The "Data Blindspot" Problem
Inventory silos causing overstock on slow-moving tire sizes like 15-inch all-seasons while popular 18-inch performance tires run dry during peak summer road trip seasons
Manual tracking of service bay utilization leading to unbalanced workloads and delayed tire installations, with bays idle during low-demand mornings while afternoons face backlogs
Disconnected customer data preventing timely reminders for tire rotations, resulting in lost revenue from neglected maintenance on high-mileage fleet vehicles
Fragmented sales reports hiding underperforming tire types like winter treads and upsell opportunities on brake alignments bundled with tire services
No real-time visibility into supplier delivery delays for tire shipments, forcing last-minute rushes and premium pricing on emergency stock from expedited freight
Siloed technician performance metrics causing inefficiencies in tire mounting and balancing workflows, such as uneven load distribution on Hunter machines

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency That Drives Your Bottom Line
Real-Time Inventory Mastery
Real-Time Inventory Mastery: Visualize stock levels across all tire brands and sizes instantly, including tread depth tracking for recaps. Our dashboards predict shortages based on historical sales data from peak seasons like winter, cutting overstock costs by 28%—as seen in benchmarks from efficiency-focused tire chains like Discount Tire. No more guessing; make data-driven restock decisions that keep bays full and customers waiting less, with automated alerts for low stock on high-demand all-terrain tires.
Boost Service Throughput
Boost Service Throughput: Track bay utilization and technician output with precision, including time per tire changeover. Spot bottlenecks in tire mounting queues early, optimizing schedules to handle 15% more vehicles per day within a 4-hour turnaround window. This leads to faster turnarounds, higher customer satisfaction scores, and upsell opportunities on alignments without the chaos of manual logs, reducing wait times from 2 hours to under 45 minutes.
Sharpen Customer Insights
Sharpen Customer Insights: Consolidate visit history and service records into one view, including mileage logs for tire wear patterns. Identify patterns like overdue rotations for high-mileage fleets, enabling targeted outreach via SMS that increases repeat business by 30% within six months. Turn scattered notes into a roadmap for loyalty, all without juggling multiple apps, and integrate with VIN-based vehicle profiles for precise recommendations.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's dashboard, we were constantly short on 17-inch all-season tires during summer rushes, losing sales left and right to competitors. Now, real-time alerts based on our POS data keep us ahead, and we've cut inventory waste by half in just three months, saving over $15K on excess stock. It's like having a co-pilot for our stockroom, especially for predicting demand on SUV tire sizes."
Mike Rivera
Owner, Riverside Tire Pros, a 5-bay independent shop in California serving 200+ vehicles weekly
"Our old system couldn't show which bays were bottlenecking tire installs, especially during peak oil change cross-sells. After implementing their custom setup with Hunter balancer metrics, we rebalanced shifts and handled 20% more jobs—up from 25 to 30 tire sets daily—without adding staff. The KPI tracking on upsells for alignments has been a game-changer, boosting margins by 12% quarterly."
Sarah Chen
Operations Manager, Apex Auto Tires, a multi-location chain in the Midwest with 15 technicians
"We used to miss follow-ups on customer alignments after tire services, but this dashboard flags them automatically based on odometer readings. In the last quarter, our repeat visits jumped from 45% to 68% for rotation reminders, adding $8K in revenue from neglected fleet maintenance. The integration with our POS was seamless—no more double-entry headaches for tracking tire warranties."

General Manager, Highway Tire Service, a commercial fleet specialist in Texas handling 50+ trucks monthly

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How do your custom dashboards integrate with my existing tire shop software?
We start by assessing your setup—whether it's Shop-Ware, TireMaster, or a custom POS—and build deep, two-way API integrations that pull in real-time data on inventory, services, and customers. Unlike superficial connections that fail under load, our enterprise-grade links ensure seamless flow, reducing errors by 40% based on our automotive client benchmarks. For a typical tire shop, this means instant updates from bay completions to stock deductions, all without manual intervention. We handle the complexity, so you focus on installations and sales. Implementation usually takes 4-6 weeks, with full support during rollout.
What specific KPIs can I track for my tire operations?
Our dashboards are tailored to tire shop realities, tracking essentials like inventory turnover rates (aiming for 4-6 turns annually per industry standards), service bay utilization (targeting 75% efficiency to maximize throughput), and customer retention via rotation intervals (boosting repeats to 60%+). You'll also monitor upsell success on add-ons like alignments, supplier reliability scores to avoid delays, and revenue per tire type. We customize these based on your workflow—say, flagging slow movers like niche off-road tires. This visibility has helped clients cut stockouts by 35%, turning data into direct profit gains without generic reports.
Is this dashboard accessible on mobile for my shop floor team?
Absolutely—our custom UIs are responsive and mobile-optimized, letting technicians check tire stock or update service logs right from the bay via tablet or phone. Imagine pulling up a customer's alignment history during a quick consult, no desktop required. Built with advanced frameworks, it handles high-traffic days without lag, unlike clunky apps that slow you down. We've seen shops reduce paperwork time by 50%, freeing staff for more installs. Security is baked in, with role-based access so only managers see full financial KPIs. It's designed for the grit of automotive work, reliable even in dusty environments.
How much does a custom dashboard cost for a mid-sized tire shop?
Pricing starts at $15,000 for a foundational build, scaling to $30,000+ based on complexity—like multi-location integrations or AI forecasting for seasonal tire demands. This is a one-time investment for ownership, ditching the $500+ monthly subscriptions many shops juggle. ROI hits fast: clients typically see payback in 6-9 months through 25% efficiency gains and reduced waste. We provide a detailed quote after discovery, factoring in your exact needs, such as tracking 10+ tire brands. No hidden fees—everything's transparent, with maintenance at a flat 10% annually if desired.
Can you handle data from multiple tire suppliers and locations?
Yes, we specialize in unifying data from diverse sources, like Michelin, Goodyear APIs, and your multi-site inventory systems. Our dashboards consolidate supplier ETAs, stock variances, and location-specific sales into one view, preventing silos that plague growing tire chains. For example, spot a delay from one vendor affecting all stores instantly. This setup has optimized cash flow for clients by 20%, aligning orders with actual demand. We use scalable architectures to grow with you, supporting 5-20 locations without performance dips. Setup involves secure data mapping, ensuring compliance with automotive standards.
What if I need to add new features later, like AI for demand prediction?
Our systems are built modular and extensible, so adding AI-driven tire demand forecasting—analyzing weather patterns and local fleet data—is straightforward, often in 2-4 weeks. Unlike locked-in templates, your dashboard owns the core, letting us layer on features without rebuilding. We've upgraded shops to predict winter tire needs with 90% accuracy, slashing overstock by 30%. Costs are scoped per enhancement, keeping it affordable. This future-proofs your investment, adapting to shifts like electric vehicle tire trends, all while maintaining the efficiency focus tire owners demand.
