For several months now, our customers have been putting Navigator to work. Navigator is our decision intelligence platform — powered by the restaurant ontology in which we model customers’ data, proven analytical models that produce accurate performance and demand metrics, and AI agents, trained on restaurant industry knowledge, that do the data labor.

Our customers use Navigator to help them understand their businesses more deeply and make better decisions. Watching them work has shaped this release, including 100+ improvements to the performance, speed, and experience of the app.

In addition to Navigator becoming faster and easier to use, with today's release, we are excited to introduce the new SignalFlare experience.

The new SignalFlare experience

The restaurant brands that come to SignalFlare are facing decisions worth millions — pricing and revenue management, menu engineering, demand generation, market intelligence, franchise engagement — and they've learned that when the stakes are that high, the AI behind the decision can't afford to guess.

Our leadership spent thirty years using data to drive decisions for the industry's top chains. As a result, we have borne witness to the most pervasive issues holding restaurant companies back from making great decisions consistently.

Across this industry, files, reports, and decisions sit scattered throughout inboxes, disparate dashboards, and knowledge bases that lack contextual memory or meaning on their own. Consultants deliver decision support and then leave with the IP. Data silos make data-driven decision-making a tedious process. Most software platforms are point solutions with little external awareness of other parts of the business.

These issues cause decision bottlenecks that cost the industry billions, but it doesn't have to work that way anymore.

With SignalFlare, decision intelligence is delivered and managed in one workspace where data is given meaning, AI agents collaborate with your team, and everything your team learns is remembered.

Your reports live in Navigator. Your files live in Navigator. Your data and decisions are modeled in the restaurant ontology, so Navigator understands it the way your company does — when anyone on your team works with the AI, it already knows your business and what you mean by check average, by comp, by core item. Your data stays yours, protected in your own workspace.

And we built Navigator to be a collaborative space, so our experts are in there with you. We don't email decks. We work in your Projects, in conversations your team can open and read, on the decision actually in front of you.

Then it compounds. The more your team works in Navigator, the more it knows about your business. Reopen a pricing decision from three months ago and the reasoning is still attached. Add someone new to the team and they inherit what the company has figured out instead of rebuilding it. The memory builds to power your next decision and the next.

Navigator is ready for you

We built Navigator on a conviction: the future of the restaurant business is machines and humans collaborating to create more value. Our pricing work shows what that looks like. Combined with our next-generation pricing offering, which has achieved 90% flow-through, there has never been a more effective or efficient way to distribute pricing recommendations throughout a franchised restaurant system.

And that's just the beginning. Our belief is that together, experts on our team and experts on our customers' teams can work with AI to unlock more insights, work more efficiently, and make better decisions.

You don't need a perfect data stack to begin; you need a question.

Start with what you have. Upload a product mix report, a competitor's menu, an industry analysis. Navigator produces insights from day one, no integration required. When you're ready, we connect your data — POS, location, competitive, economic — and model it in the restaurant ontology, and your team starts querying across all of it in natural language. From there it compounds: Navigator learns your metrics, your rules, your vocabulary, and the intelligence grows with you.

Our team works alongside yours from the first conversation to full deployment.

Introducing our July 2026 release: a single unified experience for your decisions and your partnership with SignalFlare.
