Regulated retail
A regulated store, front to back: live menus, an ad wall and a checkout that checks itself
This is retail software for a store that answers to a state regulator, shown on a fictional cannabis shop. The screens on the wall are live menus fed by inventory, and on the shop's timer every screen plays the same ad at once. At the counter, checkout decides the rules from who is buying, checks the ID, validates a medical card, prices every tax from the law with its citation and queues the sale for the state report. Behind it, the owner runs inventory, the screens, delivery and staff from one system, alone if they have to. It runs on Bloom, the retail platform we built.
A short scripted demo. The people and companies in it are fictional; nothing is real data, a real camera or a real call.
Built for the owner who does it all
Plenty of regulated shops are run by one person who also keeps the books and makes the deliveries. So one person can run every part of this, and a second person is required only where the state says so.
The screens pay for themselves
The wall of menu screens is also an ad wall the shop controls, so the screens that tell customers what is on the shelf can earn their keep between menus.
How it works
Every screen is a live menu
The menu boards read straight from inventory: price, potency and what is left. When the last one sells, it leaves the wall by itself.
Then the whole wall plays one ad
On the shop's timer, every screen switches to the same ad at once, then back to the menus. The shop decides whose ads run and how often, and required warnings play in the loop.
A checkout that checks itself
Who is buying sets the rules: adult-use, medical patient or caregiver. Age comes from the ID, and the ID number, name and photo are never stored. A medical card is validated before the medical price applies.
Taxes from the law, with the reason on every line
Each tax line names the statute it comes from. A registered patient with a validated card is not charged the state and local cannabis taxes.
Every sale on its way to the state
The receipt prints and the sale is queued for the state report on its own, and the owner sees exactly which sales are waiting.
Who it is for
- Cannabis retailers and other state-regulated shops
- Owners who run the counter, the books and the deliveries themselves
- Multi-location operators who need every store to follow its own state's rules

Questions people ask
Is the software in the demo real?
Yes. The tour shows real screens from Bloom, our retail platform, running a private sandbox that can never reach a state system. The store, its products and its people are fictional, and the store photos were generated for the demo.
How does it handle medical patients?
A patient or caregiver sale cannot go through without a validated card for that sale. Once the card checks out, the patient's purchase limits apply and the taxes the state exempts patients from are not charged.
Can it follow a different state's rules?
The rules come from a database of each state's published regulations, with a citation on every one. A new state is a new set of rules, reviewed and approved before it switches on, not a rewrite.
