs; we make them smooth by pre-filling notes in your system. In one deployment for a parts fabricator, this cut resolution time from hours to minutes, boosting satisfaction during off-hours rushes. It's all custom-coded to fit your workflow, so no generic fails.
How quickly can we get this up and running in our factory?
From consultation to live calls? Typically 4-6 weeks for a full custom build. We kick off with mapping your processes—like integrating with shop floor software—then prototype in a week or two. Testing mirrors real scenarios, such as handling a simulated breakdown inquiry. Once deployed, it's 24/7 ready, with tweaks ongoing. A recent manufacturing client went live in under a month, capturing leads during their expansion phase without disrupting production. Speed without skimping on quality—that's our builder approach.
Will this integrate with our existing tools like ERP or CRM?
Yes, deeply and bidirectionally. We don't do superficial plugs; our engineers create robust APIs that sync with systems like SAP, Oracle, or even custom inventory trackers. For example, when a call comes in for widget orders, the agent checks stock levels live and updates your CRM with the lead score. This eliminates data silos that plague manufacturing ops. We've integrated with over 20 tools in past projects, reducing manual entry by 80% for teams. If your setup is unique, we'll adapt—no one-size-fits-all here.
Is the AI voice agent secure for sensitive manufacturing data?
Security is non-negotiable in your world of proprietary designs and supplier contracts. We build with end-to-end encryption, compliant with standards like GDPR and ISO 27001, and store calls/transcripts in secure, client-owned servers. Access is role-based—only your team sees what matters. For a defense contractor we worked with, we added extra layers for classified specs, ensuring zero breaches. Regular audits and minimal data retention keep risks low. You're getting a system that's fortified like your factory perimeter, protecting IP while enabling 24/7 service.
How do we measure ROI from these AI voice agents?
We focus on tangible metrics like leads captured, conversion rates, and time saved—key for ROI-driven manufacturing. Post-launch, our custom dashboard shows call volume versus closed deals, say turning 15% more inquiries into $50K orders. Track reduced staffing costs too; one client offset the build with savings from not hiring a night receptionist. We baseline your current gaps (like 25% missed calls) and report monthly progress. It's practical: if it's not boosting your bottom line in 3 months, we optimize until it does. No fluff, just field-tested results.
