What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's chatbot, we'd lose half our Friday night rides to unanswered texts during shift changes at our dispatch center. Now, it's booking 15 extra airport and event runs per weekend, and our drivers are less stressed with better ETA predictions. Integrated seamlessly with our TMS routing app—no glitches even during peak festival surges like Coachella traffic."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the chatbot integrate with our existing taxi dispatch system?
We start by mapping your current setup—whether it's software like Fleetio or a custom in-house tool—and build direct API connections for seamless data flow. For instance, when a rider asks about availability, the bot pulls live driver locations from your GPS feed to confirm pickups instantly. This eliminates manual checks, reducing errors by 50% in our deployments. Setup involves a quick audit of your endpoints, followed by secure, two-way syncing that keeps everything in real-time without disrupting operations. It's designed for the fast pace of taxi services, ensuring no ride falls through the cracks.
Can the chatbot handle dynamic pricing during peak times?
Absolutely. Our custom AI is trained on your pricing rules, traffic patterns, and historical data to quote accurate surge fares on the fly. If a rider inquires about a trip during rush hour, it factors in current demand and responds with a precise estimate, much like your dispatchers do manually. This has helped clients capture 25% more revenue from high-demand periods. We test these scenarios rigorously pre-launch to match your exact model, avoiding over- or under-charging that could deter riders. It's a game-changer for efficiency in volatile urban markets.
What happens if a query is too complex for the AI to handle?
The system is built with smart escalation: if something like a multi-stop itinerary or accessibility needs exceeds its scope, it seamlessly hands off to your team with full context—rider details, query history, and suggested responses. This happens in under 30 seconds, preserving the conversation flow. In taxi operations, we've seen escalations drop to just 15% of interactions after training on your specific scenarios. Your dispatchers get a unified view, so they jump in efficiently without starting from scratch, maintaining that round-the-clock service edge.
How secure is the chatbot for handling rider personal data?
Security is paramount in transportation, so we embed enterprise-grade encryption and compliance from the start—aligned with GDPR and local transport regs. Rider info like pickup locations and payment details is tokenized and stored only as needed, with audit logs for every interaction. Unlike generic bots, ours uses role-based access to ensure only authorized dispatchers see sensitive data. We've audited systems for 150+ logistics clients, preventing breaches that could cost fleets thousands in fines. Your data stays owned by you, integrated securely without exposing vulnerabilities.
How long does it take to see results from the chatbot?
Most taxi clients notice immediate wins: within the first week post-launch, response times drop dramatically, and after-hours bookings increase by 20-30%. Full ROI hits in 4-6 weeks as the AI refines from real interactions, optimizing for your routes and rider behaviors. For example, one fleet saw a 35% lift in weekend pickups after initial tweaks. We provide weekly performance reports to track metrics like conversion rates, ensuring quick adjustments. It's not a set-it-and-forget-it tool; our team monitors to maximize your operational efficiency from day one.
Is this chatbot scalable for growing taxi fleets?
Yes, designed for expansion. As your fleet adds vehicles or enters new markets, the AI scales effortlessly—handling 10x query volumes without performance dips, thanks to our robust backend architecture. It auto-adapts to new routes or pricing via simple config updates, no recoding needed. Clients with 50-driver operations have grown to 200 without issues, maintaining sub-5-second responses even during city-wide events. We build in future-proofing, like modular integrations, so your investment compounds as you scale, keeping costs predictable in a competitive logistics landscape.
