How to disrupt an entire industry with AI
+ Claude 3 is officially the best!
Happy Easter! 🐣
But what’s with the bunnies? The tradition of the Easter Bunny originated with the festival of Eostre, a Saxon festival celebrating the goddess of spring and fertility. This festival included the hare, which was a symbol associated with Eostre, due to the animal's high fertility.
Over time, as these pagan traditions merged with Christian celebrations of the resurrection of Jesus, the Easter Bunny evolved into a deliverer of sweets and eggs on Easter Sunday, symbolizing new life and rebirth.

AI STARTUPS
Hospitality is a $4.1T titan, encasing everything from eating out at a restaurant to booking your next vacation. This giant industry is slowly entering a new era - powered by AI.
Central to this transformation is how services are being managed, improving efficiencies and experiences for both guests and hosts.
One AI startup is integrating AI on a much deeper level - giving us a glimpse of what the industry will look like in the future.
Jurny uses AI to completely streamline the management process for property managers.
One founder's vision
Luca Zambello is the co-founder and CEO of Jurny, and an expert in AI within hospitality. After managing over 300 properties in his previous role, the pain points of property management were all too apparent to him.
The main problem? A startling lack of crossover between each aspect of management. From booking to cleaning to billing - each step of the process was separated, and crying out for integration.
Luca’s vision was to bring a comprehensive, one-stop solution to property management - bringing it into the age of AI and automation.
The result was Jurny, and the industry’s most powerful AI - named Nia.
“If one person could manage 8 properties, with Jurny, they can manage 80” - says Luca.
With Jurny, every task is brought under one roof, and hosts can automate up to 90% of their daily operations.
AI Agents that talk… to each other!
What sets Jurny apart is a completely vertically designed system. This level of integration between each aspect of management lets Jurny’s AI agents reason, communicate, and even make decisions completely autonomously.
It mimics the interaction of a dynamic real-world team - If a manager or guest has a query - the AI agents will consult each other to determine the best course of action!
It’s something that’s straight out of the realm of science fiction - but it’s happening right now.
Exceptional growth validates the business
In the last year alone, Jurny has processed over $35M of bookings and grown its customer base 5x over - an exceptional level of growth that highlights the impact AI will have in this industry.
With property management operations and software costing an estimated $1T annually, it’s clear Jurny has huge growth potential, and through partnerships with industry giants like Airbnb, Vrbo, and Expedia, Jurny is already fully automating operations for thousands of properties across the globe.
Join over 1,100 investors
Jurny’s success has attracted $12M in funding from leading venture capitalists and over 1,100 individual investors, keen to help Luca in his mission to transform the hospitality industry.
