Digs co-founders Ryan Fink (CEO) and Ty Frackiewicz (CPO) recently joined Mike Rowe on The Way I Heard It to discuss how AI is transforming home building.

In the episode, titled “Can AI Build My House?”, Ryan and Ty dig into everyday pain points builders face, from endless decisions and fragmented communication to the difficulty of keeping critical information organized across teams. Mike calls Digs “transformational,” highlighting how the platform gives homeowners a clear, organized view of their home while helping builders streamline workflows and reduce costly mistakes.

“If you’re a builder, Digs helps you manage collaboration, selections, takeoffs, and placement of materials efficiently. For homeowners, it turns all the unorganized build documents into a 3D digital twin of your home, down to paint colors, tile, and appliances.” – Ryan Fink

Beyond Digs, the conversation explores some of the biggest questions facing the construction industry today, including the future of AI in the trades, workforce development, job security, and why building a home remains one of the most stressful experiences people go through. Mike also touches on the idea of a “user manual for your house”—a topic that resonates with anyone who’s ever wondered what’s behind the walls or under the floors.



As Mike puts it:

“Where’s my magical guide to every single thing behind the wall or under the floor? Digs is kind of like that. It could be transformational for anyone getting a home built.”

Whether you’re a builder, homeowner, or simply curious about how AI is reshaping construction and the trades, this episode delivers insight, humor, and plenty of thought-provoking moments.
