Let’s talk about something simple.
Or at least, something that should be simple.
☕ Coffee.
🥐 Breakfast pastries.
🥗 Lunch for the team or clients.
You’d think requesting catering for a meeting would be easy. But for most organizations, it’s anything but.
The reality of Meeting Catering today
Here’s how it usually plays out:
- Someone sends an email to the catering team…
- Then realizes they forgot to include dietary needs…
- Someone else changes the meeting room…
- The catering team never gets the update…
- Sandwiches arrive at the wrong location…
- Or worse, don’t arrive at all.
- ... But you still have to pay for them...
All while the meeting organizer is running around, trying to fix things minutes before people walk in.
Sound familiar?
You’re not alone.
From chaos to clarity: The AskCody way
At AskCody, we believe catering should be the easiest part of your meeting — not the most frustrating.
So we fixed it.
Our platform connects meeting organizers, facilities teams, service providers, and catering staff in one seamless system. That means:
You book a meeting, and order catering at the same time
Dietary preferences and delivery location are logged automatically
Changes to meeting time or location update your catering order — instantly
Everyone involved knows exactly what’s needed, where, and when
No more emails.
No more chasing people down.
Just coffee where you need it, when you need it.
More than coffee: It’s about productivity
When we talk about meeting management, we often focus on calendars and room bookings. But what makes a meeting successful is everything surrounding that 30 or 60 minutes on the calendar.
That includes the right room. The right technology. The right services. And yes: the right coffee.
Every time something goes wrong, productivity takes a hit. Teams get frustrated. Guests are left unimpressed. And time gets wasted on things that should have been automatic.
Why it matters now more than ever
Today’s workplace needs to be frictionless. Especially in hybrid and client-facing organizations, where meetings are crucial touchpoints for collaboration, innovation, and business growth.
The question we asked when building AskCody was simple:
- What if meetings just worked — without friction, chaos, or confusion?
We didn’t stop at the calendar invite. We tackled everything that happens after it’s sent.
Because productivity isn’t just about showing up on time. It’s about ensuring everything else - from catering to AV to visitor check-ins - supports the meeting, not distracts from it.
The future of meetings tastes better with Coffee ☕
So, next time someone says, “Can we get coffee for this meeting?” — what’s your process? And how about booking other meeting services like catering, food, and beverages, room setups, meeting logistics, table arrangements, or cleaning?
If it involves a flurry of emails, phone calls, or manual updates, there’s a better way.
Let AskCody show you how effortless catering - and full-spectrum meeting management - can be.
Or learn from one of our great customers: 📣 “We used to send catering requests manually and they got lost all the time. With AskCody, we finally have one system that takes care of it. It’s saved us hours each week — and a lot of headaches.”
