From Non-Technical CEO to Agentic Ecosystem
The honest version of a 12-month transformation — what it actually takes for an operator to build with AI instead of waiting on a vendor.
Speaking & Media
Alex Zemianek speaks on AI, hospitality & operator-led growth
Available for keynotes, panels, podcasts, executive roundtables, and legislative forums. The throughline is always the same: what actually works when you’re the one running the operation.
Topics
What I speak on
AI in Hospitality
What operators actually need versus what vendors sell — cutting through the demos to the workflows that move the number.
The Shift from Human Traffic to AI Agents
AEO, GEO, and the future of discovery when the visitor booking your property is an AI agent, not a person on a search page.
Operator-Led Product Development
Building technology from inside the business — why the best hospitality products come from people who run the operation.
STR Advocacy & Legislation
The regulatory landscape for short-term rentals and what operators can actually do about it at the state and local level.
