What Clients Say

"Before AIQ, I was spending Fridays just reconciling invoices from outdoor deck jobs and pergola builds—now it's done in under 15 minutes, and I've taken on two extra custom furniture projects this quarter without hiring additional crew."

Mike Harlan

Owner, Harlan Custom Carpentry & Decks

"The AI cut list generator saved us from a major error on a full kitchen remodel involving custom islands; it flagged a 2-inch measurement mismatch we missed in the blueprints. We're saving about 12 hours a week on planning, and clients love the real-time progress photos of cabinet fittings our system sends automatically."

Common Questions

How does your AI handle the variability in custom carpentry projects?

Custom projects vary wildly—from a simple shelf to a full staircase. Our AI is trained on your historical data, learning patterns like seasonal demand for outdoor decks or rush jobs for remodels. We start by analyzing 6-12 months of your past quotes and timelines, then build models that adapt to specifics like client changes or material substitutions. For instance, if oak prices spike, it auto-suggests alternatives without delaying your schedule. This tailored approach has helped carpenters maintain 95% on-time delivery, even during supply crunches, ensuring your workflow stays fluid and profitable.

What if I already use tools like Jobber or QuickBooks?

We specialize in deep, two-way integrations that make your existing tools work smarter together. No ripping out what you know—our AI pulls job data from Jobber for scheduling, syncs expenses to QuickBooks for real-time invoicing, and even overlays AI insights like predictive delays. We've connected these for dozens of trades firms, eliminating manual exports that eat hours. Setup takes 2-4 weeks, with zero downtime, and our systems handle the quirks, like variable labor rates for finish work. Result: A single pane of glass for your operations, cutting errors by 80%.

How much time does implementation take for a small carpentry shop?

For shops with 5-20 employees, we wrap discovery and build in 4-6 weeks, focusing on high-impact areas like quoting and tracking first. It's phased: Week 1 maps your flow, weeks 2-3 prototype core automations, and weeks 4-6 test on live jobs. We provide training via video calls and on-site if needed, so your team ramps up quickly. Post-launch, we monitor for tweaks, often seeing 10-15 hour savings immediately. Unlike cookie-cutter solutions, ours scales to your pace—no overwhelming overhauls, just steady wins that let you bid more confidently.

Can this AI help with client communications during builds?

Absolutely—communication breakdowns cost carpenters repeat business. Our AI generates personalized updates, like 'Your cabinet doors arrived; install set for Tuesday,' pulled from site logs and sent via email or text. It even handles queries, confirming timelines or suggesting add-ons based on project stage. For a recent client, this reduced follow-up calls by 70%, freeing foremen for actual work. We customize tones to match your brand—professional yet approachable—and integrate with your CRM for seamless handoffs, building trust that leads to referrals.

What's the ROI timeline for investing in your custom AI?

Most carpenters see payback in 3-6 months through direct savings: 20 hours/week at $50/hour equals $4,000 monthly recouped, plus faster payments adding 15% to cash flow. We benchmark against industry stats—trades lose $10K yearly to inefficiencies—and track your metrics from day one. For a mid-sized shop, one firm hit 150% ROI in quarter one by automating material bids alone. Our no-subscription model means ongoing costs are minimal, just updates, making it a smart asset that grows with your business.

Is the system secure for sensitive client data like home addresses?

Security is non-negotiable in home services, where you're trusted with homes and plans. We use enterprise-grade encryption, compliant with GDPR and SOC 2, storing data in fortified AWS environments. Access is role-based—only you see client specifics—and AI processes info without retaining unnecessary details. We've audited systems for trades handling blueprints and schedules, preventing breaches that plague 40% of small firms. Regular penetration tests and your input on protocols ensure peace of mind, so you focus on crafting, not worrying.
