What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were buried in manual texts for 5,000-mile oil reminders—easily 12 hours a week during busy seasons. Now, their custom system handles it all via our shop management software, and we've seen a 28% uptick in repeat customers for alignments since rollout last quarter. It's like having an extra service advisor without the payroll hit."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, Quick Lube Express Chain (3 Locations in Midwest)
"Our old setup meant forgotten follow-ups on cabin air filter changes, costing us thousands in lost upsells on AC recharges. The AI automation they built integrates perfectly with our Reynolds & Reynolds DMS, saving us about $2,500 monthly in tool fees alone. Implementation took just three weeks, and it's been rock-solid for tracking warranty claims."
Sarah Patel
General Manager, AutoQuick Services (Full-Service Auto Repair Shop in Texas)
"I was skeptical about AI for our small chain, but this tailored solution personalized emails based on odometer readings and service history, boosting our open rates from 15% to 45% for brake service campaigns. We've reclaimed 10 hours weekly from admin, and revenue from loyalty campaigns jumped 22% in the first two months post-implementation."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle varying oil change intervals for different vehicles?
Our custom AI analyzes your customers' service records and vehicle specifics, like synthetic vs. conventional oil needs, to automate reminders at precise intervals—say, 5,000 miles for standard or 10,000 for high-mileage synthetics. This prevents over- or under-servicing, boosting customer trust and retention. We've seen shops reduce reminder errors by 90%, saving hours on follow-ups while increasing compliance with manufacturer guidelines. Integration with your VIN lookup tools ensures accuracy, and you can tweak thresholds based on your shop's data for even better personalization.
What if we already use a CRM for customer tracking?
No problem—we specialize in two-way integrations that pull and push data effortlessly between your existing CRM, like Tekmetric or GaragePlug, and our automation engine. For oil change services, this means real-time syncing of appointment histories to trigger timely campaigns without double-entry. Our builds eliminate data silos, creating a single source for everything from oil type preferences to last filter change. Clients typically see setup in under two weeks, with immediate gains in efficiency—no more manual exports that waste afternoons.
Can this system manage seasonal promotions for things like holiday tune-ups?
Absolutely. Our AI is designed to layer seasonal intelligence on top of your core workflows, automatically ramping up promotions for winter oil checks or summer AC services based on local weather patterns and historical booking trends. It segments your list to target high-value customers, like fleet owners, with tailored offers. Benchmarks show a 35% lift in seasonal revenue for similar setups. We customize the triggers to your calendar, ensuring promotions align with peak bay availability and don't overwhelm your staff.
How secure is the customer data in your marketing automation?
Security is paramount in automotive, where vehicle and personal data intersect. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, GDPR and CCPA compliance, and role-based access to protect info like service logs and contact details. Unlike cloud-based assemblers, our owned systems let you control data residency on your servers. Regular audits and AI anomaly detection prevent breaches, and we've helped shops pass vendor audits seamlessly. This peace of mind allows your team to focus on services, not security worries.
What's the typical timeline and cost for implementation?
For oil change-focused automation, we map your needs in week one, build and integrate in weeks two to four, then optimize post-launch. Total timeline: 4-6 weeks for most SMBs, depending on complexity. Costs start at a one-time build fee scaled to your operations—think $15K-$30K for a single-location setup—delivering ROI through 15+ hours saved weekly and 20-30% revenue uplift. No ongoing subscriptions; you own it. We provide a detailed quote after discovery, backed by case studies showing payback in 3-4 months.
Will my team need training to use this system?
We keep it intuitive for non-tech staff. After deployment, we offer 2-4 hours of hands-on training tailored to your oil change crew, covering dashboard navigation and campaign oversight. It's designed like your shop software—simple clicks to review automated sends or adjust reminders. Ongoing support via a dedicated portal means questions get answered fast, without downtime. Shops report teams up to speed in days, turning what was manual chaos into a productivity booster.
