# BLAZE

> BLAZE is an AI-first cannabis retail platform for dispensaries and delivery operators. It combines point of sale, e-commerce, payments, delivery and dispatch, loyalty, marketing, and an AI budtender in a single system. BLAZE serves cannabis retail only.

BLAZE is retail software. It does not sell cultivation, grow, or distribution software. BLAZE Retail integrates with state track-and-trace systems such as Metrc and BioTrack for retail compliance reporting, which is a retail function and not a cultivation product.

Company: BLAZE Cannabis Software. Founded 2017. SOC 1 Type II and SOC 2 Type II certified. Also serves vape, CBD, and liquor retail.
