My name is Michael Kilkelly. I founded ArchSmarter in 2014 to help AEC professionals get more from their tools and their time. What started as Revit productivity tips has grown into courses on Revit API development and AI workflows for architects.

I teach the Revit Add-in Academy, where architects and engineers learn to build custom Revit tools with C#, and Claude Workflows for Architects, where I show mid-career architects how to put AI to work on real project tasks like spec reviews, meeting notes, and deliverable QA.

During the day, I'm a Senior BIM Developer at Ulteig Engineering, where I lead the development of automation tools for electrical substation design. Before that, I spent seven years as an Associate at Gehry Partners in Los Angeles, working on projects like 8 Spruce Street in New York and the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi. I also worked for several design firms in the Boston area.

I received my B.Arch from Norwich University and an SMArchS in Design and Computation from MIT. I live and work in Middletown, CT.
