What Makes Us Different:
Quantifiable Gains That Scale Your Operations
Reclaim 20+ Hours Weekly on Manual Tasks
Reclaim 20+ Hours Weekly on Manual Tasks: Foremen no longer chase leads or sift through unqualified electrician resumes. Our AI automates sourcing certified tradespeople and initial skills assessments, allowing focus on wiring installs or site prep. Home services benchmarks from NAHB data reveal firms save $15,000 annually per role by filling positions 30% faster, with peak-season efficiency gains reaching 35% during summer AC surges.
Achieve 4x ROI Through Reduced Turnover
Achieve 4x ROI Through Reduced Turnover: Mismatched hires in roofing crews cost up to $10,000 each in retraining for ladder safety and lost shingle installation productivity. Our AI matching algorithm evaluates experience with asphalt shingles or slate roofing, reducing bad fits by 60% and elevating crew retention to 85%, which drives project completion rates to 95% on tight-deadline home renos.
Scale Hiring Without Extra Headcount
Scale Hiring Without Extra Headcount: As spring demand spikes for gutter installations or deck builds, our system auto-scales to source 50+ local candidates monthly, embedding OSHA safety verifications and tool proficiency checks. This yields a 25% productivity lift, transforming hiring from a crew shortage bottleneck into a seamless edge—equivalent to swapping outdated ladders for powered scaffolding that keeps jobs on schedule.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, Fridays were lost to cold-calling for certified HVAC techs, often settling for underqualified installs that caused callbacks. Now, it identifies EPA-certified pros within 48 hours for refrigerant handling, and we've filled four seasonal spots in a month without overtime overruns or delayed furnace swaps during fall rushes."
Mike Reynolds
Operations Manager, ClearView HVAC Services
"Hiring for our plumbing teams was unpredictable; we'd lose top pipefitters to rivals with better role matches. Their AI screened for expertise in PEX piping and drain line repairs, dropping our quarterly turnover from 40% to 12%. No more trial-and-error on emergency service calls."
Sarah Patel
HR Director, Precision Plumbing Solutions
"We synced this with our field management software, auto-scheduling interviews around roofing site inspections. Recruited a full crew of seven certified roofers in 10 days for a subdivision project—slashed agency fees by 55% and preserved our 28% margins on shingle replacements."

Founder and CEO, Apex Roofing Contractors

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle the unique skills needed for window installation?
Our custom AI is trained on industry-specific data, scanning for essentials like experience with tempered glass, sill sealing techniques, and height safety protocols. Unlike generic tools, it filters out mismatches—say, a roofer without framing knowledge—delivering a shortlist of vetted pros ready for your crews. We've seen window firms reduce screening time from days to hours, with 85% of sourced candidates meeting on-site requirements right away. It's all built around your workflow, integrating with tools like Housecall Pro for a smooth handoff.
What kind of time savings can we expect in our hiring process?
Window companies typically lose 15-25 hours weekly to manual recruiting during peak seasons. Our system automates sourcing, screening, and scheduling, cutting that to 3-5 hours. For a mid-sized firm, this means filling a vacancy in 7 days instead of 21, saving $8,000 in lost productivity per role. Real clients report a 40% faster time-to-hire, with ROI hitting break-even in the first month through reduced overtime and agency fees. We tailor it to your volume, ensuring scalability without added costs.
Is the system secure for handling candidate data in our industry?
Absolutely—security is non-negotiable for trades dealing with certifications and personal info. We use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with standards like GDPR and CCPA, plus home services specifics like HIPAA for any health-related physical checks. Your data stays in a owned system, not scattered across vendors, minimizing breach risks that affect 30% of SMBs yearly. We've audited integrations to prevent leaks, and provide full access controls so only authorized foremen see sensitive details. It's peace of mind built in.
Can this integrate with our existing software like QuickBooks or Jobber?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations that create a single source of truth. For instance, new hires auto-populate in QuickBooks for payroll, while Jobber gets updated crew availability for scheduling window replacements. No more double-entry errors that plague 60% of home services ops. Our engineers map your exact workflow—perhaps linking to inventory for tool assignments—ensuring everything syncs in real-time. Past projects show 95% error reduction, letting you focus on installs, not data wrangling.
How much does a custom recruiting automation cost for our size?
Costs start at $25,000 for a tailored build, scaling with complexity like multi-location support or advanced analytics. For a 20-person window team, expect $35,000 including integration and three months of optimization—far below the $50,000+ in annual losses from slow hiring. We provide a detailed ROI projection upfront, often showing payback in 4-6 months via 30% lower turnover costs. Unlike subscriptions averaging $2,000 monthly, this is a one-time investment in owned tech, with optional maintenance at 15% yearly.
What if we need to hire seasonally—does the AI adapt?
Seasonal swings are core to window work, like summer storms driving demand. Our AI uses predictive modeling to ramp up sourcing 60 days ahead, pulling from databases of off-season laborers. It adjusts criteria—for example, emphasizing quick learners for urgent jobs—and auto-pauses during lulls to avoid over-hiring. Clients in similar trades cut vacancy periods by 50%, maintaining steady crews without constant restarts. We fine-tune based on your historical data, like past El Niño impacts, for proactive, not reactive, recruiting.
