Manual Instagram updates for daily specials eating into grill prep and peak lunch rush time
Struggling to retain lunch regulars without personalized texts about returning menu favorites
Guessing which limited-time burger promos work best for weekend farmers' market pop-ups
Juggling customer feedback on Yelp reviews and Uber Eats ratings across scattered digital channels

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency That Fuels Your Growth
Slash Weekly Marketing Time by 15 Hours
Slash Weekly Marketing Time by 15 Hours: Let's be honest, updating your Instagram stories about today's taco specials and emailing regulars about happy hour shouldn't steal time from prepping salsas or serving the lunch rush. Our system automates posts and sends, saving you 15+ hours weekly. That's like gaining an extra day to source fresh ingredients or expand to new markets. Owners report a 40% productivity boost, turning wasted manual work into more table-turning, revenue-generating hours—within the first month of setup.
Achieve 3x ROI Through Smarter Customer Engagement
Achieve 3x ROI Through Smarter Customer Engagement: You're probably thinking generic tools promise the world but deliver chaos. Not ours. By analyzing your POS sales data from busy weekends, we automate targeted SMS campaigns for 'your go-to wrap is back' that bring back 30% more repeat customers within two months. Picture cutting ad costs by 25% on Google Ads while boosting loyalty sign-ups by 50% during peak seasons—real efficiency gains that pay for themselves in 3-6 months, not years.
Boost Operational Flow with Predictive Insights
Boost Operational Flow with Predictive Insights: Food service is all about timing, like knowing when to fire up the grill for a lunch rush or stock extra ice for a heatwave. Our custom AI forecasts promo success based on local weather, nearby events like food festivals, and past foot traffic data, reducing guesswork by 50%. This means fewer slow days with unsold inventory and a 20% uptick in efficiency during high-volume periods, letting your team focus on what they do best: creating memorable eats and upselling add-ons.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, I was spending evenings manually texting customers about our new farmers' market spot—total headache with just a crew of three during taco season. Now, the system pulls from our Square POS to send personalized alerts like 'Your favorite al pastor is back this weekend,' and we've gained 50 more regulars weekly since launch. Saved me from burnout juggling festival bookings last summer."
Maria Gonzalez
Owner, Taco Trekker Food Truck, Austin TX
"We used to guess which Instagram posts about our smash burgers pulled crowds to the office park lot, wasting hours on trial and error every shift. Their custom setup tracks engagement and auto-posts based on our Toast menu changes, like highlighting the spicy special. In three months, engagement doubled, foot traffic rose 25%, and I cut my marketing time from 10 hours to 2 per week. Total game-changer for keeping our burger truck rolling during lunch rushes."
Jamal Reed
Founder and Head Chef, Grill on Wheels Mobile Eatery, Chicago IL
"Our loyalty program was a mess—manual emails from Gmail led to complaints about outdated falafel offers during market days. AIQ built an integration with our Clover POS that personalizes rewards, like 'Your favorite veggie wrap is 20% off at the weekend market.' Revenue from repeats jumped 35% last quarter, and I finally get weekends off instead of chasing feedback on DoorDash reviews."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle my truck's changing locations?
We get it—your spot isn't fixed like a brick-and-mortar. Our custom system integrates with your GPS or scheduling app to automatically update customers via email or social blasts. For example, if you're at the farmers market today, it sends 'Catch us at the market with fresh falafel!' to your loyalty list. This saves you from manual posts, and we've seen trucks boost attendance by 20% this way. Setup takes about two weeks, tailored to your routes, so no more missed connections.
What's the ROI like for a small food truck operation?
You're probably thinking about the bottom line, especially with tight margins. Our clients typically see 3x ROI in the first year through time savings and increased repeats. Say you save 15 hours weekly on marketing—that's $500+ in labor costs alone at $20/hour. Plus, personalized campaigns often lift sales 25-30%, based on POS data. We build it custom, so it pays off fast without ongoing fees eating into profits. One truck owner recouped the build cost in four months via better crowd pulls.
Can it integrate with my existing POS and social accounts?
Absolutely, and that's where we shine. We don't force new tools; instead, we create deep, two-way integrations with popular POS like Square or Toast, and social platforms like Instagram. Your sales data flows directly into the system to trigger targeted promos, like rewarding top buyers. No more double-entry headaches. For a recent BBQ truck, this cut errors by 90% and automated reward sends. We'll map it to your setup during discovery, ensuring everything syncs seamlessly from day one.
How much time does setup take, and what's involved?
Setup is straightforward but custom, usually 4-6 weeks to go live. We start with a deep dive into your operations—your menu rotations, peak times, customer base. Then our engineers build and test the automation, integrating your tools. You'll get hands-on training, like how to approve AI-drafted posts in minutes. It's not plug-and-play; it's precision-built. A falafel truck we worked with was up and running in five weeks, already saving 10 hours weekly on outreach.
Is this secure for handling customer data in food service?
Security is non-negotiable, especially with loyalty info and payment ties. We build with enterprise-grade encryption and compliance in mind, like GDPR for customer privacy. Data stays in your owned system, not scattered across subscriptions. For food trucks, this means safe handling of preferences without breach risks. We've audited our builds for regulated clients, ensuring no vulnerabilities. One owner noted it gave peace of mind during high-traffic events, focusing on service instead of worries.
What if my marketing needs change with seasons?
Food trucks live by seasons—summer festivals, winter pop-ups. Our system is designed to adapt, with AI that learns from your data to tweak campaigns. For instance, it shifts from beach-day promos to cozy soup specials automatically. You can adjust parameters easily via the dashboard, and we provide quarterly optimizations. A client with seasonal shifts saw sustained 25% engagement lifts year-round. It's flexible, built for your evolving workflow, not rigid templates.
