|---|---|---|
| Deployment model | SaaS dashboard + printed QR sign at the lot | Valet-team SaaS dashboard + valet-attendant tablets |
| Hardware required | None | Tablets / phones for valet attendants |
| Driver QR-pay flow | Scan, pay, drive — no app, no account | Driver redeems digital valet ticket; payment runs through the valet workflow |

Best for Get Valet
A fair comparison starts by acknowledging where the other vendor is the right call. Get Valet is a real product with a real fit. These are the buyer profiles who should probably stick with Get Valet (or pick it new), not replace it with Park Graph.
Hotels and restaurants running dedicated valet teams
Get Valet's product is built around the valet attendant workflow — ticket issue, key tracking, vehicle retrieval — that self-park software does not handle.
Event venues with on-demand valet operations
Get Valet's customer-SMS retrieval flow is well-suited to event-driven valet stands where peak retrieval bursts happen at curtain or final whistle.
Properties whose entire parking model is valet, not self-park
If every vehicle on the property is handled by a valet attendant, Get Valet is the right shape of tool. Park Graph is built around self-park QR-pay sessions.
Best for Park Graph
And these are the buyer profiles where Park Graph is the better fit — the cases where the operating shape, the cost model, or the AI-agent surface tilt the comparison toward operator-side software.
Properties with self-park lots alongside valet
Get Valet handles the valet stand; Park Graph handles the self-park lot adjacent to it. Most properties end up with both surfaces.
Operators outside the dedicated-valet context
For surface lots, garages, events, hospitals, universities, or commercial real estate without a valet team, Get Valet is overbuilt and Park Graph is the right shape.
Operators who want AI-agent reachability and a public API
Park Graph publishes an MCP server, a ChatGPT Actions integration, and a public REST API with webhooks. Get Valet does not publish either as of 2026-05-04.
Operators who want transaction-based pricing
Park Graph starts free and scales with paid sessions. Get Valet is a per-location subscription model. The right shape depends on whether your value driver is paid-session volume or staffed-valet operations.
Feature matrix
A row-by-row look at how the two products handle the things operators actually have to deliver — the driver flow, the operator dashboard, the API surface, the brand on the receipt. Where Get Valet's row reads “not publicly documented” or “partner-only,” we checked their public site on the date noted in the Sources section.
| Feature | Park Graph | Get Valet |
|---|---|---|
| Primary use case | Self-park — QR-pay sessions | Staffed valet operations — ticket + key tracking |
| Driver flow | Scan QR → tap pay → done | Hand keys to attendant → digital ticket → SMS retrieval |
| Attendant workflow | Out of scope (no attendant required) | Yes — Get Valet's primary product surface |
| Operator dashboard | Sessions, revenue, occupancy, payouts | Tickets, retrievals, attendant performance |
| Public REST API | Yes, with webhooks | Limited / partner-gated per public docs |
| AI-agent / MCP | Public MCP + ChatGPT Actions | Not publicly documented as of 2026-05-04 |
| Dynamic pricing | Rule-based + AI overrides | Per attendant rate card |
| Pricing model | Per-transaction software fee, free Starter | Per-location subscription |
| Hardware required | None | Tablets / phones for attendants |
| White-label option | Yes (Pro / Enterprise) | Limited per public material |
| Time to first paid session | Minutes after sign-up | Attendant training + workflow setup |
| Best-fit vertical | Self-park lots, garages, events, hotels, hospitals, universities | Hotel valet, restaurant valet, event valet |
Pricing model — qualitative comparison
Park Graph and Get Valet target different value drivers. Park Graph is a per-transaction software fee on self-park sessions, with a free Starter tier. Get Valet's public material describes a per-location subscription model that scales with the number of valet stands on the platform — a fit for hospitality groups running staffed valet across multiple properties. We do not publish a Get Valet subscription number because Get Valet does not publish a single one; reach out to them for your specific portfolio.
We deliberately do not quote a Get Valet percentage, per-transaction fee, or contract minimum on this page. Public material from Get Valet does not always publish those numbers as a single rate, and inventing a number to make a comparison chart look tidier would be the exact kind of fake claim this page is built to avoid. For your specific deal, ask your Get Valet account manager — and for Park Graph, our pricing is published at /pricing with no hidden contract minimums.
Deployment, hardware, and time to launch
Park Graph is print, post, and accept payments — no attendants, no training. Get Valet's deployments are valet-team setups: configure the valet stand, train attendants on the digital-ticket flow, integrate with the property's PMS or POS where applicable, and go live with the staffed valet operation. Both models avoid hardware capex, but the operating model is fundamentally different.
The single biggest practical difference between Park Graph and Get Valet on most lots is how long it takes to accept the first paid session. Print, post, and accept payments — same day — is a different shape of operating motion than a procurement, install, or marketplace listing review.
AI-agent readiness, public API, and MCP
Park Graph publishes a Model Context Protocol server, a ChatGPT Actions manifest, and a public REST API with webhooks. Get Valet, as of 2026-05-04, does not publish an MCP endpoint, a ChatGPT Action manifest, or a self-serve developer API on getvalet.com. Their product is a staffed-valet workflow rather than a developer-facing platform; agent reachability is not where Get Valet competes today.
AI-agent commerce moved from theory to a real distribution channel in 2025 and 2026. Drivers ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity to find and pay for parking at the destination they are headed to, and assistants that speak Model Context Protocol can complete that transaction inside the chat. Park Graph publishes a public MCP server and ChatGPT Actions manifest so any lot in the network is reachable to those assistants. See our MCP server and ChatGPT Actions docs for the full surface.
QR-payment comparison
Park Graph is QR-first because the driver self-parks: scan, pay, walk away. Get Valet's flow is fundamentally staffed: the driver hands keys to an attendant, who issues a digital ticket; the driver later requests retrieval over SMS. The comparison is not really about QR — it is about whether the property runs self-park, valet, or both. Properties with both end up running Park Graph for self-park alongside Get Valet (or another valet platform) for the valet stand.
A working QR-pay flow is now table stakes for any operator who wants to capture walk-up demand. The right comparison question is not “does the vendor support QR” (most do at this point) — it is “is QR the default driver flow with no app install required, or is it an add-on to the primary flow?” That distinction shows up directly in driver conversion at the lot.
Migration path
Operators do not migrate from Get Valet to Park Graph in a one-for-one sense; they are different categories. The migration that does make sense is a property that has been treating self-park as a manual-process side problem alongside the valet operation deciding to give the self-park lot a real platform. Step 1: print the Park Graph QR sign for the self-park portion. Step 2: leave Get Valet running the valet stand. Step 3: track self-park revenue for thirty days and decide whether the manual process can be retired entirely.
Most operators run both products side by side for thirty days before making a per-lot decision. The cost of running both is small (a printed sign and a free Starter plan on the Park Graph side); the cost of switching prematurely on a single hunch is much larger. We are happy to help design that thirty-day comparison — see our contact page.
About Get Valet
Get Valet is a valet parking management product built for hotels, restaurants, and event venues that run dedicated valet teams. The product covers digital ticketing, key tracking, attendant workflow, and customer-SMS retrieval — the operating reality of a staffed valet stand. Get Valet's strength is the valet workflow specifically; the product is purpose-built for that and does not extend into the self-park lot. Park Graph is operator-side software for self-park lots, garages, events, hotels, hospitals, and universities — the surface that sits next to (not inside) a valet stand.
Get Valet was founded in 2015 and is headquartered in United States. Get Valet is independently held. The company's public site is getvalet.com.
About Park Graph
Park Graph is AI-native parking management software. The product turns any parking lot into a QR-pay surface in under five minutes, ships an operator dashboard with sessions, revenue, occupancy, and payouts, and publishes a public REST API, an MCP server, and a ChatGPT Actions integration so AI assistants can find, quote, and pay for parking on behalf of drivers. Pricing is a per-transaction software fee with a three-tier ladder (Starter is free, Pro is monthly, Enterprise is monthly with a lower transaction fee and white-label). There is no hardware to buy, no integrator to schedule, and no contract minimum on Starter.
