Everything Arc 1 partners need to promote their episode on their own: quotes, drafts, and graphics.
What this is
Your partnership for the series includes a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to reuse your own segments, clips, and transcript excerpts for your own marketing, sales, investor relations, and internal comms, across any channel. This page is everything you need to post on your own without waiting on us: your episode dates, your pull-quote, ready-to-post LinkedIn drafts, and the series graphics.
Producer retains sole editorial discretion over the cut. Nothing on this page requires our review to post, it's built from segments already cleared for you.
One ask: post on your episode's Thursday and tag Evan Troxel and TRXL Podcast.
Once your episode is live we'll send a timestamped link straight to your segment, so you don't have to hunt for it.

AVAIL — Randall Stevens, CEO & Founder
“How much time does that eat? Is it ninety percent or fifty percent? I'll bet it's approaching fifty percent at least.”
“You know I'm dealing with a hundred and eighty different applications inside this firm, don't you?”
Randall Stevens
“The software is maybe only 10% of the actual cost. The [real] cost is in training, getting people to stop what they're doing for a minute, and learn that there's something new.”
“No matter how well something has been designed, if you don't use it very often, you're basically frustrated every time you come back to it because you've forgotten how it works.”
“The world is okay with slop because it's what they have outside. It helps design in that slop is now easily obtainable, and you better do a lot better than slop.”
“You're limiting your ability to fully understand the solution space by not leveraging tools that are going to fail a billion times faster than you will. And the failure is the data set that gives you the right path forward.”
“How are you going to convince a client that you're going to build their 21st hospital better than the previous 20 hospitals you've built, if you don't have access to the data of those previous 20 hospitals?”
Dimitrie Stefanescu
“Revit is not being killed per se, but Revit is, in a sense, being surrounded.”
“We make the systems interoperate whether they were designed to interoperate or not.”
Dimitrie Stefanescu

“You reconcile with yourself the fact that now your job is no longer to design structures, it's to export Excel files. I think this is something that people should stand up against.”

Skema — Marty Rozmanith, CTO & Co-Founder
“There's a lot of people out there who say, well, our BIM's not good enough, we really need to clean up our data so we're ready for AI. The AI doesn't care. Your data is whatever your data is.”
Marty Rozmanith
“I hate the word interoperability. Everybody, whenever they try to move data from one system to another, gets about seventy percent of the data, and then they don't quite know where the other thirty percent is.”
Marty Rozmanith
“You have to value your own time first in order to want to save it.”
“You can't rely on billing for the time it takes you anymore. You have to be an outcome-based business that delivers an outcome [so] that you can charge for the value of that outcome.”
“I think the greatest gainers will be the small firms, honestly.”

Graphisoft — Holger Kreienbrink, Director Product Intelligence & Partnerships
“We don't want people to be afraid that the moment they stop paying, they cannot access the data anymore. Data belongs to the people, or to the clients. It's their data. We don't want to have it.”
Holger Kreienbrink
“Token spending will be huge if we are not cautious with that. If you just use it, it will be a second license cost, and it can be even more expensive than the license cost if you overuse it.”
Holger Kreienbrink
“You need to be aware that for a time, nothing is as it was before, and productivity will go down. People will complain.”
“I would never take my big architecture project, feed 100 drawings into one of the big chatbots and hope that it finds all the problems. It just doesn't work.”
Jesper Wallgren
“The way the industry solves this space in between free-form modeling and the BIM tools is workarounds, brute force, and Excel sheets.”
“The people that are learning Finch and adopting it the fastest are the people that play around with it during evenings, and then bring it into the office again. And of course, that is a tall order.”
“There's pockets of individuals that you see doing these things, but it never transfers to become the way that we want the entire organization to work as a baseline.”
Matt Wash
“Bimbeats is not a coach. It's not going to change the way you work, but it is a superpower for whoever the coach is within the practice.”
Ariel Cooke-Zamora
“I wouldn't say that what we're seeing [with new tools] is making anyone go home any earlier.”
“Deadlines are real. If you get told, ‘If you learn this tool, you're going to be doing it faster,’ you're probably going to default to the way that you know works.”
“I don't think the future is about replacing that with something that has to be one tool. I think it's about making those workflows more connected and reducing the fragmentation and the frictional cost of having multiple tools.”
Carl Christensen
“I don't think anybody benefits [from data staying stuck in a platform]. It doesn't help customers that data or information is stuck in tools or files. I think the value comes from keeping information connected and reusable across workflows and the project life cycle.”
Carl Christensen
“People come from the outside and marvel at how slow things are, and think ‘People must be slow.’ But they're not. They're working really hard, and there are really good reasons why this is complex.”
