Today, startup Jane Technologies launched the cannabis industry’s first end-to-end online marketplace, where customers can find and order preferred products available in real-time at local dispensaries. The difference between Jane and other marketplaces online is notable. The platform keeps tabs on a dispensary’s supply through a point-of-sale system and allows consumers to search their site for items in real-time. You can compare prices, products and services with other dispensaries in their area, and reserve preferred items for in-store pickup or delivery.
When a consumer wants to read reviews on a product, Jane has made an effort to combat a growing problem of fake product reviews and only allows customers who have used the platform to provide feedback. Consumers are given free access to one of the industry’s largest cannabis product databases and can filter by location, price, and popularity. The company is also trying to assist dispensaries that are tired of crowded listings, manual menus, and losing customers with this point-of-sale platform to help boost sales. Jane Technologies cofounders include graduates from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and is led by former Army captain and West Point graduate Socrates Rosenfeld. Jane is currently partnering with dispensaries in Santa Cruz and rapidly expanding into additional California, Colorado, and Boston markets.
