Built by a Restaurant OwnerWho Got Fed Up
I searched everywhere for a single platform to manage my catering business. It didn't exist. So I built it.

From Spreadsheet Chaos to Simple Solutions
As a restaurant owner who also runs a catering business, I was drowning in paperwork. Client contracts in one place, invoices in another, staff schedules in spreadsheets, and payment tracking all over the place.
I searched for months trying to find a single platform that could handle everything. Something built specifically for caterers. A one-stop shop that just worked.
It didn't exist.
So I built Cateriq. Not as a tech company, but as a restaurant owner who needed it to exist. Every feature solves a real problem I faced daily. Because if I needed this, I knew other caterers did too.

The Problems I Faced Daily
Sound familiar?
😓 Client Confusion
Clients constantly asking "Did you get my payment?" "Where's the contract?" "What did we agree on?"
📧 Email Overload
Digging through hundreds of emails to find one contract or invoice. Pure chaos.
⏰ Staff Headaches
Manually tracking who worked what hours, calculating pay, chasing down timesheets.
💸 Payment Delays
Waiting weeks for checks to arrive, then more time for them to clear. Terrible cash flow.
📄 Contract Nightmares
Spending 30+ minutes creating each contract, printing, scanning, emailing back and forth.
🗓️ Double Bookings
Nearly booking two events on the same day because my calendar was a mess.
I was spending more time on admin than actually cooking.
That needed to change.
