Toast deployed an AI Invoice Scanning feature in beta for Toast Retail customers that reads supplier invoices—uploaded as photos or scans—and automatically extracts product and pricing information into Toast's inventory receiving workflows, reducing the need for manual line-by-line data entry.

AI Invoice Scanning was announced in January 2026 and confirmed as generally available in beta as of the Spring 2026 release (May 2026). Operators photograph or upload a supplier invoice via the Toast Now app or Toast Web; the AI extracts item quantities, costs, and other invoice details and populates them into Toast's receiving workflow for operator review and confirmation. Toast's official support documentation confirms the feature is live. According to Toast's own announcement, the tool also helps operators catch supplier price changes before products reach the shelf.
