In their own words
BEO HQ
BEO HQ turns event details into banquet event orders and related catering documents. From the same event data, it generates proposals, contracts, invoices and quotes, while calculating service charges, taxes, deposits and balances. Users can save client, venue and menu records or duplicate a past event. Its menu library supports courses, per-person or per-item prices, and dietary and allergen flags. Starter includes QuickBooks and CSV export; Pro adds shareable client approval links and e-signatures with an audit trail. BEO HQ does not process payments, leaving customers to keep their own payment setup. The service runs on the web and is described as built for solo caterers and independent planners. The Free plan permits one BEO and one catering invoice, and PDFs include a small BEO HQ footer credit. Starter costs $19 a month and Pro costs $39 a month. The first paid subscription has a 30-day money-back guarantee, available once per customer. The company says users can import and export their documents and financials.
