Pricing

What you'll pay, month by month.

Setup is free. The AIR subscription is month to month. Cancel any time. AIR Pay card processing is the one thing with a term: a 1-year agreement with NMI, the processor, not with AIR. One plan, with the delivery apps included.

Compare

Good tools solve one slice. AIR connects the restaurant.

What each tool charges, where it is strong, and what AIR does instead. Prices are each vendor's published or commonly reported figures, as noted.

AIR and Toast

Toast, advertised or estimated

$0 starter / $69+ POS / custom

AIR

$199 a month

Toast advertises flexible starter packaging. Treat $69 as an entry POS number; ~$849 onboarding, hardware to ~$2,645, 1–3 years contracts, add-on suites, online ordering, and additional devices change the real monthly bill.

What restaurants really pay

$165-$465+ is the safer restaurant-stack range depending on whether you are comparing POS-only or POS plus KDS, online ordering, loyalty, marketing, delivery, and extra devices.

What to watch

Hardware, implementation, processing and add-ons drive the real cost, so compare those alongside the headline number.

How they charge

Typically sold as POS plus hardware, processing, and add-on suites for digital ordering, marketing, payroll, inventory, and more.

Where they are strong

Mature restaurant POS, large ecosystem, deep hardware stack.

What AIR does instead

AIR competes with the full Toast stack, not just the register. AIR includes POS, KDS, direct ordering, reservations, loyalty, SEO, ranking tracking, food cost, phone answering, growth tools, and your assistant. DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub come in through one connection on the same plan, without turning every workflow into another add-on.

Best fit

Toast is safest for enterprise buyers who want a large incumbent. AIR is better for independents who want one bundle and less fee creep.
Price your whole stack

The terms, so you can budget honestly.

Contract
The AIR subscription is month to month. Cancel any time. AIR Pay card processing is the one thing with a term: a 1-year agreement with NMI, the processor, not with AIR.
Payment processing
Your processor or ours: Square or Stripe at the rates they publish, or AIR's own processing, with AIR's fee shown in the rate calculator.
Hardware
Every iPad and iPhone you own. AIR runs on the devices the restaurant already has; buy replacements at retail and own them.
Usage
Generous, tracked AI usage. Unlimited in-app AI per location for running your restaurant, tracked in CFO > Billing. SMS, phone minutes and some third-party vendor costs are shown clearly when used.
AI phone calls
AIR: 250 AI phone calls included, then $0.50 a call. Custom pricing above that, for very busy phones and multi-location groups.
Setup
Setup is free, for as long as it takes. Future complex migrations may be quoted separately.

Pricing questions

Is direct online ordering really included?

Yes. Zero-commission online ordering on your own website, including delivery by your own drivers, on the plan. Customers can order from the AIR ordering page or from a website we enhance for you.

What happens on a busy phone month?

AIR: 250 AI phone calls included, then $0.50 a call. Multi-location or heavier usage? Talk to us about a custom quote.

Do you mark up payment processing?

Not on the pass-through. Your processor or ours: Square or Stripe at the rates they publish, or AIR's own processing, with AIR's fee shown in the rate calculator. Processing is separate from the AIR subscription, and we do not hide margin inside Square or Stripe card rates.

Can I keep OpenTable, Resy, DoorDash or Uber Eats?

Yes. AIR works beside the channels you already run. Keep them on day one, and use AIR to make your own channels stronger. DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub can also run inside AIR, through one connection that comes with the plan.

What does AIR not replace yet?

Keep your accounting and payroll software: exports to QuickBooks, Xero and payroll providers are coming. Also coming soon: Tap to Pay on iPhone, GoDaddy payments, Google Ads order reporting, Social ads, ChatGPT ads, Social posting.

What does built-in SEO mean?

We structure menu items, categories, ordering paths, schema and local restaurant data so Google can understand the site. Then we track rankings and report progress over time instead of just saying the site was optimized.
