What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we'd forget to call customers about their brake pad warranties under NHTSA recalls, losing out on easy upsells. Now, the system pings them automatically after 5,000 miles via integrated SMS, and we've seen a 28% jump in repeat visits for alignments over the last quarter. It's like having an extra tech who never sleeps."
Mike Reynolds
Service Manager at Reynolds Auto Repair in Denver, CO
"Manual reminders for winter tire changes were killing our front desk efficiency during snow season rushes. Their custom setup integrates right with our POS and tire inventory system, saving us about 8 hours a week on calls. Last season, we filled every appointment slot for swaps without the usual scramble—revenue up 22% without adding staff."
Sarah Patel
Owner of Patel's Tire & Auto Service in Minneapolis, MN
"We were drowning in scattered notes about customer wheel alignments and suspension checks. This automation pulls it all together from our service logs and follows up seamlessly with email alerts. In the first two months, it caught 15 missed rotation reminders, bringing those customers back for services and adding $4,200 to our books from tire sales. Solid work."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle varying tire shop workflows?
We start with a deep audit of your operations, from single-bay independents to multi-location chains. Unlike generic tools, our system is coded to mirror your unique processes—like syncing follow-ups with your specific tire balancing schedule or inventory from suppliers such as Michelin. This custom fit ensures 95% adoption by your team, reducing resistance and maximizing the 15-hour weekly savings. We've deployed this for shops handling everything from passenger cars to fleet semis, always prioritizing your exact pain points over cookie-cutter setups.
What integrations work with tire shop POS systems?
Our follow-up automation plugs directly into popular automotive POS like Shop-Ware, Tekmetric, and TireMaster, pulling service history and mileage data in real-time. For inventory, it connects to systems from TireRack or local wholesalers, automating reorders when stock dips below your thresholds. No brittle Zapier links here—we build secure APIs that withstand high-volume days, like end-of-month rushes. Clients report zero downtime post-integration, with data flowing as smoothly as oil in a well-maintained engine, ensuring follow-ups are always timely and accurate.
Can it personalize reminders for different customer types?
Absolutely. Our AI analyzes profiles—fleet managers get bulk tire alerts, while retail drivers receive tailored tips on tread wear. It's like customizing a suspension for on-road versus off-road use: precise and relevant. Using your shop's data, it segments by vehicle type, service history, and even regional weather patterns for seasonal relevance. This drives open rates up to 45%, far above the 20% industry norm, turning generic pings into engagement boosters that foster loyalty and upsell opportunities without extra effort from your staff.
How secure is the customer data in this system?
Security is non-negotiable in automotive, where trust is everything. We use enterprise-grade encryption (AES-256) for all data in transit and at rest, compliant with GDPR and CCPA standards. Your customer info—tire sizes, VINs, contact details—stays in a fully owned, U.S.-based server, not scattered across vendor clouds. Regular audits and role-based access ensure only authorized techs see what's needed. Unlike subscription services prone to breaches, our custom builds have a spotless record, giving you peace of mind while automating sensitive follow-ups like recall notices.
What's the timeline and cost for implementation?
For a standard tire shop setup, we deliver a working prototype in 4-6 weeks, with full launch by week 8—faster than most agencies bogged down by templates. Costs start at $12K for core features, scaling based on your shop's size and integrations, but with our proven 4x ROI from time savings and sales lifts, it pays for itself in 4 months. No hidden fees or subscriptions; you own it outright. We've streamlined this for SMBs, avoiding the drawn-out timelines of big consultancies, so you can start seeing those 10+ hours saved per week sooner.
Will this work if we expand to multiple locations?
Yes, our architecture is designed for growth, handling multi-site tire chains with centralized control and location-specific automations—like site-tailored inventory alerts for urban versus rural shops. It scales seamlessly, supporting 1 to 50 bays without performance dips, thanks to cloud-agnostic builds on robust frameworks. Existing clients have doubled locations post-implementation with zero rework, maintaining efficiency gains across the board. This future-proofs your investment, adapting to expansions like adding EV tire services without starting over.
