Granite City Sessions: Smart Building AI
A building is a set of systems: doors, rooms, network, displays, sensors. AI is starting to connect them so a space can run itself. Kyle from Granite City Workspaces and FollowThrough Works shows the real systems already running at Granite City and how the same approach applies to your own space.
You'll see what is running today, how the pieces connect, and where AI does the work that used to take a person.
What you'll learn
How a space can be automated end to end, from access and rooms to network and displays
What is already running at Granite City, and what it took to get there
Where AI adds value in a smart building, and where simple automation is enough
How to start on your own office, venue, or property without a big upfront project
Who it's for
Office and property managers, coworking and venue operators, business owners with a physical space, and anyone curious how smart building technology and AI fit together.
