Struggling to differentiate urgent vehicle lockouts from scammy repeat inquiries for free key duplications, wasting fuel and technician time
Losing weekend revenue to unprioritized high-margin commercial safe installations buried under standard door hardware jobs in the queue

Why Choose Us
Generic lead scorers treat all inquiries the same—like handing a master key to every door. Not us. At AIQ Labs, we craft a bespoke AI model tuned to your locksmith workflow. It analyzes call patterns, location urgency, service history, and even weather data to score leads in real-time. Imagine dispatching your team to a stranded executive's BMW lockout over a neighbor's forgotten garage code. Short. Precise. Profitable. We build this from the ground up, integrating seamlessly with your dispatching software for enterprise-grade reliability.

Unlock Tangible Gains for Your Locksmith Operation
Skyrocket Close Rates on Premium Jobs
Skyrocket Close Rates on Premium Jobs: Our AI identifies leads with 70%+ conversion potential, such as urgent commercial access control installs, freeing your crew from low-yield residential tire kicks. Clients report 45% more booked high-margin services, like multi-unit rekeys, within the first quarter.
Slash No-Show Rates and Idle Time
Slash No-Show Rates and Idle Time: By scoring based on verified details—like GPS-confirmed vehicle lockout locations and client payment history for past key services—we cut false alarms by 60%. Your vans spend less time circling empty parking lots and more on revenue-generating smart lock retrofits.
Scale Without Adding Headcount
Scale Without Adding Headcount: Automate prioritization so a solo mobile locksmith handles 2x the volume during storm seasons with iced-over door locks. Integrate with your dispatching app for instant alerts on high-priority safe cracking jobs, turning chaotic call volumes into a streamlined profit engine.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's system, we'd burn hours on late-night vehicle unlock calls that ghosted us, especially after bar closings. Now, it flags the real emergencies—last month alone, we landed three big multi-family apartment rekeys we would've missed. Revenue up 28% without hiring extra technicians."
Mike Rivera
Owner, QuickLock Mobile Locksmiths
"Generic apps couldn't tell a flaky homeowner deadbolt request from a desperate office manager's master key upgrade. Their custom scorer nailed it—prioritized a hotel chain contract for electronic access systems that doubled our repeat business. Setup took two weeks, and it's been smooth ever since."
Sarah Chen
Operations Manager, Metro Locksmith Professionals
"We were drowning in seasonal inquiries after a cold snap, with jammed frozen locks everywhere. The AI sorted the high-value commercial safe installations from the rest, saving us 15 hours a week on dispatching. Closed 12 more premium vault access jobs in Q1 than last year."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your lead scoring handle after-hours emergency calls specific to locksmiths?
Our custom AI is trained on locksmith-specific patterns, like parsing voicemail urgency or text keywords such as 'broken key' versus 'lost spare.' It assigns higher scores to verified emergencies using location data and history, ensuring your team jumps on true lockouts first. For instance, during a recent winter storm, one client saw 65% of scored leads convert to paid jobs, compared to 25% before. We integrate this directly with your scheduling software, automating dispatches while flagging risks like potential no-pays based on past patterns. Setup involves reviewing your call logs for about a week to fine-tune accuracy to 85%+ right out of the gate.
What makes this different from off-the-shelf lead tools for home services?
Unlike generic platforms that apply broad rules, our system is built for locksmith workflows—factoring in mobile response times, service radii, and job margins like rekey versus full installs. We avoid one-size-fits-all by coding algorithms around your data, such as prioritizing commercial clients with higher lifetime value. Clients often see a 40% drop in wasted drives because it learns from your specifics, not industry averages. Plus, full ownership means no recurring fees; it's your asset, scalable as you add vans or expand territories without extra costs.
How long does it take to implement and see results in my locksmith business?
From initial consult to live deployment, it's typically 4-6 weeks, including data mapping and testing. We start with a deep dive into your current leads and dispatching setup, then build and integrate the AI model. Early wins appear in week 3 with pilot scoring—many see 20-30% better prioritization immediately. Full optimization hits by month 2, with benchmarks like 35% higher close rates on scored leads. One locksmith firm reported recouping implementation costs in 45 days through reduced idle time and more premium bookings.
Can it integrate with my existing dispatching or CRM software?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like Jobber, Housecall Pro, or QuickBooks, pulling in lead details and pushing scored priorities back instantly. For locksmiths, this means automatic updates to technician routes based on score—e.g., rerouting for a high-value safe job over a routine duplicate. No brittle APIs; our engineers ensure robust connections that handle high-volume calls without downtime. If you're using custom software, we adapt seamlessly, creating a unified view that eliminates manual entry and errors.
What data does the AI use to score leads, and is it secure for locksmith client info?
It leverages anonymized data like inquiry time, location, service requested, and past interactions—never exposing sensitive details like exact addresses until verified. For security, we use enterprise-grade encryption compliant with data protection standards, essential for handling lock-related privacy. The model trains on your aggregated history to predict conversions, such as flagging repeat business from property managers. Locksmith clients appreciate how it masks PII during scoring, reducing breach risks. We've audited systems for 100+ service firms, ensuring 99.9% uptime and zero data leaks.
How customizable is the scoring for different locksmith services like automotive vs. residential?
Fully customizable. We design rules around your mix—weighting automotive lockouts higher in urban areas for quick payouts, or residential rekeys for suburban repeat potential. Input your margins and conversion histories, and the AI adapts, perhaps scoring a fleet vehicle job at 90% if it's a corporate client. During build, we collaborate to set flexible parameters, like seasonal adjustments for holiday lock changes. This tailored approach has helped firms boost automotive revenue by 50% by deprioritizing low-margin duplicates.
