Savor AI 50: Meet the 5 Finalists for Best Menu & Pricing AI
Menu prices rose 0.5% in October, the biggest monthly jump since December 2025, and they’re up 4.0% over the past 13 months while grocery prices rose 2.2%, according to the National Restaurant Association. Every point of that gap is a guest deciding whether to eat in. That makes the price on the menu, and the recipe cost under it, the most important number a restaurant sets. The five Best Menu & Pricing AI finalists are putting AI on both sides of it. Meet the finalists for Best Menu & Pricing AI in the Savor AI 50: The 2026 Restaurant AI Awards. Winners are revealed Dec. 1.
