Why Choose Us
We craft a bespoke AI-powered platform that integrates your shop's unique processes—from VIN lookups and diagnostic integrations to multi-bay scheduling. Unlike Jobber's one-size-fits-all approach, our system is custom-built to handle the chaos of rush-hour repairs and seasonal surges. Think of it as engineering a high-performance engine: precisely tuned for your shop's torque, not a generic assembly line part. We start by mapping your workflow, then deploy AI automations that learn from your data, ensuring every repair ticket flows seamlessly to invoicing and beyond.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency Tailored to Your Shop
Accelerated Service Turnaround
Accelerated Service Turnaround: Our custom AI reduces vehicle downtime by automating OBD-II diagnostics and just-in-time parts sourcing for common repairs like transmissions, boosting throughput by 25% during peak seasons. Shops report completing 15 more jobs per week without adding staff, with average turnaround dropping from 3 days to under 24 hours.
Optimized Inventory and Cost Savings
Optimized Inventory and Cost Savings: Predictive forecasting based on repair order trends cuts overstock by 35%, freeing up capital tied in unused parts like alternators and filters. One client slashed their annual inventory costs from $80,000 to $52,000 by aligning stock with real repair patterns, avoiding stockouts during winter tire changes.
Seamless Compliance and Customer Trust
Seamless Compliance and Customer Trust: Automated record-keeping ensures EPA emissions and manufacturer warranty compliance, reducing audit risks by 40%. Technicians access unified VIN-based histories instantly via mobile tablets, leading to 20% higher customer satisfaction scores from accurate service recaps and personalized recommendations.
What Clients Say
"We were buried in Jobber's clunky interface during our busy winters—rescheduling alignments and tire rotations took hours. AIQ Labs built us a system that auto-adjusts bays based on repair types like front-end work, and now we're handling 40% more jobs without overtime. Saved us about $12K last year alone on labor costs."
Mike Reynolds
Shop Manager, Precision Auto Repair in Denver, CO
"Switching from off-the-shelf tools meant constant data re-entry for fleet invoices on diesel truck maintenance. Their custom AI pulls VIN data directly from integrated scanners and generates bills in under two minutes, including detailed labor breakdowns. Our payment cycle dropped from 45 to 18 days, and the fleet guys love the transparency for DOT compliance."
Sarah Patel
Operations Director, FleetFix Services
"Inventory was a nightmare with brake pads sitting idle or running short during rush hours. The AI forecasting they implemented analyzes our past six months of repair orders and nails reorder points for high-turnover parts. No more emergency runs to suppliers at 5 PM, and our margins improved by 15% in the first quarter after implementation."

Owner, Garcia's Garage

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your custom system differ from Jobber for scheduling auto repairs?
Jobber offers templated scheduling that often clashes with the unpredictable nature of auto repairs, like extended diagnostics on older models. Our AIQ Labs solution builds a flexible scheduler around your shop's specifics—factoring in bay types, technician specialties, and even weather impacts on drive-ins. We've seen shops reduce no-shows by 25% through smart reminders tied to VIN data. It's not just booking; it's optimizing your entire service pipeline for efficiency, with full ownership so you adapt it as your business grows, without subscription hikes.
Can this integrate with my existing diagnostic tools and POS system?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like Mitchell or ALLDATA for diagnostics and Square or Shop-Ware for POS. Unlike superficial Zapier connections that break during software updates, our custom APIs ensure seamless data flow—pulling fault codes directly into repair orders and syncing payments instantly. For a mid-sized shop, this cut data entry time from 2 hours to 15 minutes daily. We handle the complexity, so your team focuses on wrenches, not wiring disparate systems.
What about costs—how does owning a custom system compare to Jobber subscriptions?
Jobber's plans start at $49/month but balloon with add-ons, often exceeding $200/user for full features, locking you into annual commitments. Our one-time build, typically $15K-$50K depending on scope, eliminates those fees, paying for itself in 6-12 months through efficiency gains. You own the code, hosting it affordably on AWS or your servers. Shops report 40% lower long-term costs, plus unlimited customizations without vendor approvals. It's like buying your shop's toolbox instead of renting—full control, no surprises.
How quickly can you deploy this for a busy auto repair shop?
We aim for a 4-8 week timeline from discovery to go-live, tailored to your urgency. For immediate needs, like peak summer tire season, we prioritize core features like scheduling and invoicing first. A recent client, a three-bay operation, was fully operational in five weeks, handling their busiest month yet without hiccups. Post-launch, we provide 30 days of support to tweak based on real usage, ensuring it fits like a custom-fitted glove on a steering wheel.
Is the system secure for handling sensitive customer vehicle data?
Security is non-negotiable in automotive, where VINs and service histories contain personal info. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, SOC 2 compliance, and role-based access—ensuring only authorized techs see diagnostic details. Unlike cloud-only SaaS risks, you control data residency. We've audited systems for shops dealing with fleet contracts, preventing breaches that could cost $10K+ in fines. Regular updates keep it ahead of threats, giving you peace of mind while focusing on quality repairs.
Will this scale if my shop adds more locations or services like EV charging?
Yes, our architecture is designed for growth. Starting as a single-shop solution, it expands effortlessly to multi-site dashboards tracking cross-location inventory and technician assignments. For emerging needs like EV battery diagnostics, we integrate new APIs without overhauls. A client grew from one to four bays in two years, scaling seamlessly and maintaining 98% uptime. It's built modular, so adding features like oil change express lanes doesn't disrupt operations—pure flexibility for your evolving shop.
