What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team wasted Fridays reconciling client timelines across Outlook emails, Salesforce notes, and Excel spreadsheets—it was total chaos in our strategy practice. Now, the AI integrates everything into a unified dashboard, and we've saved 18 billable hours a week. Last quarter, we onboarded two extra Fortune 500 advisory projects without hiring more staff."
Sarah Mitchell
Senior Partner at Apex Strategy Advisors, a boutique management consulting firm
"I was skeptical about custom AI for our pitches, but their system automated proposal reviews by analyzing past wins in our deal database. It flagged inconsistencies in pricing models we overlooked, helping us secure a $500K ERP implementation contract in just 10 days. It's like having an extra senior analyst on every competitive bid."
David Chen
Managing Director at Horizon Consulting Group, specializing in technology advisory

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does custom AI differ from off-the-shelf tools for consulting workflows?
Off-the-shelf platforms often force your processes into rigid templates, leading to workarounds that waste time. At AIQ Labs, we engineer solutions around your specific needs—like automating bespoke client dashboards or predictive engagement scoring. This results in 40% faster adoption and true scalability, as seen in our work with strategy firms handling diverse industries. Unlike generic tools, our systems learn from your data, reducing setup from months to weeks and delivering measurable ROI through owned, integrated tech.
What kind of time savings can a consulting firm expect?
Based on benchmarks from our 50+ professional services clients, firms typically reclaim 20-30 hours per week per consultant on admin tasks like data entry and status reporting. For a 10-person team, that's over 1,000 hours annually—translating to $200K+ in billable revenue at standard rates. One mid-sized consultancy cut proposal cycles by 50%, allowing them to serve 15% more clients without expanding staff. We focus on high-impact areas like client onboarding and deliverable tracking to maximize these gains.
How do you ensure data security for client-sensitive information?
Security is paramount in professional services, where breaches can devastate client trust. We implement enterprise-grade encryption, role-based access, and compliance with standards like GDPR and SOC 2 from the ground up. Our custom builds include audit trails for every AI interaction, ensuring traceability. Unlike cloud-dependent tools, our owned systems minimize third-party risks. A recent audit for a financial consulting client confirmed 99.9% uptime and zero vulnerabilities, giving them peace of mind while automating confidential workflows.
Can this AI integrate with our existing CRM and project management tools?
Absolutely—integration is our core strength. We create deep, two-way connections with platforms like Salesforce, HubSpot, or Microsoft Project, eliminating manual syncing that plagues 70% of consulting teams. For instance, our AI can auto-populate client timelines from Asana tasks into CRM notes, reducing errors by 60%. We handle complex scenarios, such as multi-client data isolation, ensuring seamless flow without disrupting your operations. Post-integration, clients report a 'single pane of glass' view that boosts efficiency across engagements.
What's the timeline for implementing a custom AI workflow?
We streamline deployment to fit your pace, typically completing discovery in 1-2 weeks, building in 4-6 weeks, and full rollout in 8-10 weeks for most consulting firms. This includes iterative testing with your team to refine automations like automated billing reconciliation. Smaller scopes, such as client update workflows, launch in 4 weeks. Our agile approach minimizes disruption— one firm went live during peak season without missing a deadline, achieving immediate 25% time savings on routine tasks.
How do you measure ROI for our investment?
We tie every project to clear KPIs, like hours saved, error reduction, and revenue uplift, tracked via custom dashboards from day one. Industry data shows consulting firms gain 3-5x ROI within the first year through reclaimed billables and faster client wins. For example, a partner firm saw $120K in savings from automating 500+ manual report hours quarterly. We provide quarterly reviews to optimize and quantify ongoing value, ensuring your AI becomes a strategic asset, not just a tool.
