Product Suite

Five products.
One platform.

Each product is independently valuable — together they create compounding data and network advantages that standalone solutions cannot replicate.

CCX

Cannabis Commodities Exchange

B2B Wholesale Trading Platform
Phase 1 — Current Build

CCX is the foundation of the ICP ecosystem — a licensed B2B marketplace enabling cannabis cultivators, distributors, processors, and retailers to trade wholesale lots in a compliant, transparent environment.

Think of it as a combination of a commodity exchange and a regulated marketplace: price discovery through offers, standardized lot descriptions, and compliance documentation baked into every transaction.

  • Lot listing with structured field templates (strain, weight, COA, harvest date, cultivator license)
  • Offer/counter-offer workflow with negotiation history
  • CQI score displayed on every lot listing
  • Business identity verification via CDAP license lookup at onboarding
  • Offline payment settlement in Phase 1 (regulatory requirement; in-app payments Phase 2+)
  • Transaction history and audit trail for compliance documentation
  • Business Management Console for managing listings, offers, and reports
UsersLicensed cultivators, distributors, processors, retailers
RevenueTransaction fee per completed trade (target: 1–2.5% of lot value)

CQI Integration: Every lot on CCX receives an automatic CQI score. The score is displayed to buyers and used as a pricing signal. Over time, CCX transaction prices feed back into CQI model training — creating a proprietary price-quality feedback loop.

CQI

Cannabis Quality Index

Proprietary Quality Scoring Engine
Phase 1 — Embedded Service

The Cannabis Quality Index is ICP's proprietary quality scoring system — a 0–100 index that provides a standardized, objective quality signal for every cannabis lot in the system. CQI is not a standalone product; it is a scoring service consumed by CCX and ICC Maps.

Phase 1 uses a weighted rule-based model with factors including cannabinoid profile (THC/CBD/terpenes), moisture content, visual inspection data, and cultivator track record. Phase 3 replaces this with a trained ML model using CCX transaction prices as ground truth.

  • Weighted multi-factor scoring: cannabinoid profile, terpene richness, moisture, visual grade, cultivator reputation
  • Normalized 0–100 index with sub-score breakdown shown to buyers
  • Score displayed on CCX lot cards and ICC Maps product menus
  • Transparent explainability — each sub-score visible to buyers
  • Phase 3: gradient boosted ML model (XGBoost/LightGBM) trained on CCX clearing prices
  • Phase 3: SHAP value explainability retained for consumer-facing breakdown
TypeInternal scoring microservice (FastAPI in Phase 3)

Data MoatCCX transaction history as training labels — no competitor has this

Strategic Value: CQI is the data asset that makes ICP defensible. Building it as an internal service rather than a third-party dependency ensures ICC owns the quality standard for the legal cannabis market.

ICC Maps

Dispensary Discovery Platform

Locator · Menus · Quality Ratings
Phase 2

ICC Maps is the consumer-facing discovery layer — a dispensary locator, live menu aggregator, and quality-rated product browser. It competes directly with Weedmaps and Leafly but has a structural advantage neither can easily replicate: CQI quality data surfaced directly on product menus.

When a consumer searches for a product on ICC Maps, they see not just the strain and price but an objective quality score — backed by lab data and supply chain history, not subjective star ratings.

  • Dispensary directory with geolocation search
  • Live menu sync via POS/IMS integration (Dutchie, Flowhub, Treez)
  • CQI scores displayed on each product listing
  • Consumer product ratings (semi-anonymous)
  • B2C channel for dispensary advertising and featured listings (revenue stream)
  • ICC Virtual Budtender integration in Phase 3
  • React Native mobile app in Phase 4
UsersCannabis consumers, dispensaries (B2C listings)
RevenueDispensary listing fees, featured placement, consumer data insights
CompetitionWeedmaps, Leafly — neither has CQI quality signal

POS TargetsDutchie (public API), Flowhub, Treez (partnership required)
ICC Social

Cannabis Community Platform

Semi-Anonymous Social for Cannabis Consumers
Phase 2

ICC Social is a semi-anonymous social platform for cannabis consumers, with C2C (user-to-user) and B2C (brand/dispensary-to-consumer) content. Pseudonymous identity is a core design principle — users build reputation without exposing personal identity, which matters in a stigmatized category.

Cannabis social content is broadly suppressed on mainstream platforms (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook enforce category restrictions on sponsored cannabis content). ICC Social provides a native environment where cannabis brands and consumers can engage without platform risk.

  • Pseudonymous profiles — no real name required
  • C2C: user posts, reviews, community discussions
  • B2C: brand pages, dispensary channels, sponsored content
  • Age verification at account creation (regulatory)
  • Integration with ICC Maps — social activity linked to product/dispensary pages
  • React Native mobile app in Phase 4
UsersCannabis consumers (C2C), brands and dispensaries (B2C)
RevenueB2C brand/dispensary subscriptions, sponsored content, premium features
DifferentiatorPseudonymous identity; cannabis-native moderation; no platform censorship risk
PhasePhase 2 — web first, mobile in Phase 4

Distribution Advantage: Cannabis brands spend heavily on influencer marketing that is constantly deplatformed. ICC Social provides stable B2C reach that incumbent social platforms cannot reliably offer.

IVB

ICC Virtual Budtender

AI Product Recommendation Engine
Phase 3

The ICC Virtual Budtender is an AI-powered product recommendation engine that replicates the expertise of a knowledgeable dispensary employee. It uses purchase history, product reviews, terpene profiles, and collaborative filtering to recommend products tailored to each consumer.

IVB is deployable in two contexts: embedded within ICC Maps as a recommendation layer, or integrated directly with dispensary POS systems as an in-store recommendation widget.

  • Personalized recommendations based on purchase history and stated preferences
  • Terpene profile matching — maps consumer effects preferences to chemical profiles
  • Collaborative filtering — learns from similar consumer behavior patterns
  • POS integration: widget deployable at checkout (Dutchie, Flowhub, Treez)
  • No raw PII transmitted — hashed consumer IDs for history linking
  • SHAP-based explanations — "because you liked X, you may enjoy Y"
UsersConsumers via ICC Maps; consumers via dispensary POS/kiosk
RevenueSaaS subscription for dispensary POS integration; engagement uplift on ICC Maps

POS TargetsDutchie, Flowhub, Treez
TechEmbeddable JS/React Native widget; FastAPI recommendation service

B2B SaaS Revenue: IVB is ICC's first direct B2B SaaS product — dispensaries pay a subscription for the POS widget. This creates a recurring revenue stream alongside the transaction-based CCX model.
