You know that friend who knows every spot and every person to call? Hoost is that, in your pocket. Find the room. Line up the crew. Send the invite. Then watch the whole night come together on one board. Discover venues and vendors, ask for quotes, and keep every reply, booking and RSVP in one place. No spreadsheets, no group-chat archaeology. FIND THE ROOM Rooftops, restaurants, private dining rooms, galleries and studios, with real photos, capacity, packages and prices where the venue publishes them. Browse as a list, a photo grid, or swipe through like a deck. BUILD THE CREW Caterers, DJs, photographers, bartenders, florists and more, in the same search. Filter by date and guest count. SAVE IT TO AN EVENT Tap save, pick the event. Your birthday shortlist stays out of the wedding. ASK A FEW PLACES AT ONCE Request quotes for the same event from several venues and vendors. When they reply, see what each quote covers and what it costs. THE EVENTBOARD Your date, guest count, saved places, open requests, quotes and bookings, together on one board. You can see what is waiting on a reply and what is confirmed. TALK TO THE BUSINESS Message venues and vendors right in Hoost. Questions, changes and quotes stay in one thread, tied to your event. GUESTS AND RSVPS Send an invitation link. Guests can RSVP from their phone without downloading anything, and your guest list fills in on your event. ASK VESPER Not sure where to start? Vesper is Hoost's AI planner. Tell it what you have in mind and it helps you work out what the night needs. THE JOURNAL Short stories about real events: who hosted, where it happened, what made it work. Ideas for when you know the vibe but not the plan. PAY SECURELY When a venue or vendor accepts payment in Hoost, check out by card through Stripe. You see the full total before you pay, and your receipt stays with the event. Prices, availability and confirmation are set by each business. Some listings have not been claimed by their owner yet; for those, Hoost passes your request along. Questions? team@hoost.it
