Catch Cost Overruns Early

Catch Cost Overruns Early: Track material costs like lumber and labor in real time via integrated ERP feeds, spotting a 15% overrun on kitchen remodels before it eats into margins. One contractor we worked with shaved $8,000 off a single project by adjusting bids mid-way based on dashboard alerts for rising steel prices during framing.

Boost On-Time Completions

Boost On-Time Completions: Monitor subcontractor progress on electrical rough-ins and permit statuses across sites with weather API links, reducing delays by up to 30%. Field-tested on bathroom renos where integration helped crews pivot from rain delays, finishing 10 days ahead of schedule and avoiding $5K in idle equipment costs.

Streamline Client Updates

Streamline Client Updates: Share secure dashboard views with clients for transparent progress reports on foundation work, cutting revision calls by 40%. A team handling historic home flips used this to secure repeat business after showing exact ROI on upgrades like energy-efficient windows, with visual Gantt charts proving 12% savings.

What Clients Say

""Before AIQ Labs, we were buried in Excel sheets trying to track tile installations and mortar mixes across three commercial reno sites. Their dashboard pulled everything together with Procore integration—now we see if we're over on grout costs the second a delivery hits the yard. Saved us from a $12K mistake on a high-rise lobby project last quarter alone.""

Mike Rivera

Senior Project Manager, Urban Renew Contractors Inc.

""Renovating old warehouses means constant surprises with legacy wiring and plumbing tie-ins. This custom setup flags variances in pipe fittings right away, and our crew loves the mobile view for punch lists on ductwork. We've hit 95% on-time finishes this year, up from 70%, thanks to real-time alerts on sub progress.""

Sarah Chen

Operations Lead, Metro Buildworks LLC

""I was skeptical about another tool, but this dashboard integrates our field notes from carpenter logs with QuickBooks seamlessly. Tracked a sub's overtime on a full kitchen gut job involving cabinetry demo and caught it early—adjusted payments before billing, keeping our margin at 28% instead of dipping to 18% on that $150K contract.""

Simple 3-Step Process

Step 1

Map Your Workflow

We dive into your renovation processes, from bid prep to final walkthroughs, identifying key data points like crew hours and material inflows. No templates here—it's all built around your daily grind.

Step 2

Integrate and Customize

Connect your tools—think Bluebeam for blueprints and Fieldwire for tasks—into a secure, real-time dashboard. We tweak visuals for your needs, like heat maps for site delays, ensuring it feels intuitive from day one.

Step 3

Deploy and Optimize

Roll it out to your team with quick training, then monitor usage on live projects. We refine based on feedback, like adding alerts for OSHA compliance, so it evolves as your business scales up bids.

Why We're Different

We build from scratch with custom code, not patchwork no-code hacks that break under heavy site data loads—giving you ownership, not endless subscriptions.
Our dashboards are field-tested on real reno jobs, factoring in dusty sites and spotty Wi-Fi, unlike generic tools that assume perfect office conditions.
We focus on ROI metrics like margin per square foot, tailoring insights to renovation realities rather than vague 'business analytics.'
Deep integrations with construction-specific APIs mean no data silos—everything from punch lists to permits flows seamlessly, saving hours weekly.
Scalable architecture grows with your crew size; start with one site, expand to 20 without rebuilding, avoiding the upgrade traps of off-the-shelf software.
We prioritize mobile-first design for foremen on ladders, not just desk views—real usability that cuts training time and boosts adoption.
Security built for sensitive bid data and client contracts, with compliance for construction regs, setting us apart from lightweight consumer apps.
Ongoing support from engineers who get reno chaos, not ticket-based helpdesks—quick fixes for evolving needs like seasonal material spikes.
Proven in high-stakes environments: we've deployed for firms handling $5M+ annual renos, ensuring reliability when deadlines are tight.
We eliminate 'subscription chaos' by creating a unified system you own, reducing your tool count from 10+ to one powerful dashboard.

Common Questions

How do your dashboards integrate with our existing construction software?

We start by assessing tools like Procore, PlanGrid, or QuickBooks that you're already using. Our team builds secure, two-way API connections to pull in data such as job costs, schedules, and inventory levels without disrupting your workflow. For a renovation contractor, this means real-time syncing of field updates to office records—no more double-entry. We've done this for firms with mixed setups, ensuring compatibility even with legacy systems. Setup typically takes 2-4 weeks, and we test everything on a pilot project to confirm smooth data flow.

What makes these dashboards specific to renovation work?

Renovations involve unique variables like unexpected structural finds or client-driven changes, so we customize KPIs around those—think tracking demo variances or finish tolerances. Unlike generic dashboards, ours include modules for phased budgeting (rough-in vs. trim-out) and integrate with tools like Bluebeam for markup reviews. You're probably thinking about scalability; we design for multiple sites, with filters for property types like residential flips or commercial refreshes. The result? Actionable insights that align with your bid-to-closeout process, helping you avoid common pitfalls like scope creep.

How secure is the data in these custom dashboards?

Security is non-negotiable in construction, where you're handling bids, contracts, and financials. We use enterprise-grade encryption for data in transit and at rest, plus role-based permissions so foremen see only site-specific info while owners get full oversight. Compliance with standards like SOC 2 and construction regs (e.g., for lien data) is baked in. For renovation teams, this means protecting sensitive client details during walkthroughs. We've audited our systems for firms dealing with historic properties, ensuring no breaches even under heavy field use.

Can the dashboard handle multiple ongoing renovation projects?

Absolutely—it's built to scale. We create a centralized hub where you can toggle between projects, viewing aggregated metrics like total material spend across a portfolio or drilling into one kitchen reno for daily progress. Features include cross-project comparisons to spot trends, like recurring delays in plumbing subs. A client with 15 simultaneous jobs used ours to consolidate reporting, cutting admin time by 20 hours a week. We optimize for performance, so even with live updates from 50+ users, it loads fast on mobiles or desktops.

What's the timeline and cost for building a custom dashboard?

Timelines vary by complexity, but most renovation-focused dashboards take 6-8 weeks from discovery to launch, including integration and testing on a live site. Costs start around $15K for a core setup, scaling with add-ons like AI forecasting—think of it as an investment yielding quick ROI through reduced overruns. We provide a fixed-scope proposal after an initial consult, tailored to your crew size and project volume. No subscription traps; you own it outright, with optional maintenance for updates as your business grows.

Do you offer training for my field team?

Yes, we make adoption easy with hands-on sessions customized for construction crews. After build, we run 2-3 hour workshops—virtual or on-site—covering basics like logging hours via mobile to advanced KPI reads. For renovation specifics, we simulate scenarios like change order tracking. Follow-up includes quick-reference guides and a support channel. One team went from zero to full use in two weeks, with foremen praising the intuitive design that fits their 'boots-on-ground' routine.
