withQ

Before investing in withQ, they called our clients behind our back. We're glad they did. One of our investors told us the biggest reason they wrote the check wasn't our technology. It was trust. They spoke directly with our clients and heard about the results, reliability, and reputation we've built by delivering in real hospitality environments. Websites can be copied. Features can be replicated. Demos can be polished. Trust has to be earned. Today, we serve ownership groups, REITs, ski resorts, and independent hotels. Our team comes from Marriott, Disney Parks and Resorts, hospitality operations, voice AI research, and infrastructure engineering. We understand the industry because we've worked in it. We know what happens when a guest is waiting, a reservation is on the line, or a hotel team is overwhelmed. We've lived it. We're not vibe coding our way into hospitality. We're operators, researchers, and engineers building production-grade AI for an industry we know and care deeply about. And we're not a distributed company. Our entire team is in San Francisco, in one room, building together every day. That experience, combined with the trust of our clients, is our strongest moat. And we're only getting started.

Some icons never sleep. Neither do we. 🌉 Proud to call San Francisco home. Built in San Francisco, for hospitality everywhere. withQ is helping hotels answer every call, support every guest, and stay on every hour. #hospitality #hoteltech #AIforHotels #SanFrancisco #withQ

Every missed group inquiry is lost revenue. A wedding. A 40 room block. A corporate retreat. Too many of these opportunities sit in inboxes, go to voicemail, or arrive after hours while guests book somewhere else. Today we're launching the withQ AI Sales Coordinator. An always on sales teammate built for groups, weddings, room blocks, and event sales. It responds instantly across every guest channel, qualifies dates, headcount, budget, and event requirements, checks room, venue, and dining availability, then moves the opportunity to the next booked action, whether that's a site visit, sales call, or proposal. Your sales team receives a complete conversation summary, ready to take it from there. Not a lead router. An AI Sales Coordinator that keeps high value demand moving from first conversation to booked revenue. Full announcement in the comments. #Hospitality #HotelTech #GroupSales #EventSales #AI

I spent several years at Disney Parks & Resorts before founding withQ. I thought I understood how hotels made decisions. Then I started selling software to them. Here's the biggest lesson I've learned: hotels rarely buy technology because of the technology. They buy it because of the problem they're trying to solve today. I've walked into meetings expecting to talk about AI, only to realize the conversation was really about labor shortages. Or missed revenue. Or guest satisfaction scores. Or an ownership group trying to improve NOI. Or a front desk team drowning in a phone that never stops ringing. Same product. Completely different reasons for buying it. Early on, I spent too much time explaining what our platform could do. Now I spend far more time understanding what's keeping that team up at night. Every hotel is different. Every ownership group has different priorities. Every GM is measured differently. Every IT team has different constraints. The technology matters. Understanding the business matters more. My years at Disney taught me how great hotels operate. Building withQ has taught me how hotels actually make decisions. Walt Disney famously obsessed over the guest experience. Building for hospitality means obsessing over the people behind that guest experience.

People often ask what it's like building a startup. The truth is, it looks a lot like this. A small team solving impossible problems, celebrating the wins, learning from the losses, and somehow still finding time to laugh together. We didn't start by trying to build a company serving 1,000+ hotels. We started by trying to get one hotel to believe in an idea. We got one. Then 10. Then 100. Today, withQ helps power guest experiences across more than 1,000 hotels, resorts, ski destinations, and attractions. Back then, the vision was simple: build an AI voice agent that could answer the phone and help hotels capture more bookings. But once we got inside hotel operations, we realized the opportunity was much bigger. Reservations buried in calls. Front desks juggling requests. Housekeeping, concierge, dining, maintenance. Every department was full of repetitive work that pulled great people away from what they do best: taking care of guests. So we kept building. What started as one AI agent has become an AI workforce that helps hospitality teams capture bookings, coordinate operations, route requests, and support guests at every stage of the journey. But what I'm most proud of is this team. Their obsession with our customers, their willingness to move fast, and their ability to turn ambitious ideas into products our customers rely on every day is what got us here. We're still at the beginning. The AI workforce for hospitality is just getting started.

Thank you, HITEC 2026. Over the past few days in San Antonio, we had the opportunity to meet with hotel operators, ownership groups, and hospitality technology leaders from across the industry. One theme was clear: hospitality teams are looking for practical AI that delivers real operational value today. At withQ, we’re building the AI workforce for hospitality: AI agents that answer calls, capture bookings, assist guests, coordinate operations, and connect with the systems teams already use. We’re grateful to everyone who stopped by Booth 3413, met with our team, and shared how they’re thinking about the future of hospitality operations. The future of hospitality operations is already here. #HITEC2026 #HospitalityTech #AI #HospitalityOperations #withQ
