Meet the team at Olelo Intelligence
Your Strategic Partner
Olelo Intelligence was born out of a passion for technical innovation combined with a deep understanding of the difficulty in improving sales performance at scale. Founded by a battle-tested operations and technology leader and a veteran mortgage production executive, our journey began with a clear vision: to create a platform that blends the wisdom of experience with the power of AI. We wanted to empower businesses whose lifeblood is impactful customer communications to not just keep up with market changes, but to thrive and lead the way.
Drawing inspiration from our heritage, we embrace the values of exploration, adaptability, and thirst for knowledge as the foundation of our approach. Just as 'ōlelo means ‘language’ in Hawaiian, we believe in the power of communication—understanding what your clients are saying, and using that insight to drive smarter, more effective sales strategies.
Rooted in Hawaiian values, driven by cutting-edge AI,
and guided by decades of performance-driven sales expertise.

Guided by Values, Driven by Results
Our Core Values
Exploration
We take our inspiration from turtles, or "honu". Sea turtles are a symbol of guidance and wayfinding, traveling vast distances across the ocean and returning to the same nesting grounds. We strive to enable our clients to find their way forward through the perilous waters of rapidly evolving markets with wisdom and resilience.
Adaptability
We take our inspiration from water and the ocean or "vai". "Vai" reflects the ubiquitous presence of life flourishing with the changes in the tide. We strive to help our clients adapt and thrive through market changes.
Innovation
We take our inspiration from the whale, or "koholā. "Koholā" in Hawaiian lore are protectors and guides. We adopt the symbol of two of the strongest whales who swim ahead of the group to protect and inform the others in their pod of what is to come. We strive to peer ahead to prepare our clients for continued and future success.
