Company
Canix
Compliance software for cannabis businesses
We make a SaaS platform that helps cannabis businesses manage compliance, track operations, and optimize their workflow from cultivation through processing and distribution. Our product handles complex regulation and documentation requirements that this industry struggles with.
We live in San Francisco and operate remotely; the company would remain based in San Francisco after YC.
San Francisco is our home and a hub for cannabis tech. We have a distributed team but keeping HQ here connects us to talent and partners important to our growth.
