BEND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dutchie — the technology platform powering cannabis commerce — announced today that Metrc Connect is live, a system Dutchie collaborated with Metrc to create and test. Metrc Connect is the next generation of traceability integration for POS vendors. Dutchie’s product, engineering, and executive leadership teams coordinated extensively with Metrc to enhance the most robust and reliable traceability system in the cannabis industry.
Metrc Connect was designed to be a leap forward in communication between Metrc integrators, like Dutchie, that is expected to improve performance and efficiency. The product also includes a developer portal where integrators like Dutchie have access to active inventory tracking, performance monitoring and deep administrative management. Dutchie’s product and engineering team worked closely with Metrc’s product and engineering team to beta test the newly designed API and developer portal to provide contextual insight into how best to serve our mutual customers.
“We developed our innovative Metrc Connect product in close coordination with Dutchie, one of our longest standing partners across all of the states that we serve,” said Michael Johnson, CEO of Metrc. “We were grateful for the benefit of their experience as the largest provider of business-side seed-to-sale technology as we developed a new set of tools designed to maximize the impact of our integration for our mutual customers.”
Metrc Connect will have a profound impact on user experience for operators. The Metrc Connect API returns results faster with more information, requiring less back-and-forth interaction between systems.
“We are grateful to Metrc for welcoming our input in developing this next generation cannabis traceability system,” said Chris Ostrowski, Dutchie’s founding CTO. “By tightening both our technical integration and our mutual teams’ collaborative efforts, Dutchie and Metrc will provide a traceability experience that’s more reliable than ever.”
Metrc Connect is currently available to all Dutchie customers in Metrc states, although individual operators will need to turn on the feature in their software admin to utilize it.
