Every store, every SKU, every shelf change — for your brand, across 17,000+ dispensaries in the US, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Updated hourly. No POS integration.
Cannabis brand distribution tracking is the live answer to a simple question: where is your brand on the shelf right now, and where isn't it? CannaiQ observes every dispensary menu on every major platform — Dutchie, Jane, Weedmaps, iHeartJane, Leafly, and more — and records, for every store, which of your SKUs are present, at what price, and in what quantity.
Every hour, across 17,000+ dispensaries, the shelf state gets refreshed. When a new store adds your brand, you see it. When a long-standing account drops you, you see that too — the same day, not a week later in a roll-up.
Legacy cannabis analytics tools report at the market or category level — "your brand has 34% shelf share in Arizona." That number is useful for an investor slide. It is useless for your sales rep working Phoenix on a Tuesday morning. CannaiQ reports at the store level: exactly which 189 Arizona dispensaries carry your brand, how many SKUs each one stocks, and which 47 came on or off your account list in the last 30 days.
Binary presence — "yes, this store carries your brand" — hides the real story. An account that stocks 14 of your SKUs is a very different account from one that stocks 2. CannaiQ reports SKU depth per account so your team can see which stores are full-line partners, which are test slots, and which are at risk of being pruned to zero at the next reset.
Distribution tracking only matters if it shows trajectory. CannaiQ computes net store change across rolling 30/60/90-day windows — new placements minus lost placements — and breaks down the count by state, territory, and category. If your net is negative in Colorado but positive in Arizona, your sales leadership knows where to send backup this week.
When a placement drops, CannaiQ shows you who replaced you. Not just "you're no longer on the Harvest HOC Tempe menu," but "Harvest HOC Tempe dropped your brand on Feb 19. Replaced by Cookies — 6 Flower SKUs at $55 avg. Category overlap: 100% — direct replacement." That context is the difference between a rep learning the account is gone from a monthly report and learning it from the platform in time to schedule a save call.
CannaiQ observes published dispensary menus directly. Retailers do not need to opt in, share data, or connect a POS for you to see your distribution. That means the first time you log in, every one of your existing accounts and every plausible target in the market is already in the system — no six-month onboarding, no "we'll get you full coverage once more retailers sign up."
Every brand we onboard finds at least a handful of accounts they didn't know they'd lost and a few they didn't know they'd won. Book a demo and we'll walk you through your own market live.
