Why Choose Us
Generic CRMs treat all leads the same, ignoring the nuances of web design projects—from initial mood board requests to complex e-commerce builds. We engineer a tailored AI solution that ingests leads from your website forms, Slack channels, and client portals. It scores them based on project scope, budget signals, and your past successful engagements. No more one-size-fits-all dashboards. This is enterprise-grade intelligence, custom-coded to fit your exact client nurturing process, ensuring every potential partnership gets the attention it deserves.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Agency Growth Through Precision Lead Handling
Boost Project Close Rates by 40%
Boost Project Close Rates by 40%: Our AI analyzes lead behavior—such as repeated site visits to your UX case studies or downloads of branding guides—to predict conversion likelihood for retainer proposals. Agencies see a 40% uplift in closing rates within 90 days, focusing efforts on leads ready for scoping sessions rather than chasing unqualified RFPs.
Cut Administrative Overhead in Half
Cut Administrative Overhead in Half: Automate the grunt work of logging RFP inquiries and scheduling client discovery calls. Your creative team reclaims 10-15 hours weekly, redirecting energy to wireframing and pitch deck development, with benchmarks showing a 50% drop in manual data entry across project pipelines.
Foster Deeper Client Relationships
Foster Deeper Client Relationships: Track every interaction from initial RFP submission to post-launch UX audits, building a single view of evolving client needs in branding and digital strategy. This leads to 25% more repeat business within 12 months, as personalized nurturing turns one-off website redesigns into multi-year retainers.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our leads were buried in emails, Slack channels, and Google Sheets. Now, the system flags high-potential redesign projects based on budget signals from RFP forms—we closed a $150K e-commerce platform build last quarter that we'd have missed amid the influx. It's like having an extra account manager who never sleeps, especially during our busy Q4 proposal season."
Sarah Jenkins
Creative Director at PixelForge Design Agency
"We juggled three tools for lead tracking—our CRM, project tracker, and email inbox—and it was total chaos during peak seasons with back-to-back client pitches. Their custom setup integrated seamlessly with Asana and Salesforce, cutting our RFP qualification time from days to just 2-3 hours. We landed two six-figure retainer clients for ongoing branding in the first month—absolute game-changer for our lean team of 12."
Mike Rivera
Operations Lead at Nexus Digital Agency
"The AI scoring nailed it for us; it prioritized leads based on our UX/UI expertise in enterprise redesigns, ignoring low-budget tire-kickers from generic inquiries. We've seen a 35% revenue bump year-over-year from better-focused discovery calls, and the dashboard feels like it was built just for our agile workflow—no training needed, we were up and running in a week."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your lead management differ from standard CRM tools for web agencies?
Standard CRMs like HubSpot offer templates that don't grasp the ebb and flow of design projects—think sporadic RFPs versus steady B2B leads. We custom-build an AI system that understands your world: scoring a lead higher if it mentions 'responsive redesign' based on your expertise. It integrates natively with your tools, automates nuanced follow-ups like sharing case studies, and provides ownership without subscriptions. Agencies report 30-50% faster pipeline velocity, as it's tuned to your workflow, not a generic sales funnel.
What kinds of leads does this system handle best for design agencies?
Our solution excels with project-based inquiries: website overhauls, branding packages, or e-commerce launches. It captures details from forms or calls—like budget ranges or tech stacks—and scores them against your sweet spots, such as WordPress expertise. For instance, it flags enterprise leads needing custom UI/UX. Unlike broad tools, it filters out mismatches early, focusing your team on high-fit opportunities. We've seen agencies double their retainer conversions by nurturing these precisely, with AI handling the initial qualification to free up creatives.
How long does it take to implement and see results?
Implementation typically spans 4-6 weeks: one week for discovery, two for building and testing integrations, and one for deployment with training. Quick wins emerge immediately—automated scoring and alerts can boost response times by day one. Full ROI hits in 60-90 days, with clients often seeing 25% more qualified leads flowing into their pipeline. We monitor post-launch, tweaking the AI based on your data, ensuring it adapts to seasonal rushes like Q4 redesign spikes without disrupting your operations.
Is the system secure for handling sensitive client project details?
Absolutely. We use enterprise-grade security: end-to-end encryption for lead data, role-based access to protect IP like mood boards or wireframes, and compliance with GDPR/CCPA for international clients. Unlike cloud CRMs with shared infrastructures, our custom builds run on your preferred secure hosting, with audit logs for every interaction. For agencies, this means peace of mind when storing RFP specs or budget notes—no breaches that could erode client trust. We've audited systems for creative firms, ensuring zero data leaks in high-stakes environments.
Can this integrate with our existing design and project tools?
Yes, we specialize in deep integrations. Whether you're using Figma for prototypes, Trello for task tracking, or QuickBooks for invoicing, our AI bridges them seamlessly via APIs. For example, a new lead auto-populates project briefs in Asana and flags budget alignment in your accounting. No more manual syncing that eats into billable hours. We've connected disparate stacks for dozens of agencies, creating a unified view that turns lead data into actionable project insights, reducing errors by up to 60%.
What if our agency scales—will the system handle more leads?
Built for growth, our architecture scales effortlessly. Starting with 50 leads monthly? It handles 500 without a hitch, using cloud-optimized code that auto-scales during peaks like post-awards influx. AI models retrain dynamically on new data, improving accuracy as your portfolio expands. Agencies we've partnered with scaled from 20 to 100 team members, maintaining 99.9% uptime and sub-second query speeds. It's not a temporary fix—it's a foundational asset that grows with your business, avoiding the rework of outgrowing off-the-shelf tools.
