In this episode of Outdoor Hospitality Weekly, we go deep on AI in our first AI “Tech Corner” takeover—breaking down the real tools, workflows, and use cases we’re actively using across campground operations, investing, and day-to-day work.
Matt shares his experience building with Claude Code and OpenClaw, including how AI agents actually work, what it takes to set them up, and the reality behind automation. We also unpack the shifting economics of AI, including recent pricing changes from Anthropic and what they signal for the future of AI tools.
On the operations side, Alex walks through how AI is already impacting campground revenue management, highlighting new predictive pricing and occupancy tools inside reservation systems like Campspot—and how even single-location operators can now leverage data like a full-scale revenue manager.
