About this Event
BuildDay is a hands-on, hackathon-style sprint focused on the construction and built environment industry. In one day, you’ll team up with architects, engineers, contractors, and operators to turn real workflow problems into working apps.
No coding experience needed.
We use AI tools to “vibe code” together, building simple, practical tools that solve real issues across design, construction, and operations. By the end of the day, you’ll walk away with something you can actually use.
It’s for people who are tired of:
- Repetitive manual tasks
- Broken workflows between teams
- Tools that don’t fit how construction actually works
You bring the problem, something that wastes time in your day-to-day.
We bring the structure, the tools, and the support.
Your team builds the solution.
While the focus is on construction, architecture, and engineering, anyone working with real-world operations and messy workflows will find this valuable.
