The "Forgotten Fix" Problem
Scattered repair notes on plumbing leaks or electrical shorts lead to repeated troubleshooting on every job, averaging 2-3 hours lost per service call per industry reports from the Professional Service Association.
New hires waste 3-5 days shadowing veterans on HVAC diagnostics or drywall repairs instead of accessing documented solutions for common issues like refrigerant recharges.
Callback surges from inconsistent fix records, eating into profit margins
Client trust erodes when teams forget unique home quirks like custom wiring setups in older bungalows or non-standard fixture placements in renovated kitchens.
Manual logging of seasonal fixes, like HVAC tweaks for summer humidity control or gutter cleanings for fall debris, delays prep for peak seasons by up to two weeks.
Lost time during emergencies, such as burst pipes or power outages, pulling old invoices for reference without a central hub, costing 1-2 hours per urgent callout.

Why Choose Us
Picture your toolbox not just for wrenches, but for instant wisdom. We craft a bespoke AI knowledge base that ingests every job ticket, client history, and troubleshooting log. Tailored to your handyman workflow—from plumbing quirks to electrical diagrams—it's custom-built, not some off-the-shelf template. Our engineers integrate it seamlessly with your scheduling app and CRM, ensuring your team accesses proven fixes in seconds, on-site or in the van. This isn't automation; it's ownership of a living system that evolves with your business, slashing errors and supercharging efficiency.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Time Savings and Drive ROI in Your Daily Grind
Hours Saved Per Week on Documentation Hunts
Handymen lose 15-20 hours weekly rifling through paper logs or phone notes for solutions to recurring issues like leaky faucets or faulty circuit breakers. Our system delivers instant retrieval of step-by-step guides, freeing your crew for more billable work—expect 18 hours reclaimed per tech weekly, translating to $2,500 monthly in added revenue at $75/hour standard rates, without the overtime burn.
Rapid ROI Through Reduced Callbacks and Errors
Callbacks from botched repairs, such as incorrect thermostat installations or mismatched pipe fittings, cost handyman businesses 25% of profits. By centralizing knowledge with searchable databases for wiring diagrams and material specs, we cut these incidents by 45%, per industry benchmarks from the Home Services Council. Your ROI hits 300% in six months as fewer redo jobs on tasks like appliance hookups mean happier clients and steady referrals, building that long-term relationship edge.
Productivity Boost for Scaling Your Team
Onboarding a new handyman used to take two weeks of ride-alongs for learning fixture replacements or pest control protocols. Now, AI-guided training via the knowledge base, including video tutorials on tool usage, shortens it to three days. Teams report 35% higher output, handling 12 jobs weekly—like routine kitchen faucet installs—instead of 9. It's like upgrading from a rusty van to a fleet-ready rig—scalable growth without the growing pains.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, my guys were always calling me from job sites about wiring fixes we'd done before on those tricky 1920s homes. Now, they search the base for exact diagrams and handle it solo. Saved us 12 hours a week last month alone, callbacks dropped from 15% to under 5%, and we've boosted billable hours by 20%. It's like having my 20 years of experience in their pockets."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, Reynolds Electrical and Handyman Services, serving 500+ homes in suburban Chicago
"We integrated this with our Jobber scheduling, and it's transformed how we prep for seasonal work—no more digging through old emails for AC tune-up notes on high-efficiency units. My team's productivity jumped 28% in the first quarter, handling 20% more jobs like furnace filter swaps without hiring extras, and client satisfaction scores rose 15%."
Sarah Lopez
Operations Manager, Lopez HVAC and Home Repairs, with 15 technicians in Phoenix
"As a small outfit focused on plumbing, we couldn't afford knowledge silos slowing us down on jobs like water heater installs. AIQ built this custom for our needs—now new techs find pipe sizing solutions and pressure valve specs in seconds. Cut training time in half from 10 days to 5, error rate on estimates for drain line repairs fell from 10% to 2%, and we've added $8K in monthly revenue."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this knowledge base differ from using Google Drive for notes?
Google Drive is great for static files, but it's no match for our AI-driven system in a handyman setup. We automate organization—tagging a leaky pipe fix by location, symptoms, and tools used—so your team searches 'kitchen faucet drip' and gets tailored solutions instantly, not a folder hunt. Integrates with your job apps for context, like pulling the client's home layout. We've seen teams cut search time from 30 minutes to 2, boosting jobs per day. It's custom to your workflow, evolving with inputs, unlike Drive's manual chaos that leads to overlooked details and callbacks.
Can it handle photos and videos of past repairs?
Absolutely, and it's a game-changer for visual trades like handyman work. Our system uses AI to analyze uploaded images and videos—say, a cracked drywall patch—then links them to textual steps and outcomes. Techs query 'drywall repair example' and see your exact before-after from similar jobs. We build in compression for mobile uploads from job sites, ensuring quick access even on 4G. For a 10-person crew, this cuts redo errors by 30%, as proven in our deployments. It's all secured and searchable, turning your visual history into a proactive tool, not buried files.
What's the timeline for building and launching this for my business?
We move fast but thorough, targeting 4-6 weeks from kickoff for a full handyman rollout. Week one: map your current notes and pain points, like forgotten wiring diagrams. Weeks two-three: build and integrate with your tools, testing on sample jobs. Final weeks: train your team and go live with monitoring. Unlike cookie-cutter setups taking months, our engineering focus gets you ROI quicker—clients see 20% time savings in the first month. Post-launch, we optimize based on usage, ensuring it fits evolving needs like seasonal HVAC fixes without delays.
Is this secure for sensitive client data like home layouts?
Security is non-negotiable in client-focused home services. We encrypt everything end-to-end, with role-based access so only relevant techs see a client's electrical notes. Compliant with standards like GDPR and local privacy laws, our systems log accesses for audits—vital for licensed repairs. Unlike shared drives risking breaches, our custom builds include AI anomaly detection for unusual queries. In one deployment, a firm avoided a data snag during an insurance review, saving potential fines. Your knowledge stays yours, protected like a locked toolbox on a job site.
How do we measure the ROI after implementation?
We make ROI crystal clear with built-in tracking tailored to handyman metrics. Pre-launch baseline: log hours on documentation and callback rates. Post-go-live, the dashboard quantifies savings—like 15 hours/week per tech on fix lookups, equating to $1,800/month at $30/hour. Track productivity via jobs completed and error reductions, aiming for 25-40% gains per industry benchmarks. Quarterly reviews adjust for peaks, like summer repairs. Clients typically hit breakeven in 8 weeks, with one handyman group reporting $45K annual savings from fewer overtime hours and boosted referrals.
Will this work if my team is mostly out in the field, not at desks?
Designed for it. Our knowledge base is mobile-optimized, with a clean app interface for iOS and Android—perfect for pulling up a cabinet install guide while knee-deep in a kitchen reno. Offline caching lets techs access 80% of common fixes without signal, syncing later. Voice search handles dirty hands scenarios, querying 'fix squeaky door' hands-free. We've equipped field-heavy teams to shave 10-15 minutes per job off research, turning vans into knowledge hubs. No desk required; it's built for the grind of ladders and tool belts.
