The History of Distru Developing Integrations
Distru has been building powerful partnerships and integrations with cannabis tech companies since Day 1.
One of Distru's early wins was building a LIVE two-way integration with Metrc, the platform that cannabis businesses in most states are required to use for track and trace compliance reporting.
With this integration, our software ensures that transferring information from Distru to Metrc is a breeze, without the need to double enter data. Our Metrc integration helps cannabis businesses check all the boxes for state regulations without adding extra hours of work to their day.
Since then, Distru has continued teaming up with other major cannabis tech companies, such as Trym, LeafLink, Dutchie, Treez, and BLAZE. These alliances result in integrations that address many of the issues that cannabis businesses face, from managing post harvest processes to streamlining retail intake for dispensaries.
Part of our strength is remaining flexible and agile in order to adapt to the cannabis industry’s needs. We’ve demonstrated our commitment to making our software a connected solution for cannabis businesses of all sizes.
How Cannabis Software Integrations Can Transform Your Day-to-Day Operations
Using cannabis software solutions as part of your day-to-day operations can change how your business runs for the better. It makes things smoother, optimizes how work gets done, and in the end, helps your business grow and become more profitable.
Types of Cannabis Tech Companies
If you're running a cannabis business and want to give it a tech boost, you'll have many solutions to choose from. It's super important to understand the different types of cannabis tech companies out there. So, let's break down some of the main you may come across:
Cultivation Technology Providers
These cannabis tech companies focus on creating solutions that will help you grow your plants better, faster, and more efficiently. If you're cultivating cannabis, these companies will provide real time grow analytics, cultivation sensor data, and nutrient management solutions you'll need to grow beautiful and high-quality flowers, for example.
Basically, they're here to help you get the most out of your crops.
Seed-to-Sale Software Providers
As their name suggests, these companies build platforms that can help you track your cannabis products through the supply chain every step of the way (from seed to sale).
Seed to sale software providers create solutions that can help you stay on top of inventory management and reporting, which is essential for regulatory compliance. With these tools, you can keep track of your cannabis products from the moment you plant the seed to the moment it's sold.
Dispensary Management Platforms
The most commonly used platform for dispensary management is a cannabis point of sale (POS) system. Running your dispensary is a breeze when you use a cannabis POS. These solutions are equipped with features and integrations that will facilitate your day-to-day operations, such as:
- B2C menus and order tracking
- Tools for inventory management
- Integrations with customer relationship management (CRM) software
- Features designed for compliance
- Reporting and analytics
Utilizing a cannabis POS system is vital for a dispensary's success. This is why Distru has built integrations with the major cannabis POS systems in order to simplify the retail intake process for our customers.
Delivery and E-commerce Platforms
These cannabis tech companies have one goal: making online ordering and delivery as easy as possible for your customers.
Their solutions often let customers handle the entire buying process on your website by allowing them to browse products to choose their favorite ones on just one page, place orders online, and even schedule deliveries.
With these companies' tools, buying cannabis can be as convenient, quick, and easy as ordering pizza!
Regulatory Compliance Solutions
It's no secret that the cannabis industry is highly regulated. This has created the need for regulatory compliance software tailored specifically for tracking and tracing cannabis.
Cannabis compliance software helps you manage licenses and permits, track your operations from seed to sale, report on your activities in real time, document everything you may need to prove you're compliant, and prepare to pass audits with flying colors.
Ancillary Service Providers
Do you need extra support to run your business? That's what these cannabis tech companies offer!
These solutions are built to aid with those tasks that don't require touching the plant. This includes marketing, payment processing, security, logistics, and consulting services. Although they won't plant your cannabis for you, these tools will act as the support system for the entire cannabis ecosystem.
Do you see how many cannabis software companies are there? Perhaps you won't need them all, but understanding the different types and what they offer will equip you with the necessary information to make smart choices about your tech arsenal. That means you'll be able to pick the solutions that can really help you grow your business in the fast-paced cannabis world.
