Generative AI for Driftwood

AllCode Solutions

 

Client Introduction

Driftwood is a lifestyle and hospitality brand that manages a diverse portfolio of boutique hotels and resorts across the U.S. Known for creating immersive guest experiences, Driftwood’s brand voice is grounded in authenticity, creativity, and personalized service. With a growing footprint and increasing customer engagement demands, Driftwood sought innovative ways to scale its content creation and operational efficiency.

Problem/Client Challenges

As Driftwood expanded its brand and properties, it faced several challenges:

  • Content Bottlenecks: Creating high-quality, personalized content across websites, social media, and guest communication channels became time-consuming and inconsistent.

  • Scaling Personalized Marketing: With dozens of properties, each with unique offerings, manually crafting marketing material for each location wasn’t scalable.

  • Operational Inefficiencies: Staff spent significant time on repetitive administrative tasks such as FAQs, internal communications, and guest responses.

  • Limited Use of Data Insights: Data from guest feedback, reviews, and surveys were underutilized due to lack of automation in analysis and synthesis.

Problem
