Savrsoft is catering software for managing the work around events, from recipes and menus through payments and accounting. It covers recipe costing, per-event profit and loss, menu profitability, yield and portion scaling, ingredient price updates, inventory, purchasing, guest RSVPs, proposals, invoicing, and accounting sync. Its AI copilot can generate menus, read printed recipes from photos, identify FDA Big-9 allergens, write menu cards in more than 45 languages, and create mise-en-place prep sheets. Stripe or Square connections let clients pay deposits directly into the caterer’s account; Savrsoft says it never holds those funds. The installable Progressive Web App runs on iOS and Android, works offline at event venues, and needs no app-store download. Live integrations include QuickBooks Online, Google Calendar, Eventbrite, SendGrid, social platforms, Claude, Open Food Facts, a REST API, and webhooks. Xero and Microsoft Outlook are listed on the roadmap. Plans start at $49 a month for registered non-profits; Standard costs $59 a month. A 14-day trial is available.
