Henri helps restaurants and similar food businesses track food costs from supplier invoices. Operators upload invoice photos, PDFs or scans, and AI extracts ingredient prices for chef review. Once approved, invoice data recalculates recipe costs and food-cost percentages. Its focus is a fit for single-location chefs who want to connect supplier pricing to dishes without relying on manual spreadsheet updates; businesses looking for broader restaurant back-office workflows should compare alternatives.

The published Henri plan costs $75 per month and is billed monthly. It includes unlimited invoice uploads, AI invoice parsing for any format or supplier, chef-reviewed approval on every invoice, unlimited recipes and sub-recipes, live food-cost percentages on dishes, and custom-threshold price alerts. The service also supports spreadsheet and ingredient-price-history import, with 12-month price history and reports. Additional location accounts are available for a fee, so the listed base plan is most relevant to a single location.

The defining workflow is invoice-to-recipe costing: invoices become reviewed ingredient prices, and approved changes flow into recipe costs and dish-level food-cost percentages. That makes Henri narrower than a complete back-office suite; the described features center on costs, recipes, invoice capture and price monitoring rather than inventory or purchasing. It is cloud-based and available on the web, with email support. Chefs who need invoice-driven cost visibility and price alerts may find that scope appropriate, while operators seeking broader operational management or a multi-location plan included in the base price should look elsewhere.

Henri pros and cons

    • Custom price alerts and 12-month ingredient-price history reports
  • Where it doesn't
    • The listed plan covers one location; extra location accounts cost more
    • No inventory management or purchasing features are described
    • Web-only access and email support may not suit every operation
