Build a working prototype of your AI-powered application in Boston, June 9-11

Are you building a web application with Autodesk Platform Services and looking for technical support on your project? The APS accelerators might be just the right fit for you! 

What are APS Developer Accelerators?  

Autodesk Platform Services (APS) accelerators are free, hands-on coding events designed for software developers building applications with APS APIs. 

Think of it as a focused, in-person working session: you’ll spend 3 days actively coding your web application, with direct access to APS engineers who are there to answer questions, troubleshoot issues, and help you create a working proof of concept by the end of the event. 

Each accelerator is intentionally small—up to 30 participants—to ensure plenty of one-on-one support. Space is limited, so we recommend submitting your application early.

Use case inspiration 

This Boston accelerator will focus on building web applications that combine Autodesk Platform Services (APS) with AI. 

Here's a few workflow ideas: 

• Using natural language to interact with 2D or 3D designs, for example asking questions or navigating a model through plain English 
• Running automated compliance checks against design standards, with AI helping interpret and explain the results 
• Using AI to assist with coding and debugging, helping you move faster during development 
• Using natural-language interface to interact with Autodesk Construction Cloud, such as viewing project users, assigning permissions, or retrieving project data through Admin APIs 

There are just a few examples. Bring your unique ideas, and we’ll provide the tools, APIs, and support to bring them to life!
