Your budget, built fromthe quotes you already accepted.
Extract any quote or venue contract in a click. Track it against your total. See actuals, what's outstanding, and what's due when — without typing a number twice.
THE PROBLEM
The budget is always a week behind the event.
The quote lands as a PDF. Someone retypes the figure into a spreadsheet, or doesn't. A vendor revises, the sheet doesn't. By the time you're reconciling, the version you're working from describes an event that's already moved.
Then the client asks where the money is, and you spend an evening finding out.
HOW IT WORKS
From quote to budget in one click.
Extraction, not data entry
Every quote that comes through your Quote Hub can be extracted straight into Treasury. Venue contracts too. The number that goes into your budget is the number on the document, because nobody typed it.
Tied to the element
Confirm a quote and the price attaches to the element it was quoted for, and flows through to your scope of works. The budget and the build are the same record, so a change in one shows up in the other.
Track it live
Total budget, committed, actuals, outstanding. What’s been paid and what’s due when. One screen, current.
WHAT IT MEANS
When the client asks where the money is
The answer is a screen, not an evening of reconciliation.
When a quote comes back higher than the brief
You see it in the Quote Hub beside what you asked for, before it becomes a budget line.
When you’re running several events
Each one carries its own budget, built the same way, so comparing them doesn’t mean rebuilding anything.
WHAT THIS IS, AND WHAT IT ISN'T
Protée OS doesn't move money. There's no payment gateway, no funds held on your behalf, no disbursements to vendors.
It tracks what you've committed, what you've paid, and what's still outstanding — so the budget stays accurate without anyone maintaining it. You pay your vendors the way you always have.
You just always know where you stand.
