Architects didn’t train for years to spend their days writing meeting minutes, chasing emails, or managing RFIs and submittals. Yet for many practices, manual admin work is quietly consuming hours every week — impacting profitability, focus, and job satisfaction.  

In this webinar, discover how leading architecture firms are using AI to eliminate low-value manual work and reclaim time for high-impact activities like design leadership, client relationships, and strategic decision-making.  

Cogram is an AI platform built specifically for architects, automating everyday workflows such as meeting minutes, email management, RFIs, and submittals — without changing how teams work. Learn where AI is delivering real value today (not hype), what workflows are best suited for automation, and how firms are deploying AI safely and effectively across live projects.  

Join us for a practical, no-nonsense session on how AI can help your practice work smarter, not longer. 

Learning Objectives 
At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to: 

  • Identify common administrative workflows in architectural practice that are best suited for AI-driven automation.  
  • Evaluate the impact of automating meeting minutes, email management, and RFIs/submittals on project efficiency and staff utilization. 
  • Analyze current AI capabilities in architectural practice and anticipate how ongoing AI developments are likely to shape project delivery, roles, and workflows across the industry. 
  • Apply a framework for safety introducing AI tools into live projects while maintaining quality, accountability, and professional standards.
