Potential Revenue Streams for our ancillary (non-plant-touching) Cannabis business

Reservations and Premium Access

User side, we want to ensure both medical and recreational customers have access to the products they use on a regular basis, so we plan on implementing a reservation feature for dispensaries to set aside those products for purchase within their store. We also are going to implement a premium subscription feature where users can gain access to consultations from Patient care specialists online, and have already spoken with a few patient care specialists at local medical dispensaries in the area and they are interested in working with us.

Listings

Dispensary and CBD store side, we are at a low cost for listing as we grow, but eventually, we will be charging every CBD store and dispensary to be listed on the app, and once we’ve grown a significant amount with our user base, we’ll charge for premium positions within our listings. We will also charge for promotions online and local events in the area, for example, herbal notes dinners here in Chicago or other cannabis events.

There are currently over 700 Cannabis Dispensaries and 1,500 CBD brands in the United States, with more brands emerging every day.

Why Plantidote?

With Plantidote we want to provide a tailored cannabis discovery experience, debunk myths and reduce stigma to bring in near market consumers, and promote underrepresented people in the cannabis industry.

What’s different about Plantidote is that we are handing our users a tailored browsing experience with the entire spectrum of cannabis products all tailored to their needs and symptoms. We are also giving them the ability to dose out their treatment and develop a schedule. It’s a great tool for self-treatment and self-regulation to fill the knowledge gap where budtenders are lacking. Everyone’s endocannabinoid systems respond differently and tracking doses and types of cannabis will be the most helpful tool in curating the perfect treatment.
