Built in Pittsburgh by a single engineer who spent six months in valet stations before writing a line of customer-facing code.
The first instinct was to build a sleeker valet system for hotels. We were wrong about who the buyer was. Through the NSF I-Corps program in 2025, we ran 18-plus interviews with valet operators, hotel managers, drivers, and front office staff. The answer was clear: luxury hotels outsource valet to third-party operators, and the operator CEO (not the hotel GM) decides what tools the drivers use. The platform was rebuilt around that.
Hotels measure valet performance on car-return speed. Paper, SMS, and QR put a 10-minute floor on it.
I-Corps FindingOperators eat the cost when a ticket goes missing. The audit trail was missing from every system we looked at.
I-Corps FindingA guest stepping out of a $1,500-a-night suite shouldn't be handed a paper stub. The product had to feel like the hotel.
