Why Choose Us
Generic forecasting tools fail taxi services. They ignore the chaos of surge pricing, erratic rider volumes, and the relentless wear on vehicles. At AIQ Labs, we build a custom AI system from the ground up. It integrates your dispatch software, GPS data, and historical ride logs to predict needs with precision. No more guessing. Think of it as a co-pilot for your supply chain—anticipating a parts rush after a rainy weekend rush, just like plotting the optimal route through city traffic.
What Makes Us Different:
Enterprise-Grade Efficiency for Your Operations
Minimize Downtime, Maximize Uptime
Minimize Downtime, Maximize Uptime: Our AI forecasts parts needs with 92% accuracy for high-wear components like engines and transmissions, preventing the 15-20% of daily delays caused by shortages in over-the-road trucking. Fleet managers report 30% more vehicles on the road during peak delivery windows, translating to thousands in additional revenue from expedited shipments.
Optimize Cash Flow with Precision
Optimize Cash Flow with Precision: Reduce overstock by 35% in fuel depots and supply warehouses, freeing up capital tied in unused diesel or janitorial supplies. In one case, a mid-sized LTL carrier cut holding costs by $8,500 in three months during off-peak seasons, reinvesting in route optimization software.
Ensure Regulatory and Safety Compliance
Ensure Regulatory and Safety Compliance: Automated tracking of critical items like tires and brakes aligns with FMCSA and DOT guidelines for commercial motor vehicles, avoiding fines that average $10,000 per violation during roadside audits. Your fleet stays audit-ready with proactive reorder signals integrated into TMS platforms.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's system, we were scrambling for brake pads every other week during rush hour surges in downtown routes—costing us 4-6 hours of downtime per incident. Now, predictions hit the mark 90% of the time for our 200-vehicle fleet, and we've shaved 25% off our parts budget since Q2 last year, avoiding $12,000 in emergency orders."
Marcus Hale
Fleet Operations Manager, CityRide Taxis (Serving 5 Major Urban Markets)
"Integrating this with our dispatch app was seamless for our regional trucking network. No more fuel runs at 2 AM because of bad guesses on weekly volumes during holiday peaks. Last winter, we avoided a $4,000 overstock disaster on diesel reserves by forecasting slow periods accurately, stabilizing our cash flow for the entire quarter."
Elena Vargas
Logistics Director, Metro Fleet Services (Regional Trucking and Delivery Provider)
"As a 50-vehicle operation handling urban cab services, we deal with unpredictable events like festivals that spike tire wear on high-mileage routes. AIQ's custom setup flagged needs two weeks out based on GPS data, keeping our drivers rolling without interruptions. ROI was clear in the first month, with a 40% reduction in out-of-service days."
Raj Patel
Operations Lead, Urban Cab Network (50-Vehicle Ride-Share Fleet in the Midwest)

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this forecasting handle unpredictable ride surges in taxi services?
Our custom AI ingests data from your dispatch and GPS systems to model surges, like those from events or bad weather. Unlike generic tools, it factors in historical patterns specific to your routes—predicting a 20% parts uptick during rush hours. We've seen accuracy improve to 88% within the first quarter, directly cutting emergency buys that disrupt schedules. Implementation starts with your data, ensuring predictions align with your fleet's realities, not broad averages.
What integration is needed with our existing taxi management software?
We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with popular TMS like Fleetio or custom dispatch apps. The process maps your data flows—rides, maintenance logs, supplier APIs—into a unified system. No more manual uploads; everything syncs in real-time. For a 100-vehicle operation, setup took just two weeks, reducing data errors by 50%. You retain full control and ownership, avoiding the brittle links of off-the-shelf solutions.
Can this system scale if our taxi fleet expands to multiple cities?
Absolutely. Built on scalable frameworks, it handles growth seamlessly—from 20 to 200 vehicles across locations. We incorporate geo-specific factors like local traffic or regulations into models. One client expanded from one city to three without downtime, maintaining 95% forecast reliability. Our enterprise-grade architecture ensures performance, with modular updates that adapt as your operations evolve, keeping costs predictable.
How accurate are the forecasts compared to manual methods?
Industry benchmarks show our custom AI achieves 90-95% accuracy, versus 60-70% for spreadsheets or basic tools. By analyzing your unique data—mileage, downtime history, seasonal rider trends—it outperforms generics that ignore taxi volatility. A recent deployment for a urban fleet reduced overstock by 40%, saving $15,000 yearly. We refine models iteratively with your feedback, ensuring sustained precision as patterns shift.
What support is provided after the inventory system is live?
Post-launch, we offer ongoing monitoring and quarterly optimizations to keep forecasts sharp amid changes like new routes or fuel price swings. Your team gets dedicated access to our experts for tweaks—no ticket queues. Clients report 25% further efficiency gains in year two. This builder mindset means we're invested in your success, providing updates that evolve with industry shifts, all while you own the core system.
Is this solution compliant with transportation regulations for inventory tracking?
Yes, we design with FMCSA and DOT standards in mind, including audit trails for critical items like brakes and tires. The system logs all predictions and actions for compliance reporting, reducing violation risks that cost fleets $5,000+ per incident. Customizable to your state regs, it's been vetted for taxi operators in high-scrutiny areas. Security features ensure data integrity, giving you peace of mind in a regulated industry.
