What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's chatbot, we'd lose half our weekend leads to unanswered messages about fence line trimming. Now, it handles quotes for edging jobs right away, and we've added three new commercial contracts this quarter alone, boosting revenue by 35%."
Maria Gonzalez
Owner, GreenScape Landscaping Services in Austin, TX
"Our team was swamped during fall cleanup season with leaf removal overload. The bot started qualifying irrigation repair requests at night, handing off only the hot ones for next-morning dispatches. Response times dropped from days to minutes, and client feedback scores rose 20% in surveys."
Tom Reilly
Operations Manager, Evergreen Turf Pros in Denver, CO
"I was skeptical about a chatbot understanding landscaping specifics like soil pH testing, but after integration, it even suggested upsells like pest control based on our past jobs in client yards. Bookings are up 28% without hiring extra staff over the last six months."
Sarah Patel
Founder, Bloom City Landscapes in Seattle, WA

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the chatbot handle specific landscaping questions, like plant compatibility?
Our custom-built bots are trained exclusively on your business data, including catalogs of plants, soil types, and regional growing conditions. For instance, if a homeowner asks about drought-tolerant options for a Phoenix yard, the bot pulls from your expertise to recommend natives like agave or desert willow, even suggesting care tips. It qualifies the lead by asking about yard size and sun exposure, then books a consultation directly into your calendar. This isn't generic advice—it's tailored to your services, ensuring accuracy and relevance. We've seen this approach increase qualified leads by 32% for our landscaping clients, as it builds immediate trust without waiting for your team to respond.
Can it integrate with my existing scheduling software?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with popular tools like Jobber, Housecall Pro, or ServiceTitan used by landscapers. The bot can check real-time availability for mulch delivery or pruning jobs, confirm bookings on the spot, and update your CRM with client details like property addresses or preferred contact times. No more double-entry or missed slots. For a recent client, this cut scheduling errors by 45% during their busy summer rush, allowing crews to focus on fieldwork while the bot managed the influx of inquiries. We handle the setup end-to-end, ensuring everything syncs seamlessly from day one.
What if a query is too complex for the bot to handle?
We've designed our chatbots with smart escalation protocols. For straightforward asks—like checking on a delayed fertilizer order—the bot resolves it instantly using your inventory data. But for nuanced issues, such as designing a full xeriscape plan or troubleshooting irrigation leaks, it seamlessly transfers the conversation to your team via email, SMS, or a dashboard alert, including full context like the client's location and query history. This handoff feels natural, maintaining the conversation flow. Landscapers we've worked with report 85% of queries handled autonomously, with the rest converted faster thanks to pre-qualified details, reducing resolution time from hours to minutes.
Is the chatbot available during peak seasons like spring?
Yes, our enterprise-grade architecture is built to scale effortlessly with your busiest periods. During spring planting rushes, when inquiries about sod or flower beds spike, the bot manages unlimited concurrent chats without slowdowns. It prioritizes high-value leads, like commercial landscaping bids, while queuing others. For one Midwest client, it handled a 300% traffic surge in March, capturing leads that added $15K in monthly revenue. We include performance monitoring and auto-scaling features, so you're covered 24/7, year-round—no dropped queries, even when your crews are maxed out on jobsites.
How secure is the chatbot for handling client information?
Security is paramount in home services, where client data like home addresses and payment details is sensitive. We build with industry-leading encryption, GDPR-compliant data handling, and role-based access controls, ensuring only authorized team members see interactions. The bot anonymizes personal info during processing and logs all activities for audits. Unlike off-the-shelf options, our custom systems avoid third-party vulnerabilities by owning the full stack. A landscaping firm we partnered with appreciated this during a compliance review, noting zero data incidents post-implementation. We also offer regular security updates to protect against evolving threats, giving you peace of mind as you focus on growing your business.
How long does it take to set up and see results?
Setup typically takes 4-6 weeks, depending on your current tools, but we prioritize quick wins. In the first week, we map your workflows and prototype core responses for common queries like tree removal estimates. By launch, it's fully integrated and live. Clients often see immediate impact— one landscaper reported a 22% uptick in booked consultations within the first month, as the bot captured after-hours leads previously lost. We provide training and a 30-day optimization period to refine based on real usage, ensuring it aligns perfectly with your operations and delivers ROI from day one.
