From inquiry to invoice to load-out. Every event lives in one place — proposal, BEO, financials, seating, schedule, debrief.
Open an event and tab through Info, Items, Financials, Schedule, Seating, Tasks, Documents, Pack list, Debrief. Each tab reads the same source-of-truth event row, so changes propagate immediately — change the guest count and the pack list re-builds, the invoice updates, the seating chart flags missing seats.
Drop-offs and one-off catering don't need the full event drawer. Express Order is a 30-second flow: name, date, contact, items, done. The full record exists; it just defaulted everything sensibly.
Spreadsheet UX for editing many events at once. Bulk-receive payments distributes one $50,000 corporate check across four events in a single screen. Bulk archive, bulk cancel, bulk discontinue — every destructive bulk action requires owner approval before it runs.
The biggest time sink in catering software is the manual event setup — typing line items off a contract, attaching the right contact, splitting tax + service + gratuity. Drop the PDF (or photo of a napkin) into Maître chat and it does the typing for you.
“[Drop a signed contract PDF]”
MaîtreMaître extracts contact, event details, line items with quantities + prices, dietary notes, and proposed timeline. You review the structured form, click Save, the event is created.
“Draft a proposal for the Anderson wedding”
MaîtreMaître reads the event details, your default catalog pricing, your standard tax/service/gratuity rates — and writes a proposal you review + send.
“Cancel the Bautista event with reason 'venue conflict'”
MaîtreMaître updates the event status, applies the cancellation policy, generates the credit memo if applicable, and logs the cancellation in audit.
