Our Custom Lead Management Automation Built for Architects
We've engineered solutions for over 50 construction firms, integrating AI directly into tools like Revit and Procore to handle the unique chaos of architectural leads.
Why Choose Us
Let's be honest, as an architect, you're juggling blueprints, client meetings, and a flood of potential project leads from everywhere—emails, calls, even napkin sketches at networking events. Here's the thing: manual tracking in spreadsheets or disjointed apps wastes hours you'll never get back, and worse, lets hot leads like that high-rise RFP slip away. At AIQ Labs, we build a tailored AI system that captures every lead automatically, scores them based on your firm's sweet spots—like sustainable builds or urban renovations—and routes them to the right team member. No more subscription patchwork; this is a unified, owned platform that fits your exact workflow, from initial inquiry to contract signing. You're probably thinking, 'Will this actually work for my mixed residential-commercial pipeline?' Absolutely—we customize it to your reality, ensuring seamless handoffs and real-time updates that keep your projects moving forward without the admin drag.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Tangible Time and Cost Wins for Your Firm
Reclaim 15+ Hours Weekly on Manual Lead Chasing
Reclaim 15+ Hours Weekly on Manual Lead Chasing: Imagine your team skipping the afternoon slog of sorting subcontractor referrals for rebar suppliers or client emails on concrete pours—our AI automates it. For a mid-sized firm handling warehouse builds, that's like adding a full-time estimator without the salary bump; those hours let you focus on optimizing shop drawings or prototyping assembly lines, bumping billable output by 20% in the next quarter.
Achieve 3x Faster Lead-to-Project Conversion
Achieve 3x Faster Lead-to-Project Conversion: In hot bids for industrial plants or custom millwork, leads vanish quick. Our system scores high-ROI ones, like bumping a repeat client's prefab module inquiry based on prior steel frame collabs. Firms converting at 15% now hit 45% within 3-6 months, transforming scattershot pursuits into steady wins on multimillion-dollar fabrications.
Cut Overhead Costs by 25% with Unified Tracking
Cut Overhead Costs by 25% with Unified Tracking: Ditch juggling siloed apps for subcontractor RFIs and material requisitions—our build syncs with your Procore or Autodesk stack, nixing duplicate entries on plumbing bids. Like optimizing crane logistics on-site, it cuts errors and saves $50K+ yearly on missed fabricator leads, with full ROI in your first 90-day project phase.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, leads from CONEXPO trade shows got buried in our residential high-rise pipeline—last year, we missed two $1.5M commercial office retrofits. Now, automation pings us on urgent RFPs for structural steel, and we've closed 12 new multifamily projects in six months without hiring extras. It's transformed how we keep elevations and MEP designs on schedule."
Elena Vasquez
Principal Architect, BuildForge Studio (Specializing in Urban Residential and Commercial Developments)
"Truth is, manual tracking was dragging us down on factory floor retrofits for automation lines. Their system plugged right into our Procore and ERP setup, reclaiming 10 hours weekly on vendor follow-ups for conveyor installs. We snagged a $2M hospital HVAC expansion we nearly overlooked—ROI cleared in the first quarter with zero added headcount."
Marcus Hale
Senior Project Director, Apex Industrial Designs (Focused on Manufacturing Plant Upgrades)
"You might doubt automation at first, but for our urban infill projects with tight tolerances, it delivered. No more chaotic notes from client job walks on foundation layouts; leads get scored and assigned to our BIM team instantly. We've ramped productivity 30% in four months, pouring energy into innovative cladding designs over paperwork—essential for architects pushing prefab boundaries."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle leads from informal networking events common in architecture?
In construction and manufacturing, leads often start as casual chats at trade shows or site visits—not neat emails. Our custom AI scans various inputs like scanned business cards, voice notes, or even uploaded photos of napkin sketches, then enriches them with context from your CRM. For instance, if a lead mentions a retrofit project, it cross-references your past designs and scores it highly. This setup saves architects about 5-7 hours weekly on manual entry, integrating directly into your workflow without forcing a new app. We've tailored it for firms like yours, ensuring it's practical and ROI-focused from setup. No generic templates—it's built to your exact mix of residential and commercial inquiries.
What kind of time savings can architects expect from this lead management system?
Let's be honest, manual lead tracking in spreadsheets or scattered apps can eat up 10-20 hours a week for a small architecture team, especially during bid season. Our automation captures, scores, and nurtures leads automatically, reclaiming that time for actual design work. A typical firm sees 15+ hours saved weekly—think no more chasing forgotten referrals from contractors. This translates to efficiency gains like 30% more billable hours and quicker project starts. We're ROI-driven, so we include metrics tracking to prove the impact, like reduced follow-up time from days to minutes, all customized to your construction pipeline without the hassle of multiple tools.
Is this system customizable for different types of architectural projects?
Absolutely—unlike off-the-shelf software that treats all leads the same, we build it around your firm's specialties, whether sustainable commercial builds or custom manufacturing facilities. During discovery, we map your workflow, then engineer AI rules that score leads based on factors like project scale, location, or client type. For example, a high-rise RFP might get priority over a small residential tweak. This tailored approach boosts productivity by focusing your team on high-ROI opportunities, with integrations to tools like Revit for seamless handoffs. It's field-tested for construction realities, delivering quantifiable wins like 25% cost reductions in lead management without generic jargon.
How secure is the lead data in this automation for sensitive architectural info?
Security is non-negotiable in construction, where leads often include proprietary sketches or bid details. We architect the system with enterprise-grade encryption, role-based access, and compliance with standards like GDPR or industry regs for manufacturing data. Your leads stay in a unified, owned platform—no risky third-party clouds. We've handled this for firms dealing with confidential RFPs, ensuring audit trails for every interaction. Plus, it's scalable, so as your practice grows, security scales too. The result? Peace of mind alongside those time savings, with zero breaches in our deployments, all built custom to protect your competitive edge.
What's the ROI timeline for implementing lead management automation?
You're probably thinking about payback periods in a tight-margin industry like architecture. Most firms see positive ROI within 1-3 months, with initial setup taking 4-6 weeks. By automating manual tasks like sorting contractor inquiries, you cut costs by 20-30% on admin overhead and boost conversions, leading to an extra project or two per quarter. For a $5M firm, that's often $50K+ in recovered revenue. We focus on measurable gains—hours saved, leads closed faster—and provide dashboards to track it. It's practical, field-tested, and avoids subscription traps, giving you a owned asset that pays dividends long-term in your construction workflow.
Can this integrate with our existing project management tools?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations with construction staples like Procore, Autodesk, or even custom ERP for manufacturing tie-ins. No superficial connections that break—our engineers build robust APIs to pull leads directly into your pipeline, updating statuses as designs progress. For example, a new lead from a site visit auto-populates with timeline estimates from your templates. This eliminates data silos, saving hours on manual syncing and reducing errors in bid tracking. Tailored to your setup, it's designed for ROI, with firms reporting 40% efficiency boosts. We're builders, not assemblers, ensuring it fits your exact operational flow without disruption.
