Unlock Your Growth with Precision Leads

Fill Your Schedule with Qualified Jobs

Locksmiths using our custom setups report averaging 15 extra jobs monthly, directly from targeted emergency alerts—no more chasing ghosts, with real-time verification ensuring 90% conversion on dispatched calls.

Boost Revenue from High-Value Emergencies

Boost Revenue from High-Value Emergencies: Focus on lucrative after-hours calls like stranded vehicle lockouts that pay premium rates of $150+. Clients see a 28% revenue lift in the first quarter, as AI prioritizes lockouts and rekeys over basic duplicate services, ensuring your team tackles what fills the van with cash—often closing upsells for smart lock installations on the spot.

Streamline Dispatch Without Extra Hands

Streamline Dispatch Without Extra Hands: Leads auto-populate your route planner with exact addresses, property types, and urgency levels for lockout scenarios. This cuts response times by 50%, turning competitors' delays into your advantage—like arriving first to a stranded homeowner in under 20 minutes and securing the full rekey job on the spot, while integrating with tools like Google Maps for optimal routing.

What Clients Say

"Before AIQ, we'd miss half our weekend residential lockouts because the phone just sat there after 6 PM. Now, their system pings us with verified emergencies right to the mobile app—last month alone, we added eight full rekey jobs from apartment break-ins we would've lost to the guy down the street. It's like having a 24/7 spotter monitoring local incident reports."

Mike Rivera

Owner, QuickLock Solutions

"I was skeptical about AI for leads, but they built something that actually gets locksmith work—pulling from local police blotters, HOA referrals, and qualifying calls on the fly for urgent rekeys. In three months, our commercial side jumped 22%, mostly from enriched multi-family property leads we never chased before, turning one-off calls into ongoing contracts."

Sarah Patel

Operations Manager, Elite Locksmith Services

"Generic directories like Yelp were killing us with outdated addresses and bad phone data for locksmith jobs. AIQ customized a scraper for our metro area, and now every lead comes with property history and tenant verification. We closed a big 50-unit apartment complex rekey contract last week off one enriched tip—saved hours of cold calling and boosted our yearly revenue by 15%."

Common Questions

How does your lead generation handle after-hours locksmith emergencies?

Our custom AI system runs 24/7, monitoring sources like local police scanners and Google alerts for keywords such as 'locked out' or 'broken key.' When a potential lead surfaces, it qualifies via automated calls or texts, verifying details like location and urgency. Qualified leads route directly to your on-call tech's mobile app, often within 90 seconds. This beats manual monitoring, where locksmiths typically miss 30-40% of off-peak opportunities. We've seen clients book 12+ extra jobs per month this way, all integrated without disrupting your sleep—unless it's your turn on rotation.

What makes this different from standard lead gen services like Angi?

Unlike Angi's pay-per-lead model, which floods you with unverified residential calls, our solution is built specifically for locksmiths. We create a proprietary engine that scrapes targeted, niche sources and uses AI to score leads based on your criteria—like prioritizing commercial rekeys over simple duplicates. No bidding wars or low-quality volume. Instead, you get enriched data, such as building blueprints or past service flags, integrated into your workflow. Clients report 45% higher close rates because it's tailored to your exact service mix, not a generic marketplace dump.

Can I integrate this with my existing dispatch software?

Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like Housecall Pro or ServiceTitan, common in the locksmith trade. During discovery, we map your current setup and build custom APIs to push leads straight into job queues, complete with geolocation and priority tags. This eliminates double-entry, which wastes 2-3 hours daily for many shops. For instance, a lead for an apartment lockout auto-pulls tenant info if available, speeding up your response. It's all owned code, so it evolves with your software choices—no brittle Zapier hacks that break during updates.

How accurate is the lead qualification for locksmith jobs?

Our AI achieves 85-92% accuracy by training on locksmith-specific patterns, like distinguishing urgent evictions from routine key copies through natural language processing on inquiries. It cross-references with public data for validity, flagging fakes or low-intent callers early. In practice, this means your team focuses on 70% more viable jobs, reducing no-shows that cost the industry $500+ per incident in fuel and time. We fine-tune post-launch using your conversion data, ensuring it adapts to local trends, such as seasonal garage lock spikes in colder climates.

What if my locksmith business operates in multiple cities?

Scalability is core to our design. We architect the system to handle multi-location ops by segmenting scrapers per city—pulling from regional directories and tailoring qualification for urban vs. suburban needs, like high-rise access in downtown areas. Leads route to the nearest tech, with load balancing to prevent overload. A client expanding from one city to three saw lead volume triple without quality drops, thanks to geo-fenced AI models. Setup includes centralized dashboards for oversight, so you track performance across sites without juggling apps. It's built to grow with your fleet, not cap at one van.

How much does a custom lead gen system cost for a small locksmith shop?

Pricing starts at $15,000 for a foundational build, scaling to $35,000 for advanced features like voice AI and multi-city support—far less than years of subscription fees from fragmented tools. This includes full discovery, development, integration, and 90 days of optimization. ROI hits fast: Most clients recoup in 4-6 months via 20-30% more jobs. Unlike assemblers charging monthly, you own it outright, with optional maintenance at $500/month. We base quotes on your specifics, like service radius, ensuring it's an investment in owned tech, not rented leads.
