No more sifting through hundreds of generic resumes.

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency Gains That Power Your Bottom Line
Slash Time-to-Hire by 60%
Slash Time-to-Hire by 60%: Home services firms lose thousands in productivity waiting on hires for peak-season jobs like storm damage repairs. Our automation identifies and schedules top certified plumbers or electricians in 3-5 days, not weeks, saving your team 10-15 hours per open role. Industry benchmarks from the National Electrical Contractors Association show this translates to a 25% productivity boost during summer surges, keeping your service trucks dispatched without downtime.
Achieve 4x ROI on Recruitment Spend
Achieve 4x ROI on Recruitment Spend: Manual hiring costs plumbing contractors an average of $4,000 per position in agency fees and lost billable hours on jobs like water heater installations. We deliver measurable savings—clients report $30K+ annually—by automating sourcing from trade networks and reducing bad hires that drain 20% of OSHA compliance training budgets. Redirect focus to high-value jobs like 24/7 drain unclogging instead of endless candidate screenings.
Reduce Turnover with Precision Matching
Reduce Turnover with Precision Matching: Mismatched hires lead to 30% turnover in skilled trades like roofing and HVAC, per Associated Builders and Contractors data. Our custom AI matches candidates to your workflow—think certified welders for gas line repairs or low-voltage specialists for smart home setups—resulting in 40% longer retention over 12 months. This stability cuts rehiring costs by 25% and builds a reliable crew for year-round client service without service gaps.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we were buried under resumes every spring rush for AC installations, spending Fridays just calling candidates who weren't even EPA-certified. Their system now auto-filters for licensed HVAC techs within 50 miles and books interviews around our emergency refrigerant leak calls. Hired three solid techs last month, and it's saved us about 12 hours a week—no exaggeration—letting us handle 20% more service tickets."
Mike Rivera
Operations Manager, SparkLine HVAC Services
"I run a small crew for residential wiring and fixture upgrades, and finding reliable help was killing our response times for after-hours outages. The custom automation they built integrates with our QuickBooks and Google Calendar, spotting skills like NEC code compliance we need. Cut our hiring time in half to under a week, and the last hire's already handling solo panel upgrades after just two weeks of shadowing."
Sarah Patel
Owner, BrightPath Residential Electricians
"Agency fees were eating 15% of our budget on unqualified leads for pipefitting roles. AIQ's tool sources from plumbing trade boards like PHCC and verifies journeyman licenses upfront. We filled a lead plumber spot in 10 days flat during a busy sewer line season, and it's projected to save us $25K this year alone by avoiding overtime on rushed jobs. Finally, tech that gets the chaos of on-call drain emergencies."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI handle verifying electrician licenses and certifications?
Our custom system connects directly to state licensing databases and national certification bodies like NECA or IEC through secure APIs. It automatically cross-checks applicant credentials during screening, flagging any expirations or mismatches before they reach your team. For example, it verifies journeyman status or arc flash training in seconds, reducing manual checks that often take hours. We've built in alerts for renewals too, ensuring your hires stay compliant year-round. This feature alone has helped clients avoid fines and delays in regulated home services work, with 95% accuracy in initial verifications based on our deployments.
Can this automation integrate with our existing scheduling software?
Absolutely. We design integrations tailored to tools like Jobber, Housecall Pro, or custom dispatch systems used in electrical contracting. The AI pulls availability from your calendar to suggest interview slots that don't conflict with service calls—say, avoiding a full-day outage response. It also syncs candidate data into your CRM for seamless handoff to onboarding. In one project for a mid-sized firm, this cut double-booking errors by 70%, freeing ops managers to focus on fieldwork. Setup takes 2-4 weeks, with full testing to match your workflow's pace.
What kind of time savings can we expect in the first month?
Clients typically see 10-15 hours saved per week right out of the gate on sourcing and screening alone. For electrical firms, this means less time chasing unqualified applicants during peak wiring seasons and more bandwidth for client bids. One contractor reported reducing manual resume reviews from 20 hours to 4 in the first month, directly boosting their billable output. Our system automates repetitive tasks like initial outreach and follow-ups, with ROI kicking in as hires fill roles 40% faster. We track these metrics in your dashboard for ongoing optimization.
Is the system secure for handling sensitive candidate data?
Security is non-negotiable in recruiting, especially with trade-specific details like safety records. We use enterprise-grade encryption, SOC 2 compliance, and role-based access to protect data throughout the pipeline. Candidate info is stored in your owned system, not third-party clouds prone to breaches. For home services, we've incorporated features like anonymized initial screening to comply with EEOC guidelines and reduce bias. In audits, our setups have passed with zero vulnerabilities, giving firms peace of mind when dealing with licensed professionals' personal info.
How customizable is it for our specific electrical sub-specialties?
Fully customizable—we train the AI on your exact needs, like sourcing low-voltage specialists for smart home installs or high-voltage pros for commercial panels. During discovery, we map your workflow, incorporating jargon like 'troubleshooting 480V systems' into matching criteria. Unlike off-the-shelf tools, this isn't a one-size-fits-all; it's built to evolve with your services, such as adding EV charger expertise as demand grows. A recent client in residential rewiring saw 85% match accuracy after initial tuning, leading to hires that hit the ground running without extra training.
What happens if we need to scale for multiple locations?
Our architecture is designed for scalability, handling multi-location electrical operations effortlessly. The central AI engine distributes sourcing by region—pulling from local unions in each area—while localized dashboards let branch managers view tailored pipelines. For a chain with five sites, we implemented geo-fencing to prioritize nearby talent, reducing travel costs by 25%. As you expand, we can add features like centralized compliance tracking across states. Deployment scales without performance dips, backed by our production-ready frameworks.
