WHAT THEY CANNOT DO
From inquiry to execution. Included.
Tripleseat captures leads and generates BEOs. Planning Pod manages tasks and timelines. But running a venue requires proposals, floor plans, catering, POS, and day-of execution that neither platform delivers.
Proposals & E-Signatures: Included
Tripleseat generates basic PDFs. Planning Pod has no proposal tools. Calisto Proposals creates branded, interactive proposals that clients can review, customize line by line, and approve online. Calisto Sign captures legally binding e-signatures with a full audit trail, automatic reminders and counter-signing, and triggers deposit collection the moment the contract is signed. No DocuSign subscription needed.
Floor Plan Builder: Included
Neither Tripleseat nor Planning Pod offers visual floor plan design. Calisto Seat Designer provides drag-and-drop venue layout creation from presets, with round tables, square tables, booths, bar counters, stages, and zones. Clients see interactive floor plans in their portal. Staff sees table assignments on TV displays. The same layout powers POS dine-in and the Ops table board.
Day-Of Operations: Included
Lead capture tools stop when the contract is signed. Calisto continues into day-of execution with POS for bar, kitchen, merch and concessions, a kitchen display system routing food orders in real time, crew rostering with automated call sheets, equipment tracking, and live event dashboards. BEO items auto-generate production tasks. Everything connects to the same event, the same client, the same financial record.
Native Payment Processing
40+ regional payment gateways built in. Accept credit cards, ACH, bank transfers, and digital wallets. Tripleseat requires a separate payment provider.
Event Ticketing & QR Check-In
Multi-tier tickets, Apple Wallet and Google Wallet passes, real-time QR scanning at entry, and zone capacity monitoring. Tripleseat has no ticketing system.
SVG Floor Plan Designer
Drag-and-drop floor plan builder with 7 preset templates, 9 layout types, section-level capacity, and a read-only viewer for POS and operations boards.
Production Management
Stage & lineup management, crew scheduling by department, artist riders, setlist tracking, production budgets with actuals, and co-promotion revenue splits.
Dynamic Pricing Engine
Demand-based pricing, seasonal adjustments, competitor monitoring, and pricing rules engine. Maximize revenue per event with smart rate optimization.
Staff Scheduling & Compliance
Automated scheduling matches staff to events by role and certification. Training programs, compliance tracking, and audit-ready records, all native.
TV Digital Signage (6 Templates)
Event Schedule Board, Reader Board, Check-In Status Board, Space Availability Board, Welcome Board, and Arrivals Board. Apple TV, Android TV, and Fire TV native app.
Guest & Attendee Portal
Client self-service for proposals, contracts, and payments. Attendee portal for tickets, event maps, mobile food ordering, and in-portal messaging.
Milestone Auto-Emails
Configurable email sequences triggered before or after events. Menu selections at 30 days, final count at 14 days, BEO approval at 7 days, thank you at 1 day post.
Hotel Room Blocks (GRC)
Guest Room Control with room-night grid editor, pickup tracking, cutoff date alerts, GRC reporting, and two-way PMS sync with OPERA Cloud and Mews.
One system. One login. One view of your revenue.
Tripleseat excels at event proposals and management, but you still add Stripe for payments, a third-party scheduler for staff, Eventbrite for ticketing, and a separate tool for marketing. Calisto integrates every function: bookings, BEOs, ticketing, production, payments, operations, and revenue, so your team sees the complete picture.
Choose your processor. Not theirs.
Tripleseat has limited payment integrations and pushes their preferred processors. Planning Pod uses Stripe only. Calisto connects to 75 payment gateways across 11 global regions. Collect deposits, process final payments, and handle refunds through your own merchant account.

Switching questions
Can clients see and approve BEOs in the portal?
Yes. Calisto Navigator gives every client a self-service portal where they can review BEOs, approve floor plans, sign contracts, make payments, and message your team. Changes clients request flow back to your ops dashboard for review. No email attachments or PDF round-trips.
How does the floor plan builder work with POS?
Floor plans created in Seat Designer power both the client-facing layout view and the operational table board. POS servers see the same layout when taking dine-in orders. Ops staff see table status on TV displays. One floor plan, used everywhere.
Can I manage multiple venue spaces and rooms?
Yes. Each venue can have multiple spaces with independent floor plans, capacity limits, and pricing. The event pipeline shows availability across all spaces. BEOs can span multiple rooms for multi-space events. Pricing rules can vary by space, day of week, and season.
How does pricing work?
Setting up costs nothing and no card is required. You get full access to all 100 products with no feature restrictions. Core and Enterprise carry no additional cost. Commerce is a 1% revenue share. Every other suite is priced per app in the Marketplace.
Why do you charge a percentage of revenue?
Because it makes us partners, not a vendor. A flat subscription means your software company collects the same fee in your best month and your worst. A revenue share means we only grow when you grow. Slow month or off-season? Your bill scales down with you.
