What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team was buried in outdated Google Drives and scattered Salesforce entries for every client media update. Now, pulling up a journalist's coverage preferences and past interaction history takes just 30 seconds. We've saved about 12 hours a week across our account teams, and our latest RFP pitch deck revisions dropped from 4 days to one afternoon. It's like having an extra senior strategist dedicated to media relations on staff."
Sarah Jenkins
Account Director, Horizon Public Relations Firm
"Staff turnover hit us hard last year—key media contacts and client briefing notes vanished with the exits of our top account leads. The custom knowledge base from AIQ Labs auto-tags everything from client emails to Slack threads on campaign performance. In the first month, we recovered two lost media placement opportunities worth $50K in billings. No more starting from scratch on retainers; it's a game-changer for our agency workflow."
Mike Rivera
Managing Partner, Apex Communications Agency
"We were wasting weekends prepping crisis communication briefs from fragmented notes in Dropbox and email archives. AIQ's system organizes it all intelligently, even suggesting tailored response templates based on past successful reputation management cases. Our response time to client incidents improved by 40%, and clients noticed the enhanced speed in our advisories. ROI kicked in within two months through faster project turnaround—highly recommend for any scaling PR firm."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this differ from using a shared drive or wiki for knowledge management?
Shared drives and wikis are static—great for storage, but they force your team to manually search through chaos, often missing key insights during tight deadlines. Our custom AI knowledge base is dynamic: it understands context, like linking a client's past crisis to similar media responses, surfacing info in seconds. For PR firms, this means turning hours of digging into minutes, with benchmarks showing 70% faster access. We build it to your workflow, integrating directly with your CRM, so it's not just organized—it's intelligent and proactive, reducing errors in pitches by 25%. Unlike free tools, it's scalable for growing agencies without the maintenance headaches.
What data sources can the knowledge base pull from in a PR setting?
We ingest everything relevant to your operations: email threads from Outlook or Gmail, pitch decks in Google Drive, media lists from Cision or Excel, internal Slack channels, and even transcribed call notes. The AI processes unstructured data—like journalist feedback buried in emails—into searchable, tagged entries. For example, it can auto-categorize coverage by industry vertical or sentiment. This creates a single source of truth, eliminating version control issues that plague 40% of PR teams. Setup takes 2-4 weeks, with ongoing ingestion keeping it current, so your firm always has the latest on client narratives and media landscapes.
How secure is the system for handling confidential client information?
Security is paramount in PR, where leaks can destroy reputations. We use enterprise-grade encryption (AES-256) for data at rest and in transit, with role-based permissions ensuring only authorized staff access sensitive pitches or client briefs. Compliance with GDPR and CCPA is baked in, including audit logs for every query. Unlike cloud wikis prone to breaches, our on-prem or hybrid options give you full control. We've audited systems for firms handling Fortune 500 clients, reducing risk exposure by 80%. Regular penetration testing and updates keep it robust against evolving threats, so you focus on strategy, not safeguards.
What's the typical timeline and cost for implementation?
For a mid-sized PR firm, discovery and build take 6-8 weeks, followed by a 2-week testing phase with your team. Costs start at $25K for a core system, scaling based on integrations—like tying into your CRM—which can add 20-30%. This delivers quick wins: expect 10-15 hours saved weekly from launch. ROI hits within 3 months, with many clients recouping via increased billables. We provide a detailed quote after auditing your setup, ensuring it's tailored—no surprises. Compared to ongoing wiki subscriptions averaging $5K/year, our owned solution pays off faster and lasts longer.
Can the knowledge base integrate with our existing PR software stack?
Absolutely—seamless integration is our hallmark. We connect to tools like Salesforce for client data, Asana for project tracking, or HARO for media queries, creating a unified view. For instance, a search for a client's industry pulls CRM notes alongside past coverage summaries. Our deep API work avoids the shallow links that break 50% of the time in off-the-shelf setups. This custom fabric means no more toggling apps during a pitch call. Post-integration, we optimize for your usage, with 95% uptime benchmarks, empowering your team to deliver faster, more informed client service without workflow disruptions.
How do we measure the ROI of this automation?
We track tangible metrics from day one: hours saved on research (target 15/week per user), pitch preparation time reduced (aim for 50%), and qualitative wins like improved client satisfaction scores. Using built-in analytics, you'll see dashboards showing retrieval speed and usage patterns. Industry benchmarks for PR show 4:1 ROI, with efficiency gains boosting productivity by 25%. For example, one client quantified $120K in recovered billables in year one. We set baselines during discovery and review quarterly, adjusting to maximize value—ensuring your investment directly fuels growth in client acquisitions and retention.
