Why Choose Us
Generic scoring tools treat every lead like a cookie-cutter job site—they ignore the nuances of your painting business, from exterior trim urgency to interior refresh budgets. We build a bespoke AI model tailored to your exact workflow. It analyzes lead data like inquiry timing, property details from public records, and interaction history to score prospects on conversion likelihood. No more one-size-fits-all limitations. This flexible system integrates seamlessly with your CRM, dispatching alerts for hot leads ready for a site visit. Built for you, it evolves with your business, ensuring enterprise-grade precision in every score.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock These Proven Benefits
Skyrocket Close Rates on Qualified Leads
Skyrocket Close Rates on Qualified Leads: Focus your estimators on leads scoring 80%+ for conversion, like homeowners with recent property purchases planning full-exterior refreshes. Industry benchmarks from the Painting Contractors Association show this approach lifts close rates from 20% to 35% within six months, adding $15,000+ in monthly revenue without expanding your team.
Slash Time-to-Bid and Reduce No-Shows
Slash Time-to-Bid and Reduce No-Shows: Automated scoring prioritizes leads by urgency—think storm-damaged siding inquiries needing immediate patching. Painters using our systems cut follow-up calls by 60% in the first quarter, booking 25% more jobs per week while dodging flaky prospects who vanish after on-site quotes for trim painting.
Boost Referral Pipelines with Smart Prioritization
Boost Referral Pipelines with Smart Prioritization: Identify high-engagement leads from past clients' networks, scoring them higher for bundled jobs like full-home repaints including garage doors and fences. This targeted focus has helped painting firms increase referrals by 40% over one season, turning one-off gigs into neighborhood dominance without cold outreach.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's scoring, we'd spend hours quoting jobs that went nowhere, especially those vague 'maybe next spring' calls for deck refinishing. Now, it flags the real ones—like a cluster of townhouse owners needing trim and gutter painting—and our close rate jumped from 18% to 32% in just three months. Finally, the crew's not spinning wheels on dead ends."
Mike Rivera
Owner, Riverside Exterior Painting Pros
"Our peak season was chaos with leads pouring in from online ads, but half were tire-kickers asking about minor wall touch-ups. The custom model they built scores based on our past data, prioritizing commercial bids for multi-story facade restorations that actually book. Saved us 15 hours a week on calls, and we landed two big projects last quarter that paid for the whole setup in under two months."
Sarah Chen
Operations Manager, Elite Commercial Coatings Inc.
"I was skeptical about AI for something as hands-on as painting leads, but this system's spot-on. It caught a referral chain from one satisfied client after their kitchen cabinet repaint—scored them high and we booked four consecutive interior jobs in the same subdivision. No more guessing; it's like having an extra salesperson who never sleeps."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does custom lead scoring differ from standard CRM tools for painters?
Standard CRM tools offer basic filters, like sorting by location, but they don't predict conversion based on your unique data. Our AI analyzes patterns specific to painting—such as leads inquiring about eco-paints in spring versus emergency siding fixes. We train the model on your past jobs, achieving 85% accuracy in flagging winners. This means your team bids on prospects 30% more likely to close, cutting wasted drive time to flaky homeowners. Unlike off-the-shelf options limited by generic algorithms, ours flexes to your workflow, integrating with tools like Jobber for seamless handoffs. Painters see results in weeks, not months.
What data do you need to build the lead scoring system?
We start with your existing lead data—think inquiry forms, call logs, and closed job records from the last 12-24 months. No need for massive datasets; even 500 leads suffice for initial training. We'll map specifics like lead sources (e.g., Google ads for exterior work) and outcomes (booked vs. lost). We handle sensitive info securely, complying with home services privacy standards. During discovery, we also review your CRM setup to ensure smooth integration. This tailored approach avoids the pitfalls of generic models that overlook painting nuances, like higher scores for multi-room interior bids.
How long does it take to implement for a painting business?
From kickoff to live scoring, expect 4-6 weeks for most painters. Week one is discovery: auditing your leads and workflows. Weeks two and three involve building and testing the model against your data. By week four, it's integrated and your team gets hands-on training. We optimize in the following weeks based on real leads. This timeline beats no-code setups that drag on with tweaks. For seasonal urgency, we can fast-track to 3 weeks. Post-launch, maintenance is minimal—quarterly updates keep it sharp for off-season referrals.
Can this integrate with my existing painting software?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep integrations with tools like Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, or QuickBooks for invoicing tied to scored leads. The AI pulls data bidirectionally—scoring new inquiries and updating job statuses. For example, a high-score lead auto-schedules an estimate in your calendar. No superficial plugins here; our engineers build robust APIs that withstand high-volume seasons. If you're on a custom setup, we adapt accordingly. This unified flow eliminates data silos, ensuring your estimators see scores right alongside job details.
What if our lead volume fluctuates with seasons?
Our system is built scalable, handling everything from 50 winter inquiries to 500 summer surges without hiccups. The AI auto-adjusts scoring weights for seasonal patterns—like boosting weather-related exterior leads in fall. Unlike rigid tools that choke on spikes, ours uses cloud architecture for seamless growth. We've helped painters maintain 90% uptime during peaks, preventing lost opportunities. As your business expands, we retrain the model to incorporate new channels, like social media referrals, keeping scores relevant year-round.
Is there ongoing support after launch?
Yes, we provide enterprise-grade support tailored to home services. That includes monthly performance reviews to tweak scores based on your close rates, plus a dedicated engineer for integrations. Unlimited email and chat access ensures quick fixes, like adjusting for a new lead magnet. Unlike subscription models with hidden fees, our ownership model means you control updates without extra costs. Painters typically see ongoing value through annual optimizations, boosting efficiency as crews grow.
