Jetbuilt has launched Recommend, a new AI-powered feature inside its Jetbot engine that is designed to speed up AV system design. According to AVNation, users can describe a project or room type and receive equipment suggestions, system configurations, and even a complete bill of materials within the Jetbuilt platform.

The most important takeaway is that this is not AI layered onto a disconnected experiment. Jetbuilt is tying the feature directly to design, pricing, and project workflows. That makes the announcement relevant to integrators because it positions AI-assisted configuration and BOM generation as part of the day-to-day business process rather than a standalone novelty.

AVNation reports that Recommend can learn from a company’s previous projects and preferred brands, helping teams stay aligned with established standards while reducing manual setup time. That approach could be especially useful for firms trying to scale design output without adding the same amount of engineering labor for every new opportunity.

Jetbuilt’s framing also points to a larger trend in the AV market: AI is increasingly being used to compress early-stage design work, reduce repetitive decisions, and create more consistent project starting points. For integrators, the long-term value may come less from replacing engineers and more from allowing engineering teams to focus on exceptions, refinements, and client-specific complexity.

What This Means for AV Integrators

For AV integrators, AI-guided recommendation tools can shorten proposal cycles, speed up BOM creation, and support more consistent system standards across the business. That can improve win rates and margin protection while creating room for new advisory revenue around faster concepting, design validation, and scalable pre-sales services.
