why this matters

Booking a private event almost always means closing the room, or part of it, to regular guests. So the honest question is not what the event earns on its own. It is what the event earns against the covers it displaces. Sometimes the event wins easily. Sometimes a strong Friday dinner service is hard to beat, and knowing that protects you from booking a low event into a high-demand slot.

This tool puts the two side by side: the event minimum and spend against the regular revenue that slot normally produces. You see the real trade, by day and daypart, and you stop saying yes to events that look good but earn less than the night they replaced.
