Curate

Curate is an AI-assisted operations platform designed specifically for event professionals, serving caterers, venues, florists, and event teams. Founded in 2015 by Ryan O'Neil, the company emerged from his experience running Twisted Willow Design, a floral and event design company in St. Louis, Missouri. Frustrated by the complexity of managing events with thousands of small details - from proposals and recipes to payments and production - Ryan created Curate to help event businesses streamline their operations and increase profitability.

The platform consolidates sales, proposals, production, payments, and client communication into one intelligent system, allowing event professionals to automate time-consuming administrative tasks. Curate's software enables users to create stunning proposals in minutes, manage recipes and wholesale orders efficiently, and handle payments through an integrated one-screen signing and payment system. Trusted by hundreds of florists, rental companies, and caterers, Curate has helped its customers create over one million proposals, demonstrating its significant impact on the event industry. The company is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, and continues to innovate with AI and automation features that help event professionals save time and grow their businesses.
