The "Towing Invoice" Problem
Manual entry of tow details, such as hook-up times and vehicle VINs, leads to billing disputes over unauthorized services
Inaccurate odometer readings and route mileage logging delay insurance claims for accident recoveries
Paper-based approvals for flatbed assignments and storage authorizations slow down dispatch-to-payment cycles
Scattered records from mobile roadside calls, including battery jumps and tire changes, cause DOT compliance headaches
Weekend tow rushes from highway breakdowns overwhelm admin teams with backlogs in impound processing
Variable fees for impounds, storage, and lien sales eat into profit margins on recovered vehicles

What Makes Us Different:
Quantifiable Gains for Your Bottom Line
Save 15+ Hours Weekly on Admin
Save 15+ Hours Weekly on Admin: Towing teams no longer chase paperwork for wheel-lift tows after long shifts. Our AI handles invoice creation end-to-end, including VIN and mileage auto-capture, freeing dispatchers to focus on roads rather than desks. Benchmarks from AAA-affiliated towers show a 68% productivity boost, translating to quicker response times and happier crews during peak traffic hours.
Achieve 4x Faster ROI Through Cost Reductions
Achieve 4x Faster ROI Through Cost Reductions: Manual errors in storage fee calculations cost towing companies up to $10K yearly in disputes and rework. We eliminate that with precise, automated lien and impound billing, accelerating payments by 30 days on average for insurance-submitted claims. Expect a full ROI within 6 months, with ongoing savings compounding as your fleet of rollback trucks grows.
Boost Efficiency in High-Pressure Scenarios
Boost Efficiency in High-Pressure Scenarios: During peak accident seasons like holiday weekends, backlogged invoices for multi-vehicle pileups stall cash flow. Our system processes 200+ tows daily without breaking a sweat, integrating real-time GPS data from tow trucks to ensure accurate billing even in rush hours. This leads to a 40% increase in operational throughput, keeping your business revving ahead of competitors.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team spent evenings reconciling tow logs with invoices for heavy-duty recoveries—it was killing morale after 12-hour days on the interstate. Now, everything auto-populates from the truck's GPS and odometer data, and we've cut disputes by half. Saved us about 12 hours a week, easy, letting us handle more calls without overtime."
Mike Reynolds
Operations Manager, Apex Interstate Towing
"We handle a lot of insurance tows for urban breakdowns, and manual entry was a nightmare with all the varying rates for flatbeds and storage. Their custom setup integrated our QuickBooks and dispatch app perfectly, capturing VINs automatically. In the first quarter, payments came in 20 days faster, which really helped during winter storms with iced-over highways."
Sarah Chen
Owner, Urban Roadside Recovery Services
"As a small fleet, we couldn't afford big software subscriptions for our roadside assists and police impounds. AIQ built something that fits our exact workflow, tracking storage fees from the moment of hook-up. No more lost details—our error rate dropped to near zero, and billing is done before the truck even returns to the yard, boosting our monthly revenue by 15%."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this integrate with our existing towing dispatch system?
We start by analyzing your current setup, whether it's Towbook, Fleetio, or a custom dispatch tool. Our engineers create deep, two-way API integrations that pull tow details—like timestamps, locations, and vehicle info—directly into the AI workflow. This eliminates manual transfers, ensuring data flows seamlessly from the field to invoicing. For example, when a driver logs a tow completion, the system auto-generates the invoice draft. We've done this for dozens of towing ops, reducing integration time to under two weeks while maintaining 99.9% uptime. No more copy-pasting between apps—it's all unified.
What kind of time savings can we expect for a mid-sized towing company?
Based on our deployments, mid-sized fleets (10-20 trucks) typically save 15-25 hours per week on invoice-related tasks. Manual entry, which often piles up after shifts, drops dramatically as AI handles data capture and formatting. One client went from 4 hours daily on admin to just 45 minutes, redirecting time to more tows. Industry benchmarks from the American Towing Association align with this, showing automation cuts processing by 70%. Your exact savings depend on volume, but we model ROI during discovery, often hitting break-even in 3-4 months through faster payments and fewer errors.
Is this solution compliant with towing industry regulations?
Absolutely—compliance is baked in from the start. We customize the AI to adhere to state-specific rules, like California's towing disclosure requirements or Texas impound fee caps. Features include automated checks for mileage accuracy, storage calculations, and audit-ready logs. For instance, the system flags any discrepancies in lien sales documentation before invoicing. Our team, with backgrounds in automotive tech, ensures everything meets standards from bodies like the NTTSCTA. Post-deployment, we provide ongoing updates for regulatory changes, keeping you protected without extra hassle.
How much does custom invoice automation cost for towing companies?
Costs vary by your operation's complexity, but for a standard towing setup, expect $15K-$30K for full build and integration, with no recurring fees beyond minimal maintenance. This is a one-time investment for ownership, unlike $500+/month subscriptions that add up. We calculate based on factors like fleet size and integrations—e.g., adding GPS pulls might increase by 10%. ROI kicks in fast: clients see $40K+ yearly savings from reduced admin and disputes. During your free consultation, we provide a tailored quote, often with phased payments to ease cash flow.
Can this handle variable fees like storage or after-hours tows?
Yes, our AI is designed for the nuances of towing billing. It dynamically calculates variables such as daily storage rates, after-hours surcharges, or winching fees based on your predefined rules. Input from the driver's app triggers these automatically—for example, if a tow starts at 10 PM, it applies the premium rate without manual adjustment. We've built this for firms dealing with auctions and long-term impounds, ensuring accuracy to avoid underbilling. Testing includes scenarios from your ops, so it fits like a glove, boosting margins by 15-20% on complex jobs.
What if we need to scale as our towing business grows?
Scalability is core to our architecture. We use robust frameworks that handle 10 to 500+ daily tows without slowdowns, cloud-hosted for easy expansion. As you add trucks or routes, the system adapts via simple config updates—no rebuilds needed. One client scaled from 5 to 15 vehicles in six months, and invoicing throughput increased proportionally with zero extra cost. We include growth provisions in the initial design, monitoring usage to preempt bottlenecks. This future-proofs your investment, turning it into a competitive edge as demand surges.
