This course explores how robotics, AI, and computational design are transforming architectural practice and construction workflows. Drawing on research from Princeton’s Adel Research Group (ARG) and ETH Zurich, participants will examine multi-robot assembly, AI-driven material optimization, and human–robot collaboration in off-site prefabrication. Case studies—including the DFAB House—reveal how robotic fabrication increases precision and productivity, improves worker safety, and supports lower carbon and resilient building systems.

Rilla is the leading conversational intelligence platform for home builders. Sales reps record their conversations with prospects using the Rilla app, and we use AI to transcribe and analyze the conversation for coachable moments — helping builders coach 100x more and increase their sales. Builders using Rilla are seeing +45% increases in sales with less leads and less reps.

Builders who work with Rilla agree with us that sales is a sport, and the best teams win with data.

In an effort to help builders overcome the challenges of this slower market, we analyzed several thousand sales conversations with Rilla to find what top sales reps are doing differently, and how managers can take these tactics and build a championship-winning system, and put up huge numbers in this recession.

This On Demand CEU is a recorded presentation from a previously live webinar event. Artificial intelligence is moving beyond isolated tools and generative outputs. The next phase is agentic: systems that reason across data, coordinate work, and act alongside human teams. This transformation will be both beneficial and disruptive. Productivity will increase. Many new roles will emerge. Expectations will change.

For architecture and engineering firms, this shift reshapes the entire project lifecycle: planning, staffing, forecasting, design coordination, risk detection, and delivery. AI is becoming the connective layer across disciplines, while robotics and new delivery technologies close long-standing gaps between design and construction.

In this session, we take a practical, wide-angle view of what an AI-enabled, agentic A&E firm could look like. We will discuss specific products, real-world applications, and emerging platforms, not to promote tools, but to ground the conversation in practical reality. The focus is on how AI reshapes workflows, roles, decision-making, and firm structure and how to prepare intentionally.

Join BUILDER for a conversation on how one of the nation’s top builders evaluates and executes product conversions—with practical guidance you can use on your next switch. Supply chain disruptions, evolving buyer preferences, and emerging technologies have made product conversions a critical part of staying competitive. But making the switch can be fraught with risk. In this Session, we'll explore what it takes to execute a seamless product conversion—from early evaluation to labor alignment and long-term value creation.

This On Demand CEU is a recorded presentation from a previously live webinar event. Developing the next generation of leaders is essential for every architecture firm's long-term success and sustainability, whether you're a solo practitioner or amongst the largest firms in the world. Leadership development is not just about succession—it's a critical investment in building firm value, motivating employees, increasing retention, and ensuring profitability. Firms that embed leadership training into their culture earn the trust and loyalty of their employees and clients while positioning themselves as industry leaders.

This webinar provides practical, scalable strategies to create a leadership pipeline tailored to firms of all sizes. Building on the principles of succession planning, this session demonstrates how leadership development drives innovation, strengthens business resilience, and secures your firm’s future.

In this paper we hear from the technology adopters. Developers who have streamlined their operations and found the roadmap to better builder/developer relationships and better connections with prospective home buyers.

This paper lays out a proven sales process for building pros, regardless of company size or location. Learn the starting point to any good sale, qualifying or disqualifying leads and the steps to getting the final signature.

Focusing on the future, GE has worked for two decades to advance green building initiatives. Hear what they are working on now and what they offer to help pros advance sustainable building practices.

In this panel discussion you will hear from multifamily operations specialists on the benefits and challenges of incorporating technology through the life cycle of multifamily apartments, from construction and leasing to amenities and value-add rehabs.
