Revolutionising Group Travel with AI

🎧 Welcome to another inspiring episode of the Philly Tech Connect Podcast! This week, we’re joined by Will Schmahl, a repeat founder, former AOL ad tech leader, and ex-Airbnb superhost who's now building something big—HousMthr, an AI-powered app reshaping how groups travel together.

🔹 About This Episode:
Will walks us through his journey from launching his first business at 17 to creating HousMthr—a tool that simplifies group travel logistics, from shared expenses and ferry rides to fridge inventory. Designed for real hosts managing real stays, HousMthr focuses on on-trip coordination, not just pre-trip planning.

🔸 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• How HousMthr is transforming the group travel experience through AI.

• Why most travel tech ignores what happens during your stay—and how HousMthr fills that gap.

• Real-world use cases: families, friends, coworking trips, beach house owners, and more.

• The exciting roadmap: AI-powered alerts, local recommendations, and even a marketplace for empty dinner tables or tours.

🔹 Why Listen?
If you’ve ever planned a group trip, you know the chaos. Will’s solution makes it seamless. Whether you're in travel tech, real estate, or hospitality, this episode will spark ideas on how to rethink guest experience with smart coordination.
