What if designing your next hotel could be done in minutes—not months?

In this episode of Check-In with Bryan, we’re joined by Brian Ahmes, co-founder of Parafin, an AI-powered platform that’s transforming how developers evaluate sites, run financial models, and design hospitality projects. From his early architecture days at HKS to pitching radical hotel concepts to Hyatt’s C-suite, Brian shares an extraordinary journey blending design, data, and disruption.

We dive into:

  • How Parafin bridges the gap between architecture and finance
  • Why big brands like Hyatt and Marriott took notice
  • What it really takes to innovate in a slow-moving industry
  • Real-world stories of pivoting from prefab pods to AI simulations
  • How developers are using Parafin to streamline approvals and save money

Whether you’re a developer, architect, or curious about the future of hotel design, this episode unpacks the intersection of creativity and computation—and what it means for the next generation of hospitality.
