In this electrifying episode of The Good Builder Podcast, Az sits down with Mark Deacon, former architect turned tech entrepreneur, to unpack one of the most remarkable journeys in Australian construction-tech.

From bootstrapping in a garage with no walls (yes, really) to building one of Australia’s fastest-growing companies, Mark shares how his relentless focus on innovation led to the creation of game-changing platforms like Superdraft, Viz360, and now Canibuild — an AI-powered tool used by 80% of Australia’s top builders.

They cover:

• How Canibuild helps builders go from inquiry to quote in minutes
• What really separates top builders from the rest
• The real reason digital tools are your new power tools
• Why AI isn’t just hype — and how to adopt it the right way
• What every builder needs to know about robotics, approvals, and the future of construction
• The biggest cultural lesson Mark learned by firing his top performer

Mark’s perspective blends deep industry knowledge with cutting-edge tech smarts — and he delivers it with humility, clarity, and serious value for builders at any stage.

🔥 Bonus: Mark reveals how Canibuild is now powering council approvals in LA… and what’s coming next for Aussie builders.
