What AR menu pricing usually looks like

In this category, restaurants often face monthly hosting plus separate fees to create each 3D dish model. Agency-style builds can run into four figures. Before buying anything, ask: Is there a free way to prove AR on a few hero dishes?

BeforeTable publishes a simple ladder so independents in the US and Canada can test without a custom project quote.

Free ($0 / 3 AR dishes

Prove AR on three hero items with basic QR codes, kitchen/order tools, and email support. Start Free at beforetable.com, built to answer “does this work for my guests?” before you pay.

Starter ($20/mo / 15 dishes

Unlock 15 AR products, custom QR codes, priority AR processing, and priority email support. Built for cafés and independents past the first three dishes, still far below many peer 15-dish hosting tiers.

Growth ($200/mo / 50 dishes

Fit larger menus with 50 AR products, full menu and table QR, analytics dashboard, and live chat support. Analytics is a Growth feature, not included on Free or Starter.

Enterprise (custom)

Unlimited products, dedicated account support, custom integrations, and SLA options. Contact sales from the pricing page.

Who should pick what?

Most independents: Start Free → Starter when the full menu needs AR. Multi-location or large catalogs: Growth or Enterprise. Always use the locked USD figures above in any campaign copy.
