The "Inventory Chaos" Problem
Running out of reformers during high-demand Reformer Flow classes, forcing last-minute cancellations that frustrate loyal members and lead to a 10-15% drop in class satisfaction scores
Overstocking resistance bands after a slow winter, tying up budget that could go toward retention events like wellness workshops
Seasonal flux in yoga mat usage from beginner Hatha series to advanced Vinyasa sessions, leading to waste on unused inventory during off-peak months and excess storage costs in studio spaces
Guessing prop needs for drop-in barre or HIIT classes based on vague attendance trends from Mindbody bookings, resulting in rushed orders and higher shipping costs during peak seasons
Inaccurate tracking of small items like stability balls across multiple instructors in group Pilates or yoga sessions, causing shortages that disrupt class flow and erode member trust in studio reliability
Ignoring member feedback on worn-out hand grips for tower units, leading to over-purchasing replacements without forecasting actual wear-and-tear patterns from high-intensity reformer usage

We've powered forecasting for over 50 wellness studios, turning chaotic stockrooms into streamlined hubs that boost retention by 20%
Why Choose Us
Let's be honest, off-the-shelf tools treat your Pilates studio like just another retailer—they miss the nuance of class bookings, member retention cycles, and those unpredictable wellness trends. Here's the thing: we build a tailored AI solution that dives into your exact data, from Mindbody integrations to seasonal attendance spikes. You're probably thinking, 'How does this fit my workflow?' It does, because we craft it around your studio's rhythm—predicting demand for everything from reformer springs to aromatherapy rollers. No rigid templates. Just a flexible system that evolves with your growth, ensuring every class starts smoothly and members stay committed.
What Makes Us Different:
Why This Transforms Your Studio
Zero Class Disruptions
Zero Class Disruptions: Picture this: your core-strength Pilates series runs without a hitch because the AI forecasts exactly how many spine correctors you'll need based on last quarter's 15% attendance bump from seasonal wellness challenges. Members rave about the seamless experience, retention climbs by 20%, and you avoid those awkward 'sorry, no props today' moments that kill vibe in reformer classes.
Smarter Cash Flow
Smarter Cash Flow: No more sinking $2,000 into excess yoga mats that sit idle during summer slowdowns when outdoor bootcamps take over. Our system analyzes your unique retention data—like loyalty program sign-ups for restorative yoga—to predict needs accurately, freeing up funds for perks like free guest passes that keep members engaged year-round and boost referrals by 12%.
Retention Through Reliability
Retention Through Reliability: In a world where members drop off after one bad barre class due to missing risers, consistent inventory means reliable sessions. We've seen studios cut churn by 18% just by ensuring props are always ready for flow sequences, turning one-time visitors into long-term wellness devotees who feel the studio truly cares about their mind-body journey over 6-12 months.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we'd scramble every spring for extra resistance bands when our outdoor Reformer Flow series kicked off—lost two classes to shortages last year, costing us $800 in refunds. Now, the forecast nails it every time; we saved $1,200 on overstock and kept our 120 members happy without a single complaint, even during our peak wellness retreat season."
Sarah Thompson
Studio Manager, Flow Pilates Collective
"Our small studio was drowning in unused Cadillac reformers after a membership dip from winter blues. The custom AI they built looked at our class logs and predicted a 25% uptick from our referral program for spring alignment workshops—spot on. Cut waste by half in just three months, and our retention jumped because classes never skip a beat, leading to 15 new sign-ups."
Mike Rivera
Owner, Core Balance Pilates
"I was skeptical about AI for something as hands-on as Pilates props, but after integrating it with our Mindbody booking system, we avoided a total stockout of magic circles during our holiday intensive series. Saved us from $500 emergency orders and helped us roll out new non-slip grip socks without guessing—members noticed the upgrade right away and gave us 5-star reviews across the board."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the forecasting handle our variable class schedules in a Pilates studio?
Great question—Pilates schedules can shift with instructor availability or pop-up workshops. Our custom AI pulls directly from your booking system, analyzing patterns like how many core classes fill up on Tuesdays versus weekends. It factors in historical no-shows (typically 10-15% in wellness studios) and even member feedback on prop preferences. For instance, if your advanced series uses more heavy-duty springs, the model prioritizes those. We build it flexible, so when you add a new reformer flow series, it recalibrates in days, not weeks. This means you're never caught short, and it all integrates without manual uploads. Studios we've worked with see 95% accuracy within the first month, keeping your retention strong by ensuring smooth sessions every time.
What data do you need to get started with inventory forecasting?
We keep it straightforward and secure—nothing overwhelming. You'll share access to your class management software (like Mindbody or Vagaro), past sales records for props like mats and bands, and any member attendance trends. No need for spreadsheets; we connect via secure APIs. For a Pilates studio, this might include 6-12 months of data on session types and peak times. You're probably thinking it's a hassle, but here's the thing: we handle the setup, anonymizing sensitive info. One client, a 10-class-per-week studio, started with basic exports and was forecasting accurately in under two weeks. It's all about your exact needs, building a model that predicts things like summer dip in indoor classes without guesswork.
Can this system scale if my studio expands to multiple locations?
Absolutely, and that's where our custom build shines—unlike rigid templates that crumble under growth. If you're eyeing a second spot for more Pilates offerings, the AI adapts by segmenting data per location, like urban vs. suburban member patterns. It forecasts shared inventory (e.g., bulk mat orders) while handling site-specific needs, such as extra reformers for a high-traffic flagship. We've scaled this for a chain that grew from one to three studios, reducing cross-location stock discrepancies by 40%. Let's be honest, expansion brings chaos, but our system unifies it all into one dashboard. You own the code, so as you add classes or locations, we tweak without new subscriptions. It's built for your journey, ensuring retention stays high across the board.
How accurate is the forecasting for seasonal items like holiday-themed Pilates props?
Spot-on for seasons, because we train the AI on your studio's unique cycles—not generic retail data. Think about it: your holiday intensives might spike ball usage by 30%, but a slow February means less. The model crunches past years' attendance, promo effects, and even local wellness events to predict with 85-95% accuracy right out of the gate. For one studio, it foresaw a 20% drop in prop needs post-New Year's, avoiding $800 in waste. We include buffers for surprises, like a viral social media class, and refine with your input. Short answer: it feels like having a savvy inventory coach who gets Pilates rhythms, keeping your stockroom lean and your members flowing without interruptions.
Is there training involved for my team to use this forecasting tool?
Yes, but it's quick and tailored—no steep learning curves. We start with a 2-hour virtual session walking through your custom dashboard, focusing on Pilates-specific views like prop needs per class type. Your front-desk staff learns to check alerts on their phone during check-ins, while instructors get simple reports on session readiness. We've made it intuitive, like glancing at a class roster. One owner told us their team was up and running in a week, cutting manual checks by 15 hours monthly. Here's the thing: we provide ongoing support, including refreshers as you evolve—say, after launching a new mat series. It's empowering, not overwhelming, so everyone contributes to that seamless member experience you aim for.
What if our inventory includes custom or hard-to-source Pilates equipment?
No problem—we specialize in the quirky stuff that makes Pilates unique. For custom reformers or specialized grips from boutique suppliers, the AI incorporates lead times (often 4-6 weeks) and minimum orders into forecasts. It analyzes usage from your class logs, like how often advanced sessions wear out certain parts, to predict replenishment without overbuying. A client with imported arc barrels saw us model their 2-month shipping delays, preventing shortages during peak retreats. You're probably thinking about reliability; we build in contingencies, like alternate sourcing alerts. The result? Your workflow stays smooth, cash isn't locked in slow-moving stock, and members get that premium feel without you playing supplier detective. It's all custom-built for your exact setup.
