Partner-led webinar
Cut through the AI noise with this builder checklist
AI advice is everywhere right now, but most of it is generic and doesn’t hold up on a job site. Join APB’s Russ Stephens and Buildertrend VP of product AI, Ruhaab Markas, for a construction-specific look at AI in action – and walk away with a builder-tested checklist you can use on any AI tool before you spend a dollar or an hour on it.
What you can expect from this webinar:
The business test
Learn the same test Russ uses to evaluate any new technology before it enters a building company, so you can tell what’s worth your time and what isn’t.
Construction-specific AI
See why most AI marketed to builders is general-purpose that doesn’t understand job history or financials, and what it looks like when AI is actually built for construction.
Expert insights
Russ and Ruhaab answered builder questions live about all things AI in construction.
