Exploring Practical AI Solutions for Modern Hotel Operations
StayPilots is an early-stage hospitality technology initiative focused on understanding how AI can reduce daily operational friction in hotels — starting with real input from hotel owners, managers, and staff.
Early-stage research initiative • Built with hotel feedback
Our Philosophy
THE PROBLEM
Hotel teams are under increasing pressure, yet many technology solutions are built without enough real-world operational input.
Common challenges include:
Repetitive guest communication
Manual coordination across departments
Staff shortages and burnout
Disconnected systems
Tools that are difficult to use or overbuilt
Hotels don’t need more software they need better-designed tools.
OUR APPROACH
We are not launching a finished product.
StayPilots is conducting structured research with hotel operators to understand:
Which tasks genuinely slow teams down
Where AI can provide meaningful support
What existing systems do well — and where they fall short
What “simple and useful” truly means in daily hotel operations
Feedback from this research directly informs what we design and build next.
OUR PROCESS
We are not launching a finished product.
Listen
Gather insights directly from hotel operators and staff
Design
Identify high-impact, low-friction opportunities
Build
Test carefully with a small group before scaling
WHY PARTICIPATE

ABOUT STAYPILOTS
Research-First Hospitality Technology
StayPilots is a hospitality technology research initiative dedicated to understanding hotel operations before building solutions.
Our goal is to design AI tools that respect how hotels actually work — not how software companies assume they work.
We believe the most effective tools are built with the people who use them.
