In this episode, hosts Steve Carran chat with Will Gilbert, Co-Founder of Bodhi, live from the trade show floor at The Hospitality Show in Denver, Colorado.

Will shares the original “aha moment” behind creating Bodhi — a platform born from 25+ years of systems integration and a real-world need for hotels and mixed-use properties to manage smart devices under one pane of glass. What began as one-off software has evolved into a global solution trusted by integrators, manufacturers, resorts, and hotels worldwide.

In this episode, we cover:

• How a single high-end property inspired the creation of Bodhi
• Why being manufacturer agnostic is Bodhi’s biggest competitive advantage
• The tech behind predicting and preventing guest experience issues
• How BodhiGPT, GuestGPT, and their AI Super-Agent enhance operations and 5-star reviews
• Expansion into the multifamily & residential market

From AI-powered automation to quarter-million data messages per second, Bodhi is transforming how properties manage systems, respond to guest needs, and create unforgettable stays.

Whether you're running luxury hotels, select-service properties, or multifamily communities — this episode is packed with insight into the future of smart operations.
