Nexus '26 Recap | HomeSource User Conference

Nexus '26 Recap

Held this past April at the Walt Disney World Swan Reserve in Orlando.

Where retail experience met AI.

Four days. Every department. One platform. Thank you to the retailers, operators, and teams who joined us in Orlando for the very first Nexus, and for the keynote that put HomeSource AI to work across the operation.

Nexus returns in '27.

The Recap

Relive four days in Orlando.

The keynote, the HomeSource AI reveal, the department sessions, and the Thursday evening event. The whole week in a few minutes.

What Happened

The week HomeSource met AI.

Retailers don't need another report. They need the hours those reports eat given back. Nexus '26 opened on that note with HomeSource AI: the keynote unveiled AI Workers, the first agentic AI built for independent, large-ticket retailers, alongside a set of AI tools that went live in the system the same day.

Every department had its own track: sales, warehouse, accounting, and back office. Each one led by the people who build the software. Add a full day of one-on-one support sessions and a private evening event under the Orlando sky, and you have a week retailers told us they wished they'd brought more of their team to.

That's the bar for next time.

Moments

Snapshots from the week.

"I was concerned at first about stepping away for three or four days to come. It's the best thing I could have done. We took a lot of takeaways and learned a lot of information. I wouldn't hesitate to come back."

Alisa Rode, All South

Thank You

Four days like this don't happen alone.

To every retailer who closed up shop, packed a bag, and brought the team to Orlando, it was good to have you. You're the reason any of this is worth doing.

The week came together because of the HomeSource crew who built the sessions, ran the support tables, and stayed late to answer one more question. And the staff at the Walt Disney World Swan Reserve looked after our people from check-in to checkout, quietly keeping four busy days on time.

We're grateful to all of you. See you for the next one.
