You and your organization's ownership group likely already feel the need to adopt or expand your usage of artificial intelligence, but first you need a plan. Across the industry, AI is transforming critical processes and strategies, from forecasting and data reporting to labor management and marketing. The key first step to investing in this exciting area of hospitality technology is to get clear on your priorities.

To aid in this process, Nation's Restaurant News and Restaurant Business worked with nearly 500 decision makers like you to ask how AI is affecting everything from menu development to customer service. They had just as many helpful thoughts about the big picture as they had practical suggestions for specific use cases in their day-to-day operations.

Where does the return on investment come from for most operators? How are they saving their staff time, and which use cases help them increase top-line sales?

Their strategies and insights are collected within The Restaurant AI Playbook, the first report of its kind offered for free by Nation's Restaurant News and Restaurant Business.
