AI Strain Recommendation Engine — v2.1

The Sommelier

Who Never

Sleeps.

Reads your tolerance, mood, and desired effect. Maps you to the exact cultivar — terpene profile, THC-to-CBD ratio, onset time. No guesswork. No budtender roulette.

The Problem

12,000 strains.

Zero certainty.

The dispensary menu reads like a wine list in a language you never learned. "Earthy notes with a hint of pine" means nothing when you have a migraine at 2am and $60 to spend.

Budtenders recommend what's overstocked. Review sites contradict themselves. Your last three purchases did something different than the label promised. This is the paradox of choice — and it's costing you time, money, and relief.

It Works.

Four layers. Each one peeling back a level of precision that budtenders can't replicate and review sites can't model. Built on gas chromatography data, not marketing copy.

01

Intake Profiling

Your biology, not your vibe

We capture tolerance level (mapped to endocannabinoid receptor sensitivity), consumption method (bioavailability curve), desired effect window, and time-of-day context. 14 data points. Sub-30-second input.

Terpene Mapping

The entourage effect, quantified

Every cultivar in our database is mapped across 180 terpene compounds. Myrcene for sedation. Limonene for mood lift. Caryophyllene for inflammation. We weight each terpene against your effect profile using a trained gradient-boosted model.

Effect Prediction

Not what the label says. What the chemistry does.

THC-to-CBD ratio, onset time by method, and terpene synergy are run through a prediction layer trained on 2.1M anonymized consumption sessions. Output: probability scores for 12 discrete effect categories.

Feedback Loop

Gets sharper every time you use it

Post-session ratings take 8 seconds. Each rating recalibrates your personal tolerance model and improves the global prediction layer. After 3 sessions, match accuracy for your profile exceeds 97%.
