About This Session:

This webinar is presented in collaboration with Ichi, an AI-native platform for the building safety industry. While some examples and case studies featured in this webinar will include Ichi clients and technology, the webinar is designed as an educational experience. The goal is to explore the broader role of AI in building safety and code enforcement by highlighting real-world examples, general principles, and practical insights – using Ichi as a representative case study. Any references to specific tools or technologies are intended to illustrate concepts and do not constitute an endorsement by California Building Officials.
