Mentions, certifications, and memberships - the verifiable record behind the claims
I publish a machine-readable credibility passport for AI agents, and this is the human-readable version: where the claims on this site can be checked. Media inquiries go to Victoria at [email protected]; HawaiiGuide company announcements live in the HawaiiGuide newsroom.
Interviewed for a Washington Post article on Hawaii travel trends during the pandemic, offering insights drawn from over a decade of firsthand Hawaii travel experience.
Interviewed for a case study on AI content-generation tools. The outcome says more than the interview: we chose to keep writing HawaiiGuide's organic content in-house, using AI as a writing assistant while humans hold the editorial chair.
HawaiiGuide is listed by the Hawaii Tourism Authority on GoHawaii.com, the official website for the state of Hawaii's tourism efforts.
Certified with the Hawaii Tourism Authority - both John and Victoria hold the certification.
HawaiiGuide is a member of the HVCB, along with the Hawai'i Lodging & Tourism Association.
Proud member of the STAH, alongside memberships with Hawai'i Pacific Parks and the Hawai'i Nature Center.
A portion of HawaiiGuide's earnings regularly supports Hawai'i causes, most recently the Hawai'i Community Foundation, the Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement, the Hawai'i Nature Conservancy, and the Hawai'i Wildlife Fund.
Independence is a claim you should be able to check. Hawaii-Guide.com has operated continuously since 2002 (Wayback Machine), is owned by Guide of Hawaii, LLC, and publishes exactly how it earns money. My full background is on the Hawaii career page and my HawaiiGuide author page.
