Event operations platform
The work behind every event, connected.
Bring sales, planning, production, payments, staffing, and reporting together in one connected event record.
Capture and sell
Move new business from the first inquiry through booking without rebuilding the same event details in disconnected tools.
Inquiries and contacts
Collect the details your team needs with accessible, customizable inquiry forms. Submissions create contact records, route inquiries into your pipeline, and give your team the requested date, customer context, and follow-up details in one place.
Workflow forms
Turn qualified requests into ready-to-work projects automatically. Apply an owner and the right project details, order, contract, payment, and timeline templates so the operational record starts with the information your team already collected.
Storefront and online ordering
Publish selected catalog products in a mobile-friendly storefront with sections, ordering windows, lead times, pickup instructions, and delivery options. Each submitted order creates a project with the selected products, customer details, fulfillment information, and product-specific requests attached.
Proposal builder
Build visual proposals from your catalog with reusable sections, images, descriptions, recipes, staffing, rentals, and pricing. Keep internal production details separate while presenting clients with a polished, accurate view of their event.
Client portal
Give clients one branded place to review proposals, approve changes, sign contracts, make payments, and follow project communication. Portal deadlines and current project details keep the next step clear for everyone.
Contracts and signatures
Create contracts with reusable templates, rich formatting, and project data that fills in automatically. Clients can sign in the portal, your team can countersign, and booking controls can keep payment and contract steps in the right order.
Payments, tax, and gratuity
Build payment schedules with percentage, fixed-amount, or evenly divided installments and due dates tied to the project date. Curate Payments supports card and bank payments, receipts, refunds, payment reminders, tax profiles, fees, and optional gratuity in the client portal.
"Curate has become an extremely essential tool for business because it saves just hours of work every day. The proposals become automated. Everything is very automated. It's an all-in-one from client management to proposals to payments. I really couldn't imagine scaling at the level we're scaling without Curate."

Plan every project
Keep the schedule, communication, responsibilities, and reusable setup connected as work moves from sales to operations.
Projects, pipeline, and calendar
See projects by stage, date, owner, color, and branch, then open the connected workroom directly from the calendar. Check a requested date from an inquiry, add context to blacked-out dates, and sync project dates from Curate to Google Calendar.
Client communication
Keep email-style messages, portal links, replies, and contact-level text conversations close to the project record. Reusable email templates and personalization fields help teams communicate consistently without losing the history behind a decision.
Automations and workflows
Trigger repeatable actions when a proposal is sent, a contract is signed, a payment arrives, or a project changes stage. Update stages, send the right message, schedule reminders, and record automation activity in project history.
Timelines and tasks
Coordinate setup, service, breakdown, and other milestones in one timeline workspace. Control client visibility item by item, use relative dates in templates, and assign internal tasks with owners, due dates, descriptions, and statuses.
Template library
Standardize repeatable work with templates for project details, orders, contracts, payment schedules, timelines, and emails. Explore Curate-built templates and AI Skills, then adapt them to the way your team sells, plans, and executes events.
Build and price
Turn what you sell into a costed operational plan your sales, culinary, production, and finance teams can use.
Catalog, recipes, and packages
Maintain reusable products, components, recipes, rentals, staffing line items, and packages in one catalog. Costs, markup profiles, account codes, production notes, and recipe quantities carry into orders so teams can price and prepare from the same source.
Orders, costs, and pricing
Build detailed orders from catalog items or reusable templates, then adjust quantities, prices, discounts, taxes, and production details for the project. Order Breakdown shows cost, labor, price, and profit from the project level down to line items and components.
Custom and calculated properties
Capture the project and contact details that matter to your operation. Map form responses into custom properties, include them in templates and reports, and calculate new numeric or currency values from data already on the record.
Media library and visual content
Organize reusable images in searchable folders and mood boards for proposals, products, and project work. Keep internal reference images separate from client-facing images so production context stays available without appearing in the portal or proposal PDF.
"I had a really strong wedding brand and Curate helped me take it to another level. It has helped us create and implement processes for each category of our wedding business. The efficiencies that we've created with Curate have been life-changing for the company."

Translate the sold project into the purchasing, production, inventory, staffing, and day-of details each team needs.
Production and purchasing
Aggregate ingredients and components across projects into shopping and production lists with quantities, units, categories, and cost detail. Build purchase orders from those needs, record actual costs and invoices, and send clear quantities and fulfillment dates to vendors.
Project prints and operational documents
Create configurable project documents for recipes, components, shopping, staffing, timelines, and production notes. Saved print settings and project context help each department get a focused PDF or printed packet for preparation and event-day execution.
Rental inventory
Track rental quantities across date-out and date-in ranges, see availability while building orders, and catch overlapping demand before inventory is overcommitted. Rental statuses, returns, bulk actions, and reports support the work after an item is reserved.
Staffing operations
Plan staffing line items with roles, quantities, shift times, internal pay rates, and client-facing bill rates. Include staffing needs in orders and project documents, and map catalog roles to StaffMate positions for one-way staffing requirement sync.
Understand the business
Use the connected event record to see what is booked, what needs attention, and where revenue and margin are coming from.
Reports and profitability
Analyze projects, payments, receivables, rentals, line items, costs, and profit with standard and custom reports. Filter custom reports without changing their setup, combine date conditions with OR logic, export results, and follow links back to the underlying projects.
AI Assist
Ask questions about projects and operational data, generate links to filtered reports, interpret uploaded files, duplicate templates, and draft new records from natural language. Curate shows proposed changes for review and requires approval before AI Assist creates or updates data.
"I'm booking 13 out of 15 proposals sent! Booking rate with this program is way higher than it was."

Operate at scale
Give growing teams the structure, visibility, and connections they need across branches, roles, and systems.
Multi-location operations
Organize projects, calendars, users, catalogs, reporting, and integrations by branch while keeping leadership visibility across the business. Connect separate payment accounts where needed and show branch context throughout schedules and activity history.
Team controls and activity history
Set role and branch access for sensitive actions and reporting, protect projects from unintended deletion, and recover recently deleted work. Project and account-level history helps authorized teams see what changed, who changed it, and when.
Integrations
Connect Curate with tools used across finance, calendars, recipes, payments, staffing, and client communication. Supported connections include QuickBooks Online, Google Calendar, Galley, Nowsta, StaffMate, Curate Payments, and Curate Texting, with branch-level setup available where the workflow requires it.
"We did 70 events and made $170,000 this year. We couldn't have done it without Curate. They've reduced the time it takes to create proposals by 50%. I would recommend Curate in a heartbeat."
