The summary
AI training for architects helps practice directors and studio teams use ChatGPT, Claude and other AI tools to organise briefs, draft fee proposals, prepare project communications and support bids. This is a practical half-day for up to eight people, delivered online or at your UK studio for £2,299 +VAT. You bring the design judgement; we help with the work surrounding it.
The fee was agreed months ago. The brief has moved twice. There is a tender response due on Friday and a client who would quite like “a quick update”. Architecture practices do not need another software demonstration. They need a sensible way to get the surrounding work done without quietly giving away more of the fee.
Use two fictional versions of a client brief. Ask AI to identify changed requirements, quote the source passages and list what needs clarification. Check the comparison yourself, then draft a client email setting out the questions. The result is a clearer conversation about scope. Any fee or programme decision is still yours.
Track the time it takes to prepare a checked proposal, the number of unresolved briefing questions and the effort spent turning project records into client updates. Those are useful starting points for a director watching fee recovery.
We do not present a chatbot as a route to verified planning advice, Building Regulations compliance, structural design or coordinated drawings. Technical statements need checking against authoritative sources by the responsible professional. Client drawings, site information and confidential project material need agreed permissions and approved tools. Visual concepts, if used, must be labelled as concepts.
We work with tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Microsoft Copilot, choosing what fits the task and your approved environment. We agree priorities beforehand, practise together and leave you with reusable materials. Tool subscriptions and any integration work are discussed separately.

The half-day gives your team a practical starting point. More advanced training is available when you have a clear workflow worth developing.
Go deeper on proposals, tender responses and pitch preparation for the projects you want.
Build repeatable document workflows once you have completed the introductory module or have equivalent experience.
Make your practice’s expertise easier to understand and discover through AI search.
The Claude Code pathway runs from Introduction to Claude Code to Advanced Claude Code and Building Agents in Claude Code. Take the previous module or bring equivalent experience before moving up.
10 minutes. No commitment. Tell us where your studio loses time: briefs, bids, coordination or client communications. We’ll start there.
It is a practical business AI course for architecture practices. The focus is briefs, fees, bids, project communications and practice knowledge. It is not a specialist rendering, CAD or BIM software course.
Yes. A small studio may need fee proposals and client updates first. A larger practice may prioritise bid preparation, handovers and consistent ways of using its knowledge. We agree the brief with you.
AI can help organise questions or summarise supplied material, but its output is not technical verification. Your responsible professionals must check relevant requirements and sources.
Discuss them with us first. Fictional, public or appropriately anonymised material is the best starting point. Confidential client documents and drawings need permission and an approved environment.
The half-day programme is £2,299 +VAT for up to eight people, delivered live online or in person. Takeaway materials and 30 days of follow-up are included. Tell us your location and requirements when you enquire so the full arrangements can be confirmed.
No. We start with the tools and the briefing habits you need for the agreed tasks. You practise on examples relevant to your team and learn to check the result. No coding is required for the half-day sector session.
Yes. We are based in Witney, Oxfordshire and deliver in person across the UK, or live online. We agree the location, practical arrangements and session priorities before booking.
Choose a deeper module based on the work you want to improve. Options include AI policy, winning business, GEO and the Claude Code pathway. Advanced Claude Code requires the introductory module or equivalent experience; Building Agents requires the advanced foundations.
