395 :: AI-Driven Construction with Jessica Herrala of Buildots

In episode 395 of The Construction Leadership Podcast, Jessica Herrala of Buildots joins the show to discuss how artificial intelligence (AI) is improving the construction process through better communication and progress tracking.  Jessica is a strategic thinking veteran of some of the most well-known brands in construction: Lend Lease, Skansa, Walsh, and Clayco. Jessica and I talk about the insights she's earned throughout her career within those large firms and why she joined Buildots to help them build better—from the other side of the desk.  Buildots takes the construction design and schedule and then incorporates real-time videos through the use of a GoPro 360 mounted on hardhats. Add on a layer of AI to sync it all up and Buildots promises to construct "one central platform connecting all aspects, connecting you straight to reality . . . it's a comprehensive and automatically consolidated dashboard with all sites' data means you see exactly what's happening and what's not."     This episode is brought to you by The Simple Sales Pipeline® —the most efficient way to organize and value any construction sales rep's roster of customers and prospects in under 30 minutes once every 30 days. *** If you enjoyed this podcast, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
