From an early partner
“Minaka combines all the platforms we were using. Having venue and beverage information in one place means everything runs smoothly — for our team and our clients.”
From the founder
Built by operators, for operators.
By Tim, Founder of Minaka
Minaka was designed by a team that has spent years inside venue operations — running events, building bookings pipelines, hiring and scheduling staff, and chasing payments. Every feature in the platform comes from a real pain point we've felt firsthand or seen our partner venues struggle with.
We're based in the United States and currently working hand-in-hand with multi-venue operators in the wedding, event, and hospitality space. Our private beta partners get direct access to the founding team, weekly product reviews, and a roadmap shaped by their day-to-day reality.

Definition
What is Minaka?
Minaka is a centralized, mobile-first operating system for venue and event operators. A software-as-a-service platform that replaces eight or more disconnected tools — CRM, calendar, contracts, payments, staff scheduling, payroll, and reporting — with a single unified workflow built for the way venues actually run.
Headquartered in the United States. Currently in private beta with select multi-venue operators.
05/How It Works
One source of truth.
Built for the way venues actually run.
The platform is built around a simple principle: every venue and event operator deserves one source of truth. Instead of stitching together a CRM, a contracts tool, a payments processor, a scheduling app, and a reporting dashboard, Minaka unifies the entire operation into a single, mobile-first operating system — designed mobile first, from the ground up.
01
For operators
Close more deals from your phone, coordinate staff without group texts, and see real-time financial performance across every venue in your portfolio. Full functionality on mobile — not a watered-down companion app.
02
For clients
A premium self-service portal where they review contracts, make payments, view itineraries, and get answers — without waiting on a human to respond. Contracts, signatures, and payments flow through one unified experience.
03
For your team
Clear shift assignments, mobile access to event details, automated closeout reports, and one place to log expenses and tips. Your staff stops chasing spreadsheets and starts running flawless events.
Currently in private beta with select multi-venue operators in the U.S. We work directly with each operator we onboard, gathering feedback weekly and shipping improvements based on real day-to-day operations — not assumptions.

06/FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
01
What is Minaka?
Minaka is a centralized, mobile-first operating system for venue and event operators. It replaces 8+ disconnected tools — CRM, calendar, contracts, payments, payroll, and reporting — with one unified platform.
02
Who is Minaka built for?
Minaka is built for multi-venue operators and serious event professionals managing wedding venues, event spaces, restaurants, hotels, and coworking spaces.
03
What tools does Minaka replace?
Minaka replaces tools like HoneyBook, Tripleseat, Planning Pod, DocuSign, Calendly, 7shifts, When I Work, Square, FreshBooks, Mailchimp, and Typeform by consolidating their core functions into one platform.
04
Does Minaka work on mobile?
Yes. Minaka is mobile-first by design, giving operators and staff full functionality on phones and tablets — including bookings, contracts, payments, itineraries, and reporting.
05
How much does Minaka cost?
Minaka is currently in private beta and pricing is shared directly with operators we onboard. Join the waitlist to receive current pricing and beta terms.
06
Can I migrate from HoneyBook, Tripleseat, or Planning Pod?
Yes. During onboarding we work directly with each operator to migrate contacts, events, contracts, and historical records from existing tools. There is no self-serve import — every migration is hands-on so nothing is lost in translation.
07
What integrations does Minaka support?
Minaka integrates with Stripe for payments and processing, with Google Calendar, Outlook, and iCal for two-way calendar sync, and with email and SMS providers for client communication. Additional integrations are added based on operator requests during the beta.
08
How does Minaka keep my data secure?
Minaka uses TLS encryption in transit and at-rest encryption for stored data, role-based access controls, row-level security in our database, and access logging on production systems. Payments are processed by Stripe and are never stored on our servers. See our Privacy Policy for details.
09
How long does implementation take?
Most operators are live within 2–4 weeks of onboarding, depending on portfolio size and how much historical data is migrated. We work hands-on with each operator during this period rather than pointing to a knowledge base.
10
Can I run Minaka offline or with poor venue Wi-Fi?
Minaka is designed for the realities of venue operations — basements, loading docks, ballrooms with weak signal. Critical workflows are resilient to spotty connectivity and sync once a connection is restored. Some features that require live data (e.g., real-time payment confirmation) need an active connection.
11
Does Minaka support multiple venues from one account?
Yes. Multi-venue operators can manage an unlimited number of venues from a single portfolio account, with cross-venue reporting, shared contacts, and per-venue staff and permissions. There is no separate seat or per-venue cap on users.
12
How do I get access to the beta?
Join the waitlist with your venue details and our team reviews each request. We onboard operators in cohorts based on venue type, portfolio size, and geography so we can support every operator hands-on through their first events.

08/Use Cases
Real operators. Real workflows.
How operators use Minaka day-to-day to run venues, host events, and manage portfolios at scale.
01
Wedding venues
Tours, contracts, and seasonal staff
A wedding venue running 80–120 events per year typically uses a lead form, a calendar, an e-signature tool, a payment processor, a staff scheduler, and a spreadsheet to track everything. Minaka consolidates all of that into one mobile-first workflow — when an inquiry comes in through the public lead form, it lands in the CRM, kicks off an automated tour-booking sequence, generates a proposal template once the tour completes, and tracks the deposit through e-signature and ACH payment without any manual data entry. Coordinators check the day's tours and tastings from their phones; venue owners check revenue and pacing from anywhere.
02
Multi-venue operators
Corporate, social, and pop-up programs
Operators with 3–10 event spaces across one or more cities need portfolio-level visibility without sacrificing per-venue control. The platform offers a unified dashboard where the admin team can see bookings, revenue, and labor across every venue, while each venue manager runs their own day-to-day operations with permissions scoped to their space. Cross-venue reporting, shared client records, and template defaults eliminate the duplicate work that plagues multi-location operators on legacy tools.
03
Restaurants & hospitality
Private events and buyouts
Restaurants that host buyouts, rehearsal dinners, and corporate lunches frequently lose deals because their inquiry-to-contract process is slow and disjointed. Inquiries pile up in shared inboxes, beverage minimums and food & beverage spreads are quoted by hand, and contracts go out via email attachments. With this centralized operating system, a private events lead can confirm a booking, send a contract, take a deposit, and add the event to the kitchen's prep schedule — all from a single mobile interface, often during the same conversation with the client.
