Your Custom AI Lead Engine: Tailored from the Ground Up
We've powered lead systems for over 50 construction firms, turning fragmented data sources into steady pipelines that align with real-world project demands.
Why Choose Us
Let's be honest, off-the-shelf lead gen tools are like using a one-size-fits-all blueprint on a custom high-rise—they just don't fit. At AIQ Labs, we build your lead generation system from scratch, pulling from construction-specific sources like Dodge Data, ConstructConnect, and local permitting databases. You're probably thinking, 'How does this work for my crew?' We start by mapping your exact workflow: from identifying GCs needing electrical subcontractors to enriching leads with project specs and timelines. It's flexible, scalable, and owned by you—no subscriptions tying you down. Here's the thing: this isn't assembly-line AI. It's engineered like a precision tool on your shop floor, delivering leads that match your ROI goals and field-tested needs.
What Makes Us Different:
Why This Delivers Real ROI for Your Builds
High-Quality Leads That Close Faster
High-Quality Leads That Close Faster: No more sifting through irrelevant contacts. Our AI targets firms with active RFPs matching your expertise, like commercial plumbing installs or rebar detailing for industrial plants. Expect 40% higher close rates, as seen in our pilots—leads come pre-qualified by budget and urgency, freeing your estimators for bids that win, such as securing a $1.2M steel erection contract within 45 days.
Consistent Pipeline Through Seasons and Delays
Consistent Pipeline Through Seasons and Delays: Construction ebbs and flows with weather and funding. We build in seasonality filters, pulling leads from indoor retrofits like warehouse HVAC upgrades during rainy months or off-season millwork fabrication. One client saw leads steady at 50/month year-round, turning potential downtime into booked jobs like three $300K interior fit-outs and smoother cash flow for equipment leasing.
Save Hours on Research, Focus on the Field
Save Hours on Research, Focus on the Field: Your team shouldn't be desk-bound hunting leads. Our system automates it all, integrating into your daily huddle tools like Autodesk BIM 360. Cut research from 15 hours/week to under 2, letting foremen stay on-site overseeing crane lifts and superintendents chase real opportunities—like that $2M warehouse expansion with custom steel beams you almost missed, now in progress with a 6-month timeline.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we were manually checking bid sites like ConstructConnect every day, missing half the opportunities in our HVAC niche for data center builds. Their custom system now pulls 30 solid leads a month directly into Procore, and we've landed two $500K contracts for ductwork installs in the last quarter alone. It's like having an extra estimator on the team who knows our fabrication limits."
Mike Rivera
Operations Manager, Apex Mechanical Contractors
"Generic directories gave us junk leads that wasted our bids on mismatched soil conditions. AIQ built something that scores based on our concrete pouring specialties for tilt-up walls and local regs in seismic zones. In six months, our pipeline jumped 60%, and we're not chasing ghosts anymore—just projects that fit our schedule, like a $750K foundation pour completed on time."
Sarah Chen
Business Development Lead, Sturdy Foundations Inc.
"As a smaller framing outfit specializing in timber framing for residential developments, we couldn't afford big lead services. Their AI setup integrates with our QuickBooks and pulls supplier needs for lumber from across the state, including RFIs for custom trusses. We've added three steady clients since rollout, boosting revenue by 25% without hiring a sales guy—now we're scaling to multi-family projects."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your AI source leads specific to construction without violating data laws?
We stick to public and ethically scrapable sources like public bid notices, industry directories, and permitting databases—think Dodge Reports or local municipality sites. Our systems are built with compliance in mind, adhering to regulations like CCPA and construction-specific data rules. No shady scraping; everything's transparent and legal. For instance, we enrich leads with verified project details from open APIs, ensuring accuracy without overstepping. This approach has kept our clients audit-free while delivering targeted prospects, like GCs posting RFPs for your electrical work. You're getting high-quality data that respects the field's standards.
Can this integrate with our existing project management software like Procore?
Absolutely, integration is our bread and butter. We create deep, two-way connections that push new leads straight into Procore's contact lists or job folders, complete with attached bid docs. No more copy-pasting from emails. For a recent masonry client, we synced it so leads auto-populated RFI logs, saving their PMs hours weekly. It's custom-coded to your setup, whether you're on Procore, Autodesk BIM 360, or even older systems like Viewpoint. We handle the heavy lifting, testing for seamless data flow so you focus on bids, not tech glitches.
What makes your lead scoring different for construction workflows?
Standard scoring looks at emails opened; ours factors in construction realities like project phase, budget range, location feasibility, and your crew's capacity. We train the AI on your past wins—say, successful bids under $1M in urban areas—to prioritize similar opportunities. A framing company we worked with saw their score filter out 70% of low-fit leads, focusing on high-match timber frame projects. It's like having a digital estimator pre-vetting prospects, ensuring your team chases contracts that align with timelines and resources. Flexible too—we adjust as your specialties evolve.
How long until we see results from this custom system?
From kickoff to first leads, it's typically 4-6 weeks, depending on your data setup. We blueprint fast, build in 2-3 weeks, and launch with initial tuning. One subcontractor saw 20 qualified leads in week one post-launch, targeting HVAC needs in commercial retrofits. Unlike cookie-cutter tools that take months to configure, our custom approach hits the ground running because it's built for your exact needs—no generic onboarding. We include a 30-day optimization period to refine based on early feedback, ensuring steady flow by month two.
Is this scalable if our company grows from small jobs to larger developments?
Yes, we design for growth—like reinforcing a structure for bigger loads. Starting with 50 leads/month for your current crew, the system scales to thousands as you expand, handling increased data without added costs. Our architecture uses robust frameworks that adapt to more complex needs, like multi-state bidding. A client grew from local renovations to regional builds; their pipeline scaled seamlessly, integrating new tools without rebuilds. It's your owned asset, evolving with your business—no hitting walls like with limited subscriptions.
What if we're a niche player, like only doing green building certifications?
Niche is our specialty—we tailor the AI to hunt for LEED-certified projects or sustainable material suppliers via targeted sources like Green Building XML databases. For a solar installation firm, we focused on RFPs mentioning renewables, yielding 35% more relevant leads than broad searches. We map your unique criteria upfront, ensuring the engine ignores mismatches and zeros in on fits. It's practical: your team gets prospects that value your eco-expertise, boosting win rates without wasting time on vanilla jobs.
