Nikhil Patil is Co-Founder and CTO at Otel AI, a Dublin-based AI platform purpose-built for hotel General Managers, where he leads all engineering and AI systems architecture.

Nikhil earned an M.Sc. in Computing (Data Analytics) from Dublin Institute of Technology and built his career across enterprise technology roles at Mastercard, Equifax, SAP, and Olytico.

As an AI and systems architect, Nikhil brings deep expertise in data engineering and enterprise integrations, enabling Otel AI to connect seamlessly with 100+ hotel systems without complex migrations.

Otel AI raised 2.8M euros in total seed funding within six months of launch, backed by Playfair Capital, Nebular, and Baseline, and is already deployed across hotels in Ireland and the UK.

Early results include an 8.6% year-on-year RevPAR increase at The Alex Hotel Dublin within the first three months, achieved without additional headcount, validating the platform's operational impact.
