What to expect

Come ready to build.

CREx10 is structured as a working day — not a panel circuit. Plan for active sessions and an open lab where the speakers stay on the floor.

BRING
Your laptop

Sessions are interactive — you'll build, prompt, and connect to live tools. A laptop is required.

BRING
A real workflow

Pick one workflow from your week — IC memo, rent roll variance, lease abstract — and we'll work it live.

INCLUDED
Lunch & coffee

Full catered lunch on-site, plus morning coffee and an afternoon networking reception.

INCLUDED
Session materials

Every attendee leaves with the prompts, templates, and reference repos used during the day.
