What Clients Say

"Before AIQ, I'd spend evenings typing up job logs from crumpled notes on door casings and architrave measurements—it was killing my family time. Now, the system pulls precise dimensions straight from site photos, and I've cut that to under 30 minutes a day. Landed two extra custom cabinet jobs last quarter because I could quote 25% faster on shaker-style installs."

Mike Reynolds

Owner, Reynolds Custom Woodworks LLC, specializing in kitchen and bath cabinetry

"Tracking cedar lumber and redwood decking for multiple site crews was a nightmare; we'd overorder by 15% every time on pergola builds. Their custom automation flags usage in real-time via barcode scans, and we're saving about $2,500 a month on materials. It's like having an extra foreman who never forgets the exact board foot counts."

Sarah Patel

Operations Manager, Patel Fine Carpentry Inc., focused on outdoor structures and fine millwork

"We were buried in emails chasing client approvals for baseboard and crown molding changes on historic remodels. The AI now auto-extracts and logs them, integrating right into our Gantt scheduling for trim phases. Closed a big Victorian home remodel project two weeks early, and the client raved about our organization—directly led to three referrals in the next month."

Simple 3-Step Process

Step 1

Workflow Audit and Custom Mapping

We dive into your daily grind— from site sketches to shop inventories—identifying every manual entry point. Then, we blueprint a tailored AI solution that fits your exact tools and processes, ensuring zero disruption to ongoing builds.

Step 2

AI Development and Seamless Integration

Our engineers code your system from scratch, incorporating features like voice-to-text for on-site notes and auto-sync with your accounting. We test rigorously on sample projects, like a mock deck quote, to guarantee 99% accuracy before launch.

Step 3

Deployment, Training, and Ongoing Optimization

Rollout happens in phases, starting with one crew or site. We train your team hands-on, then monitor performance—tweaking for things like seasonal lumber fluctuations. You own it all, with our support scaling as your business grows.

Why We're Different

We build from code, not no-code crutches, delivering scalable systems that handle your busiest renovation seasons without crashing—unlike fragile templates that break under real workshop demands.

True ownership means no endless subscriptions; we create a unified asset you control, eliminating the 20+ tool chaos that plagues 70% of home services firms.

Our deep trades expertise comes from partnering with carpenters on real pain points, like variable material costs, ensuring solutions that boost your ROI by 300% faster than generic assemblers.

We prioritize production-ready integrations with tools like Xero or Housecall Pro, forging unbreakable links that save you 40 hours monthly—far beyond superficial connectors.

Unlike agencies juggling vendor dependencies, our in-house platforms prove we can architect complex automations, from multi-site logging to predictive quoting, tailored solely to your workflow.

We focus on quantifiable outcomes, like 25% error reduction in material tracking, backed by our track record with 150+ SMBs—not vague promises from no-code hustlers.

Our process starts with your shop floor realities, not cookie-cutter demos, resulting in custom UIs that feel intuitive for field crews wielding tape measures, not keyboards.

We eliminate integration nightmares by design, creating a single source of truth for job data that prevents the costly overruns hitting 15% of carpentry projects.

As builders ourselves, we avoid the subscription trap, handing you a robust, owned system that scales with your crew size—proven to cut admin costs by 35%.

Our edge? End-to-end engineering that turns your data into actionable insights, like forecasting trim needs, empowering decisions that grow your business sustainably.

Common Questions

How does this automation handle the variability in custom carpentry measurements?

Our system uses advanced AI to process variable inputs like irregular wood cuts or on-site adjustments via photo uploads or voice notes. For instance, it can parse a quick snap of a crooked wall frame and auto-calculate trim needs, reducing manual math errors by 90%. We tailor the algorithms to your typical projects—think bespoke shelving or crown molding—so it learns your patterns. Setup involves a one-time calibration with your past jobs, and it integrates directly with your quoting app. Clients see setup in under two weeks, with immediate accuracy gains that prevent costly recuts. No more second-guessing dimensions mid-build.

What if my crew isn't tech-savvy—will they actually use this on job sites?

We design for the trades, not offices. The interface is dead simple: tap to scan a measurement, speak a note, and it logs everything without typing. Training takes one afternoon, focusing on real scenarios like logging lumber for a deck. We've onboarded rough-framing teams with zero tech background, and adoption hits 95% because it saves them hassle. Post-launch, we provide quick video guides and a helpline. One carpenter crew went from resisting to relying on it daily, cutting their end-of-day paperwork from 45 minutes to 5. It's built tough for sites—no fragile screens, just reliable automation that fits their workflow.

How secure is the data, especially with client home details involved?

Security is non-negotiable in home services. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all data in transit and at rest, compliant with standards like GDPR and SOC 2. Client addresses or custom design specs are anonymized where possible and access-controlled by role—crews see only job essentials. Our systems have zero breaches in five years, audited annually. For carpenters, this means safe storage of sensitive remodel plans without risking leaks. We also include audit logs to track changes, helping you maintain trust. Integration with your existing tools adds another layer, ensuring nothing leaves your controlled ecosystem.

Can this integrate with my current tools like Jobber or QuickBooks?

Absolutely—seamless integration is our hallmark. We build deep, two-way API connections that pull data from Jobber for scheduling and push updates to QuickBooks for invoicing, all without manual exports. For a carpentry firm, this means a site measurement auto-triggers a material order and invoice draft. Setup scans your current stack, mapping exactly how data flows—like syncing crew logs to payroll. No brittle Zapier hacks; our custom code ensures 99.9% uptime. Firms report 50% faster month-end closes after integration, freeing owners from reconciliation headaches.

What's the timeline and cost for implementing this in my small shop?

For a typical carpentry operation with 5-10 crew, we deliver a MVP in 4-6 weeks, starting with core logging and quoting. Full rollout, including training, wraps in 8 weeks. Costs start at $15,000 for custom build, scaling with complexity—no recurring fees since you own it. ROI hits fast: one client offset costs in two months via 20 hours saved weekly at $50/hour labor. We offer a free audit to pinpoint your bottlenecks and quote precisely. Phased payments align with milestones, like after your first automated project bid.

Will this scale if I expand to more sites or hire additional carpenters?

Yes, our architecture is built for growth. The system handles multi-site data without performance dips, auto-scaling cloud resources as your crew grows from 5 to 50. For expanding carpenters, it adds features like centralized inventory for shared tools across jobs. We've scaled solutions for firms doubling revenue, maintaining speed on 100+ weekly logs. Updates are modular—you add sites via config, no rebuilds. Long-term, AI refines predictions for bigger projects, like whole-home millwork, ensuring efficiency as you take on larger contracts.
