Built for Builders, Designed for Tradies

buildtik is an industry-first, Australia-wide, construction micro-learning video platform built for Builders or Developers & designed for on-site Trade Contractors.

Simply search the digital library of animated & interactive short content construction videos (under 3 minutes each) to either watch the video or send it by MMS to your tradie. The engaging videos explain the ‘how’ a task is done.

Whilst this cutting-edge tool has an L & D focus, it’s been created to help the builder & tradie understand the formal detail that really matters & avoid the most common and critical defects in the building industry………….with the added bonus of site safety videos.

Construction has
become more complex

Building has become way more complex than the good old days!

  • Tiny text-font crammed on the front cover of the site plans
  • Detail that’s important but hidden?
  • Sheer Volume of Compliance Documents
 
  • Relying on tradies that have never read the Australian Standard, Installation Guides, or Defect Tolerances that apply to their trade due to having to pay-for-access or text heavy content. 
 

But what if there was a better way?

Created by a Builder, Defect Expert, & Leaky Building Syndrome Consultant, buildtik has extracted the critical detail from the NCC, Australian Standards, The Guide to Standards & Tolerances, & Manufacturer Installation Guides, to produce a library of short content videos. The video shorts are proven to be the best way to learn. The video shorts are relevant to the defects that really matter during construction, and especially the years after handover.

Learning In The Moment & On the Job-site

Simply by searching the library, the builder can WATCH NOW or SEND MMS (immediately or a future scheduled time).

  • Straight to the tradies mobile phone.
  • One tap touch-point, no passwords or logins,
  • No MMS or LMS pay-per-view charges, 
  • Tradie can select, listen, and read the captions in their own native language.
 

Research shows over half of the workers in the Australian construction industry were born overseas, & over the last decade there has been a 56% increase in construction workers speaking a language other than English.

Setting the Benchmark for Industry Learning

Inclusive to all. Bite-Sized Multi-Lingual Videos that combine a Narrator with Illustration, Animation & Burnt-In Captions. 

Short Videos are the benchmark of communication, especially in a world of shorter attention spans, information overload, and cultural diversity.

Viewers retain 95% of a message when watching on video, compared to only 10% when reading text.

….and information retention from micro-learning video content is 6-8 times higher compared to reading.

buildik often explains the typical industry wrong way, to better understand the right way.

Defects Cost the Industry Billions Annually

Get pro-active, mitigate risk, take-control, & improve performance and productivity with buildtik video shorts.

A focus on Preventing Water Defects

Quality Assurance you can count on well after site handover. Preventing just one defect at one site per year by using buildtik will cover your annual subscription cost.

Safety "How To" videos

Building sites are dangerous. Whilst SWMS provide the backbone to on-site safety, it is assumed that tradies know what they are doing. The buildtik videos remove any guesswork and emphasize the builder’s commitment to safety. Look out for new content as we gradually build the buildtik safety module.

Micro-Learning Winning Hand

When it comes to learning, short and concise video content increases focus and encourages long term information and retention by 80%.

The Netflix of general construction installation videos right at your fingertips! 

Enter the name and mobile phone number into the Trade Contractor Listing and with 1-click the video link will appear on the tradies mobile phone. It’s that simple!
