Join 150+ automotive businesses with streamlined operations
The "Fragmented Data" Problem
Inventory blind spots on high-demand tire sizes like 225/65R17 leading to emergency reorders from distributors during peak alignment season
Service bay scheduling conflicts causing customer walkouts and lost revenue
Manual tracking of tire tread depth and wear patterns via calipers resulting in premature replacements and increased warranty claims under manufacturer programs
Disconnected POS and supplier data creating billing errors on bulk tire orders
Delayed insights into seasonal demand fluctuations, such as surges in all-season or winter tire sales during fall transitions, hampering cash flow for bulk purchases
Siloed customer vehicle history data, including tire rotation logs and mileage records, leading to inconsistent upselling of alignment and maintenance packages

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency: The Impact on Your Tire Shop
Real-Time Inventory Visibility
Real-Time Inventory Visibility: Never fly blind on stock levels again. Our dashboards track tire SKUs across suppliers like Michelin and Bridgestone, predicting shortages with 95% accuracy based on historical sales data from POS integrations. This cuts emergency orders by 50%, saving you thousands in rush shipping fees during high-demand periods like spring alignments for SUV fleets.
Optimized Service Scheduling
Optimized Service Scheduling: Align tire installations, rotations, and balance services with bay availability and technician skills in real time via integrated calendars. Shops report a 35% reduction in downtime within the first quarter, turning potential walkouts into booked appointments and increasing daily revenue by up to $2,000 per bay through efficient throughput.
Actionable Revenue Insights
Actionable Revenue Insights: Drill into KPIs like average ticket value for tire services, including alignments and pressure checks, and upsell opportunities for premium treads. With clear data visibility, decision-makers spot trends—like rising demand for low-rolling-resistance eco-friendly tires—early, driving a 28% uplift in cross-sells without guesswork over a six-month period.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's dashboard, we were constantly short on popular sizes like 215/60R16 during busy weekends for oil changes and alignments, leading to frustrated customers driving away empty-handed. Now, with real-time alerts tied to our inventory feed from suppliers, we've cut stockouts by 60% and our repeat business is up—last quarter alone, that added $15K to our bottom line from consistent tire sales."
Mike Rivera
Owner, Riverside Tire & Auto Pros in Sacramento, CA
"Integrating our legacy POS with the new dashboard took just two weeks, and it's transformed how we handle tire rotations, balances, and alignments. No more double-booking bays for four-wheel alignments; our efficiency jumped 25% in the first month, and we've hired one less temp during peak season because the system flags overloads instantly via technician load balancing."
Sarah Chen
Operations Manager, Apex Auto Tires & Service Center in Denver, CO
"We used to sift through emails and spreadsheets for bulk orders from Goodyear and Continental, which ate hours daily during inventory audits. This custom setup pulls everything into one view with automated EDI feeds, and our error rate on invoices for tire shipments dropped from 12% to under 2% in three months. It's like having an extra mechanic focused on the numbers, freeing us for more roadside assistance calls."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this dashboard integrate with my existing tire shop software?
We start by mapping your current setup—whether it's Shop-Ware, TireMaster, or a custom POS—and build secure, two-way API integrations that pull in real-time data like stock levels and service logs. This creates a unified view without disrupting operations. For instance, if you're using Mitchell1 for diagnostics, we sync tire wear data directly into the dashboard. The process typically takes 2-4 weeks, with minimal downtime, and includes full testing to ensure accuracy. Unlike plug-and-play tools, our custom approach handles unique workflows, like multi-vendor tire sourcing, preventing data silos that plague 70% of shops per TIA reports.
What specific KPIs can I track for my tire shop?
Our dashboards are tailored to tire-specific metrics that drive results, such as inventory turnover rate (aim for 4-6x annually in automotive benchmarks), average tire installation time per bay, and customer retention from maintenance reminders. You can visualize upsell success rates for packages like alignments with new tires, targeting a 25% conversion lift. We also include supplier reliability scores to flag delays in deliveries, which affect 40% of shops during peaks. Everything is customizable—short punchy dials for daily checks, detailed charts for monthly reviews—empowering data-driven tweaks that boost efficiency without overwhelming your team.
How much time does implementation take, and what's the ROI?
Implementation unfolds in phases: discovery (1 week), build (2-3 weeks), and launch with training (1 week), totaling 4-5 weeks for most tire shops. ROI kicks in fast—clients see 30-50% reductions in manual tracking time within the first month, translating to $5K-$10K annual savings on labor alone, based on our tracked outcomes. For a mid-sized shop with 5 bays, this means recouping costs in 6 months through fewer stockouts and higher throughput. We back this with benchmarks: industry data shows unified systems cut errors by 40%, directly padding margins on high-volume tire services.
Is the dashboard accessible on mobile for shop owners on the go?
Absolutely—our custom UIs are fully responsive, optimized for tablets and phones so you can check tire stock or bay status from a job site or supplier meeting. Imagine getting a push notification for a low inventory alert mid-delivery run, allowing instant reorders. Built with enterprise-grade frameworks, it handles high-traffic scenarios like end-of-day rushes without lag. We've designed it for automotive realities: quick glances at KPIs like daily tire installs, with drill-downs for deeper insights. Security is baked in, with encrypted access to protect sensitive customer data, aligning with industry standards.
Can this scale if my tire shop expands to multiple locations?
Yes, scalability is core to our architecture. We design dashboards to aggregate data across locations—think centralized views of tire inventory from your main warehouse and satellite shops, with location-specific filters for local demand like urban vs. rural tire types. As you grow, we add modules for fleet tracking or regional supplier comparisons without rebuilding. Clients expanding from one to three sites report seamless transitions, maintaining 99% uptime. This future-proofs your investment, avoiding the costly overhauls that hit 60% of growing automotive businesses, per our experience.
What if we need custom features for tire recycling or eco-compliance?
We specialize in bespoke additions, like tracking recycled tire volumes for sustainability reporting or compliance with EPA guidelines on waste disposal. For example, integrate sensors from your recycling bins to monitor fill rates and automate vendor pickups, reducing manual logs that eat 10 hours weekly. Our AIQ Labs team has built similar features for green-focused shops, ensuring dashboards flag non-compliant practices early. This not only meets regulations but positions your business as eco-leader, appealing to 55% of customers who prefer sustainable tire services, according to recent surveys.
