What this signal is
—and what it isn't.

Price Pulse is a public reference signal, not a personalised menu analysis.

Data Source

Source type: public_menu_pricing. Based on the official MenuGauge AI CA-Vancouver FastCasual template (v3.1) and reviewed against currently posted Vancouver menus including Tractor Foods, Field & Social, Nando's Canada, and Disco Cheetah. Not live market scraping.

Coverage

City: Vancouver (CA-Vancouver)
Industry: Fast Casual
Currency: CAD
Period: March 2026

Competitor Range Basis

The page shows a single reference range, not p25, p50, or p75. It is designed to answer one question quickly: what to review this month.

Suggested Price Logic

Suggested prices are set at or above current pricing only. MenuGauge AI applies psychological price rounding for CAD price points. No downward adjustments are suggested.

Profit Gain Formula

This public page uses a representative example inside the flagged band: (C$16.95 − C$14.95) × 100 = C$200. Treat it as a directional estimate, not a personalised forecast.

Update Cadence

Price Pulse is updated monthly. This page reflects March 2026. The page is maintained by the Founder and may be recalibrated as better market inputs become available.
