The online seminar co-hosted by LIFEFUND and Speee will begin on Monday, July 6, at 18:00.

LIFEFUND Co., Ltd. (Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture; CEO: Takuma Shito) and Speee Inc. (Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo) will jointly host an online seminar titled "Frontlines of 'Practical AI' for the Construction and Renovation Industry" on Monday, July 6, 2026, starting at 18:00.

Amid ongoing declines in new housing starts, many business owners express interest in AI but face challenges such as "not knowing where to start" or "implementing tools that staff don’t use." This seminar will feature real-world examples of how AI has streamlined operations—from estimates and orders to contracts, cost management, and dashboards—explained by active homebuilders and leaders driving digital transformation in the renovation industry.

The 'AI Divide' Facing Contractors and Renovation Companies

While interest in AI tools continues to grow, the gap between companies that have successfully integrated AI into daily operations and those that tried but failed to sustain usage is widening annually. Generic AI explanations often fail to align with industry-specific workflows (e.g., customer follow-up, estimating, site management), creating strong demand for concrete examples of how AI can be applied within their own operations.

This seminar will present real-life AI implementation cases currently operating in construction, renovation, and exterior work sites, shared from the perspective of field practitioners so attendees can directly apply insights to their own businesses.

◼️ Speaker Introduction

Takuma Shito, leading AI adoption across the construction industry, and Kenta Minowa, driving AI innovation in renovation and exterior painting, will discuss "Practice Meets AI."

Seminar Agenda (Planned)

Theme ①: Automating Customer Follow-up with AI

How to systematize follow-up tasks—from inquiry to contract—using AI. Real prompts, workflows, and tool configurations will be introduced.

Theme ②: Boosting Conversion Rates with AI-Powered Color Simulation

Practical examples of integrating AI into exterior and interior color proposals to simultaneously improve negotiation speed and proposal quality.

Theme ③: One-Click Cost Estimation

Revealing a system that integrates the entire workflow—from estimates and orders to cost management—using AI and dashboards, drastically reducing labor for estimators.

Who Should Attend

- Business owners in construction and renovation interested in AI but unsure how to apply it to their operations - Contractors and renovation company executives - Field staff seeking to streamline follow-up, estimating, and cost calculation tasks - Those who have introduced AI tools but failed to achieve adoption - Professionals in architecture, exterior work, and design firms aiming to drive DX initiatives
