What Clients Say

"Before AIQ Labs, we'd spend 20 minutes per quote just pulling inventory numbers for Schlage cylinders, and half the time they'd change by the time we got to the residential job site. Now, quotes pop up in seconds with real-time stock checks, and we've cut our overestimation errors by 80%. Last quarter alone, that saved us $8,000 in wasted key blanks and materials."

Mike Rivera

Owner, Riverside Lock & Key Services

"Emergency lockouts don't wait, but our old process did—customers would hang up frustrated during 2 AM calls. The custom AI they built pulls in our pricing for everything from Kwikset padlocks to August smart lock integrations instantly. My close rate jumped from 65% to 92% in two months, and I'm not chasing payments for incomplete rekey jobs as much anymore."

Sarah Patel

Operations Manager, SecureHome Residential Locksmiths

"I was skeptical about AI for quotes, thinking it wouldn't handle our custom high-security safe installations or Medeco deadbolt rekeys right. But after they tailored it to our workflow, it's like having an extra estimator on staff for multi-unit apartments. We saved 12 hours a week on admin, and our team is out on more emergency calls instead of stuck in the office crunching numbers."

Common Questions

How does this automation handle variable costs like rush fees for after-hours lockouts?

Our custom AI incorporates dynamic pricing rules you define, such as adding 50% premiums for nights or weekends. It pulls from your service catalog and real-time factors like travel distance, ensuring quotes reflect true costs without manual overrides. For a typical locksmith, this means generating a $250 emergency rekey quote in seconds, complete with breakdowns for labor, parts, and surcharges. We've fine-tuned this for 40+ clients, reducing underquoting errors by 85% and helping them capture $5K+ in additional revenue monthly.

Will the system integrate with my existing scheduling software?

Absolutely. We specialize in two-way integrations with popular tools like Jobber, ServiceTitan, or even custom CRMs used by locksmiths. The AI pulls job details—like site addresses or lock types—directly into quotes and pushes approved ones back to your calendar. This eliminates double-entry, saving your dispatchers 10 hours weekly. In one deployment for a 15-technician firm, integration cut scheduling conflicts by 70%, ensuring vans roll out with accurate prep every time.

What if my business has unique services, like automotive key programming?

We tailor the AI to your exact offerings, training it on specifics like transponder keys or high-security vehicle systems. During discovery, we map your workflows, so quotes account for variables like vehicle makes or programming tools. A client specializing in auto locksmithing saw their quote accuracy rise to 97%, turning complex jobs from 45-minute estimates to instant generations. This customization avoids the one-size-fits-all issues of generic tools, directly boosting your efficiency on specialized calls.

How secure is the system for handling customer lock codes?

Security is paramount in locksmithing, so we build with enterprise-grade encryption and role-based access, ensuring sensitive data like master keys stays protected. The system complies with standards like GDPR and SOC 2, with audit logs for every quote access. Unlike cloud-based templates that expose data broadly, our owned solution keeps everything on your secure servers. One partner reported zero breaches after two years, giving them peace of mind during high-volume residential jobs.

What's the timeline for seeing ROI from this automation?

Most locksmiths recoup their investment in 4-6 weeks through time savings alone—think 12-18 hours reclaimed weekly at $50/hour labor cost, equating to $2,400 monthly. Add in higher close rates from faster quotes, and ROI hits 300% in the first quarter. We track metrics from launch, adjusting as needed. A recent client, a mid-sized operation, broke even in 28 days by converting 15% more leads into $300+ jobs, proving the system's immediate impact on cash flow.

Can the AI learn from my past quotes to improve over time?

Yes, our machine learning component analyzes your historical data—successful jobs, rejected quotes, and adjustments—to refine future estimates. It identifies patterns, like frequent upsells on multi-point locks, and suggests them proactively. Over six months, this adaptation improved one firm's prediction accuracy by 25%, reducing revisions and delighting clients with spot-on pricing. It's not static; the system evolves with your business, ensuring sustained efficiency gains.
