EPISODE 429: Have you ever been knee-deep in a project, only to discover you’ve missed a crucial building code? It’s frustrating and costly, right?

What if you could avoid those mistakes with just a few clicks?

Meet Scott Reynolds, co-founder & CEO of UpCodes, who’s leading a revolution in construction by providing open access to building codes through an online platform.

In this episode, my co-host Nathan Wood and I sit down with Scott to discuss the critical role building codes play in construction and how the Pro Codes Act–a bill that could privatize access to codes–threatens this.

Scott explains how limited access to these codes could impact not just the construction industry but the rest of society. He also dives into how some organizations are profiting from these codes, why the Pro Codes Act could hinder innovation, how to leverage AI technology for code compliance, and more.

Want to learn how codes affect your work and what you can do to protect it from its threat?
