## Featured Presentation
### From 8 Employees to 2: How We Used AI to Rebuild Our Business
For our next meetup, we're excited to welcome local entrepreneurs Travis Wailehua and Nick Weaver, founders of Hoku AI.
Unlike many AI presentations that focus on theory or future possibilities, Travis and Nick will share a behind-the-scenes look at how they actually implemented AI inside their own businesses to automate operations, streamline workflows, and dramatically reduce repetitive work.
Starting from their real estate investing and coaching companies, they began experimenting with AI tools to solve internal business challenges. What started as simple productivity improvements evolved into building AI-powered systems that now handle tasks ranging from lead qualification and customer communication to content creation, workflow automation, and operational support.
### During this session, they'll walk through:
• How they used AI to scale operations while reducing manual workload
• Real business automations currently running inside their companies
• AI employees, voice agents, and workflow systems in action
• The biggest lessons learned from implementing AI in a growing business
• Practical automation ideas any business owner can begin using immediately
Attendees will also see live demonstrations of AI-powered business systems and learn how AI is changing the way modern companies operate.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, business owner, consultant, professional, or simply curious about practical AI applications, this session will provide real-world examples you can immediately apply to your own workflows.
As always, we'll leave plenty of time for networking, discussion, and Q&A with fellow AI enthusiasts here in Hawaiʻi.
This meetup is free and open to anyone interested in AI, ChatGPT, automation, and the future of business.
We look forward to seeing you there!
