The Real Power of Our AI Workflow Comes From People - Dina Belon, Staypineapple

from Hospitality Daily Podcast · host Josiah Mackenzie

Dina Belon, President of Staypineapple, returns for a conversation with our guest experience correspondent, Danica Smith, to share how her team built “Chat Pineapple,” an in-house AI tool that connects guest insights across systems. More important than the technology, Dina says, is the culture that empowers teams to act creatively on that information -- turning surveys, reviews, and guest histories into memorable experiences. You’ll hear what surprised her most about pre-stay guest responses, how the workflow scaled a long-standing culture of surprise and delight, and why the human element is the true driver of personalization in hospitality.See our previous episodes with Dina:How Staypineapple Enables Every Employee to Surprise and Delight - Dina Belon, StaypineappleOur Vision: Hospitality Can Be More - Dina Belon, Staypineapple Hotels"Best Employer": The Secrets Behind Our Winning Strategy for People-First Culture - Dina Belon & Mike Hirschler, Staypineapple Hotels3 Stories, 1 Mission: Our Journeys to Hospitality Leadership - Dina Belon, Mike Hirschler & Casey Barks, Staypineapple HotelsAI & Hotel Tech Bets For Our People-First Approach - Dina Belon, Staypineapple Hotels A few more resources:If you're new to Hospitality Daily, start here. You can send me a message here with questions, comments, or guest suggestionsIf you want to get my summary and actionable insights from each episode delivered to your inbox each day, subscribe here for free.Follow Hospitality Daily and join the conversation on YouTube, LinkedIn, and Instagram.If you want to advertise on Hospitality Daily, here are the ways we can work together.If you found this episode interesting or helpful, send it to someone on your team so you can turn the ideas into action and benefit your business and the people you serve!Music for this show is produced by Clay Bassford of Bespoke Sound: Music Identity Design for Hospitality Brands
