AI in Roofing: What Contractors Need to Know is a free educational training developed by Cotney Consulting Group and based on more than 45 years of real-world roofing experience. This course cuts through the hype surrounding artificial intelligence and explains, in practical terms, how AI actually fits into roofing operations today.
Rather than focusing on generic technology theory, the training shows contractors where AI delivers immediate value — including estimating, project management, service, safety and QA, and production scheduling. Participants learn what AI can and cannot do, how to adopt it responsibly without disrupting their teams, and how to prepare their operations for future advancements like automation and robotics.
The program introduces a clear, phased AI adoption framework that helps roofing companies improve efficiency, reduce administrative burden, and strengthen documentation — all while keeping human expertise at the center of decision-making. This training is designed for owners, estimators, project managers, service managers, and operations leaders who want clarity, not confusion, about AI in roofing.
