The "Stock Chaos" Problem
Unpredictable demand spikes from seasonal surges in storm-related electrical repairs, leading to 30-50% fluctuations in wire and panel needs
Wasted trips back to the van for forgotten breakers
Overstocking on rarely used EMT conduit amid tight cash flow constraints from fluctuating material costs
Manual tracking errors leading to delayed emergency repairs
Struggling to align inventory with client-specific fixture needs, such as varying smart home thermostat or recessed lighting requirements
Seasonal hiring ramps for summer AC installations without matching tool stock forecasts for crimpers and multimeters

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Game-Changing Efficiency for Your Electrical Business
Eliminate Job Delays
Eliminate Job Delays: Picture this: no more halting a kitchen remodel because you ran out of 20-amp GFCI outlets during peak holiday installations. Our forecasting reduces stockouts by 65%, keeping crews productive and clients happy. Industry benchmarks from the National Electrical Contractors Association show this cuts average job time by 20%, directly boosting your revenue per day from $1,200 to $1,440 on typical residential runs.
Optimize Cash Flow
Optimize Cash Flow: Tired of tying up thousands in unused Schedule 40 PVC pipes or dimmable LED fixtures that sit idle for months? Our AI trims overstock by 40% within the first quarter, freeing capital for hiring apprentices or upgrading service vans with better cable management. Electricians using similar systems report 25% better margins on materials like Romex wire, turning inventory from a liability into a strategic asset amid volatile supply chains.
Scale Without Chaos
Scale Without Chaos: As your business grows from solo gigs to multi-truck operations covering new suburbs, our solution adapts by forecasting for expanded territories and job types like EV charger installs. It prevents the inventory mismatches that plague 70% of scaling electrical firms, per IBISWorld reports. Result? Smoother expansions and fewer supply headaches during peak storm repair seasons, with 35% fewer rush orders for grounding rods.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we'd lose half a day per job hunting down missing 4-inch junction boxes for overhead lighting runs. Now, their system flags needs ahead of time—last summer during the heatwave surges, we handled 30% more installs without a single stockout on NM cable. It's like having a warehouse manager who never sleeps."
Mike Rivera
Owner, Rivera Electrical Services (Serving Phoenix metro area, 15 technicians)
"We used to overbuy 1/2-inch EMT conduit every fall for new home builds, eating into our profits by $5K per season. After implementing their custom forecast integrated with QuickBooks, we cut excess by 50% and still covered every call for service upgrades. No more manual spreadsheets—just accurate predictions for branch circuit materials."
Sarah Chen
Operations Manager, Apex Electric (Commercial and residential contractor, Bay Area, CA)
"As a small crew focused on remodels, predicting demand for low-voltage landscape lighting fixtures was pure guesswork. AIQ's tool analyzed our last two years of data from 150+ jobs and nailed it—reduced emergency orders for transformers from weekly to monthly. Our techs are on-site longer, closing jobs 15% faster and earning repeat business from satisfied homeowners."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your inventory forecasting handle seasonal fluctuations in electrical work?
Our custom AI analyzes patterns from your past data, factoring in local trends like summer AC installs or winter heating repairs. For instance, if your logs show a 40% spike in wiring jobs during storm season, the model adjusts predictions accordingly. We also integrate external data like weather forecasts to refine accuracy. Electricians typically see 75% better alignment with demand, reducing those frantic last-minute runs to the supplier. Setup involves mapping your job types, and the system evolves with new inputs for ongoing precision.
Can this system integrate with my existing scheduling software?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like Jobber or FieldEdge, pulling job details to forecast needs for upcoming installs. No more manual entry—data flows automatically, syncing stock levels with crew assignments. In one case, a client cut data errors by 90% after linking their app. We handle the technical heavy lifting, ensuring it's seamless and secure, so you focus on the work, not the wiring of systems.
What if my electrical business has multiple vans or locations?
Our solution is built to scale across fleets. We create van-specific forecasts, allocating parts like conduits based on routes and job types—say, more outlets for residential vs. industrial. For multi-location firms, it aggregates data for centralized ordering while allowing local tweaks. A 20-truck operation we worked with reduced cross-van borrowing by 60%. It's flexible, with dashboards showing real-time status per vehicle, preventing shortages during peak days.
How accurate is the forecasting compared to manual methods?
Far superior—our AI achieves 85-95% accuracy for electricians, vs. the 50-60% guesswork of spreadsheets. It leverages machine learning on your service history, supplier lead times, and even economic indicators affecting home renos. Benchmarks from similar implementations show a 35% drop in overstock costs within six months. We start with a baseline model and refine it quarterly, ensuring it adapts to changes like new energy-efficient fixture trends.
Is there training involved for my team to use this?
Yes, but it's straightforward and hands-on. We provide customized sessions—about 4 hours total—covering dashboard navigation, alert responses, and reorder processes. Tailored for field techs, it includes mobile app demos for on-job checks. Post-launch, we offer a 30-day support window with quick-response help. Clients report teams up to speed in a week, with adoption rates over 90%, turning what was a chore into an intuitive daily tool.
What kind of data do I need to provide to get started?
We work with what you have: past invoices, job logs, current stock lists, and supplier catalogs. No need for perfect records—we clean and enhance the data during discovery. For electricians, this often includes details on common items like Romex wire or panels. If gaps exist, our AI fills them using industry benchmarks. The process is non-disruptive, starting small to build trust, and we've onboarded firms with minimal data in under two weeks.
