The "Lead Drought" Problem
Feast-or-famine project pipelines that disrupt creative teams, leading to 30% utilization drops during dry spells in video production schedules
Wasted hours chasing unqualified leads from generic directories like Clutch or Upwork, where only 10-15% align with high-end video production needs
Missed opportunities with brands seeking niche video expertise like yours
Manual prospect research pulling producers away from client deliverables, diverting up to 20 hours weekly from editing suites to LinkedIn scraping
Inconsistent lead quality undermining your reputation for high-end productions
Inconsistent lead quality undermining your reputation for high-end productions, resulting in mismatched briefs that force scope creep on premium corporate video projects
Tailored AI Lead Generation Built for Video Production Workflows
With over a decade architecting AI systems for creative agencies, we've empowered 50+ production houses to own their lead pipelines, not chase them.
Why Choose Us
Generic lead gen tools treat every business like a commodity. Not us. At AIQ Labs, we engineer custom AI engines that scrape targeted sources—think industry forums, brand procurement sites, and social signals—for video production-ready prospects. These leads get enriched with project history, budget indicators, and creative needs, then flow seamlessly into your CRM. No more one-size-fits-all templates. This is enterprise-grade intelligence, custom-built to match your exact workflow, from storyboard pitches to post-production follow-ups. We've seen production teams double their qualified inquiries in under 90 days, turning sporadic gigs into sustained client relationships.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Predictable Growth Without Sacrificing Creative Focus
Precision Lead Targeting
Precision Lead Targeting: Our AI identifies brands actively seeking video services—think e-commerce firms needing 2-3 minute explainer videos or creative agencies hunting motion graphics partners—delivering 40% higher conversion rates than broad-net approaches within 4-6 weeks of implementation. No more sifting through noise; just prospects primed for your expertise in 4K production and storytelling.
Streamlined Qualification
Streamlined Qualification: Automate the grunt work of vetting leads by budget (e.g., $50K+ projects) and timeline (under 90 days), reducing manual review by 60% and enabling producers to focus on script development rather than dead-end calls, leading to project ramps in under two weeks and smoother client onboarding via integrated CRM workflows.
Scalable Relationship Building
Scalable Relationship Building: Build lasting client ties with enriched data that reveals past project preferences, such as recurring needs for testimonial series or AR-enhanced videos, enabling personalized follow-ups via automated nurture sequences. Agencies using our system report 25% repeat business uplift within 12 months, transforming one-off videos into ongoing production partnerships with retainer agreements.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we were scrambling for leads via cold emails that went nowhere. Their custom system pulled in 15 solid inquiries from SaaS tech brands needing 60-second promo videos in the first month alone—closed three deals worth $120K, including a series for a fintech client. It's like having a dedicated biz dev researcher who never sleeps, fully integrated with our project management tools."
Sarah Kline
Head of Creative Strategy, PixelForge Studios (Mid-sized video agency specializing in digital marketing content)
"Juggling proposals and prospecting was killing our small team's bandwidth during peak seasons. AIQ built us a lead engine that integrates with our Asana boards, spotting corporate clients hunting live event videography for hybrid conferences. Doubled our pipeline in Q2 without adding headcount, securing two $40K contracts—game-changer for staying lean while scaling remote shoots."
Mike Rivera
Founder & Executive Producer, VistaMotion Productions (Boutique firm focused on corporate event and virtual production)
"We specialize in long-form documentary work, but finding funders was hit-or-miss amid shifting grant cycles. Their AI enriched leads with grant history, production budgets over $50K, and nonprofit alignment, landing us an $80K project for an environmental NGO after just two weeks of targeted outreach. Finally, tools that understand our niche instead of forcing generic fits into branded spots."
Elena Torres
Senior Producer, FrameShift Media (Independent documentary and branded content studio)

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your lead generation differ from standard tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator?
Standard tools flood you with broad contacts, but our custom AI is laser-focused on video production. We build a proprietary engine that scrapes niche sources—think brand casting calls or agency RFPs—and enriches them with AI to predict project fit. For instance, if you specialize in animation, it prioritizes leads from gaming studios over generic marketers. This results in 3x higher qualification rates, integrated directly into your workflow without manual exports. We've helped production firms cut outreach waste by 65%, turning vague connections into booked shoots. It's not just volume; it's precision built for your creative edge.
What sources does the AI use to find leads for video companies?
We target video-specific ecosystems: industry directories like Mandy.com, social feeds from creative pros on Twitter and Instagram, procurement sites for corporate video needs, and even podcast transcripts where execs discuss content strategies. The AI intelligently scrapes and verifies, avoiding outdated data. For a client producing event videos, it pulled leads from conference organizer forums, enriching them with event budgets. This custom sourcing ensures relevance— no fishing in general B2B ponds. Plus, we layer in ethical filters to comply with data laws, delivering clean, actionable leads that respect your professional standards.
How long until we see results from the custom lead system?
Most video production clients see initial leads within 2-4 weeks post-launch, with full optimization hitting stride by month two. We start with a rapid discovery phase to map your ideal profiles, then deploy the AI engine. Early wins come from quick-win scrapes, like active job postings for videographers. One agency landed a $50K commercial after 18 days. From there, we iterate based on your feedback—refining scores for better matches, say, prioritizing e-learning video seekers. It's iterative, not set-it-and-forget-it, ensuring steady improvement aligned with your busy production cycles.
Is the system secure for handling sensitive production client data?
Absolutely—security is non-negotiable in client-relationship industries like video production. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all data in transit and at rest, with role-based access to protect prospect details. Our custom builds avoid third-party dependencies that could leak info, and we conduct regular audits to meet standards like SOC 2. For a client dealing with celebrity shoots, we ensured lead enrichments stayed anonymized until vetted. You retain full ownership, with options for on-premise hosting if needed. This peace of mind lets your team focus on creativity, not compliance worries.
Can this integrate with our existing video production software?
Yes, we specialize in seamless integrations with tools like Adobe Premiere workflows, Frame.io for reviews, or CRMs such as HubSpot tailored for agencies. The AI feeds enriched leads directly—populating custom fields with video project deets, triggering automated tasks like mood board shares. No clunky imports; it's a unified fabric. A recent build synced with their Monday.com boards, auto-assigning leads to producers based on expertise. If you use bespoke systems, our engineers map APIs two-way for real-time sync. This eliminates silos, making lead gen a natural extension of your creative pipeline.
What if our video niche is very specific, like medical animations?
We thrive on specificity—that's our custom edge. For niche areas like medical animations, the AI trains on targeted sources: healthcare conference recaps, pharma marketing briefs, and academic video requests. It enriches with details like regulatory needs (HIPAA compliance) to flag perfect fits. A client in explainer videos for biotech saw 25 qualified leads in the first quarter, all from enriched hospital procurement signals. We collaborate closely to define parameters, ensuring the system evolves with your portfolio. No generic molds; it's engineered for your exact creative focus, driving leads that resonate with specialized buyers.
