Tired of hearing about AI like it’s magic—while you’re still short-staffed and behind schedule? Join Justin Wetherby, Senior Solution Engineer at BuildOps, as they break down what real AI looks like on the jobsite—and how smart contractors are actually using it to save time, cut steps, and boost productivity without hiring more people or overhauling their systems. 

You’ll learn: 

  • How to spot the difference between “homework” AI and time-saving tools 
  • 5 clear signs of real-world AI value in the trades 
  • Simple ways to get started by role—no big project required 
  • What good AI feels like for dispatchers, techs, managers, and execs 

If AI isn’t saving your team time, it’s not working. Join us to see how it can.
