Why:
Sometimes you just want to be in the driver’s seat! 🚗
Previously, when a guest paid their deposit and refreshed the proposal, the action button would automatically change to
“Pay Remaining Balance.”
Or maybe you sent a proposal just for the guest to
sign ✍️
, but when they refreshed, it jumped straight to
“Pay Deposit 💳.”
Not ideal — and sometimes costly! 💸
What’s New:
You now have more control with the new
“Automatically Advance Proposal Action”
setting. ⚙️
When this setting is toggled off, the action button will
not automatically update
after the guest completes the action you sent them. Instead, it’ll chill at
“No Action 😎”
until you decide what happens next.
How to Use:
  1. Head to Settings > Proposal ⚙️
  2. Toggle
    “Automatically Advance Proposal Action”
    off if you’d rather take the wheel 🕹️ (this will automatically apply to all current & future events in your system)
  3. When you’re ready for guests to move forward, just update the action 🚀

You can now ask the AI to rephrase its messages — your way!
Whether you want a response to
sound friendlier, more polished, more concise, or more detailed,
you’re in control. Just tell the AI how you’d like it to adjust the tone or style, and it will instantly rewrite the message to match your preference.
✨ Examples:
  • “Make this sound more casual.”
  • “Rephrase this in a more formal tone.”
  • “Give this a fun twist.”
  • “Simplify this message.”
  • “Add a little extra energy to this.”
This update makes it easier than ever to fine-tune AI replies until they sound just right for your audience.

You asked for more control — we delivered! We’ve rolled out some handy updates to give you more flexibility with proposal locking:
✨ What’s New:
  • You can now
    lock or unlock proposals per event
    — no need to stick with one rule for everything.
  • We’ve also added a
    "lock 3 weeks before the event"
    option for a nice balance of flexibility and structure.
🛠 Smarter Settings:
  • Want to make an exception?
    You can now override proposal lock settings for individual events.
  • Once you change the lock setting on an event, it’s locked in (pun intended 😄). Even if you update your venue-wide settings later, that individual event will keep its custom lock rule.
  • Not making any changes? Then your events will keep following your venue’s default locking rules as usual.
More power to you, one event at a time. 💪
Let us know if you have any questions — we’re always here to help!

You asked, we listened! You can now add discounts to individual
menu items
, either as a
percentage (%)
or a
fixed dollar amount ($)
— giving you more flexibility and control over your proposals.
PLUS:
Proposal-level discounts can now be set as a
percentage
, not just a flat dollar amount! 🎉
When applied, you’ll see:
  • The original price
  • The discount amount
  • The new discounted price
These updates show automatically on both the
guest-facing side
and your
BEOs
, keeping everything clear and consistent.
Perfect for special promos, VIP perks, or just making someone’s day. 🥳💵

Hey team! We’ve cooked up something fresh behind the scenes — introducing
Internal Menu Descriptions
! Perfect for giving your Back-of-House crew the scoop without cluttering guest-facing docs.
Here’s what’s on the prep table:
🔧
Set it up in Settings > Proposal
Choose what shows up on your
BEO
and
Staff BEO
:
  • ✅ Guest-facing
    Menu Description
  • 🛠️
    Internal Menu Description
    (BOH only!)
You can toggle either one — or both! — depending on what you want your docs to show.
🍽️
Add the juicy details in Settings > Menu
Jump into any menu item and drop in your
Internal Menu Description
.
Think: prep notes, plating tips, chef secrets… you get the idea.
Why?
Because the kitchen runs smoother when everyone’s in the loop — and your guests never see what they don’t need to.
Fire it up and keep your team sharp! 🔥
