502Genius is a subscription-based data and analytics platform focused on the Washington cannabis market. It draws on the state's full traceability record to present information on statewide sales, licensees, brands, strains, labs, production, and county-level activity. Users can browse market overviews, leaderboards, pricing trends, product categories, and a directory of licensees, as well as maintain a watchlist and compare licensees side by side. Access to most features requires a paid subscription priced at a flat $99 per month, though a free account offers limited market page access.
A free account allows users to browse public business pages and statewide headline stats without needing to log in. Even without an account, users can view statewide retail and wholesale trend charts, top producers and retailers each month, and the full licensee directory with prior-month sales. Creating a free account also grants access to the license map of every location and a 7-day free trial of full access with no card required.
The platform offers strain, lab, transfer, and production analytics alongside transaction-grain wholesale and retail ledgers. Users can see what is moving, how products test, what is being planted and harvested, and access a full licensee directory with prior-month sales. The system also allows users to compare licensees side by side and maintain a watchlist to receive email notifications when numbers update.
The platform is designed for producers and processors to find retailers buying their category but not their product, price against market rates, and catch accounts quietly shrinking. Retailers can see what sells statewide before committing shelf space, compare themselves against stores of similar size, and find suppliers whose products move. Brokers, investors, and anyone underwriting a license purchase can access real revenue history instead of a seller's spreadsheet.
The platform integrates with AI agents by allowing users to connect Claude, ChatGPT, or Codex to their account using MCP. This enables the AI assistant to read everything in the app, including transaction ledgers, every customer and supplier, and the full directory with contacts. This feature is exclusive to the Pro plan at $149 per month.
The platform provides a county heatmap and a license map that plots every current license the state has a location for. Users can filter by type or status and zoom into clusters to see who is working a corridor before driving it. The license map includes retailers, producers, processors, and labs, and can be filtered to show only specific statuses or types.
The platform includes a watchlist feature that allows users to follow specific businesses and receive an email each month when the numbers update. It also offers a free trial of full access with no card required for new users. The subscription runs monthly until cancelled, with access continuing through the end of the current billing period.
The platform offers a 14-day money-back guarantee on every charge, allowing users to request a full refund within 14 days of the transaction. Refunds are issued in full to the original payment method and typically appear within 5–10 business days. Cancellation can be done at any time from the account page or by emailing support, stopping all future charges while access continues through the end of the current billing period.
The platform provides a free 7-day trial of full access with no card required using the code winter26. The Standard plan is $99 per month, while the Pro plan is $149 per month. Payments are handled by Paddle, the merchant of record, and subscriptions renew monthly until cancelled.

The fact that the data is sourced directly from public records gives it a level of credibility that other platforms lack. While the interface might feel a bit dry compared to modern SaaS products, the depth of information justifies the subscription cost for anyone who needs accurate revenue history or wholesale-to-retail markups.
The platform offers a vast amount of information on licensees, strains, and sales history, which is impressive. However, navigating the various sections like Labs & Testing or Production & Harvests takes some time to understand. The interface seems functional but lacks immediate clarity on how to filter specific data points effectively. While the raw data is valuable, the presentation could be more intuitive for new users who are not already familiar with the Washington cannabis market structure.
What stands out most is that everything is built directly from Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board public records, so you know the numbers are grounded in actual data rather than estimates or models. I have been using this to track sales trends across different counties and the county-by-county sales map is incredibly useful for visualizing where the money is moving. You can click through to see specific transactions, which gives a level of detail that is rare in market intelligence tools. It is refreshing that there is no private feed or POS integration required; you just get access to the cleaned-up public record. Being able to download spreadsheets from any table is a huge plus for my own analysis. I also like that I can set up watchlists to get email updates when numbers change, which keeps me informed without having to manually check the site every single day.
The one flat fee structure makes budgeting simple, though I wonder if there are any annual discounts available for long-term users.
I appreciate how easy it is to jump into the wholesale and retail data without a steep learning curve. The flat monthly fee feels fair for what you get, especially since I can just log in and start searching for licensees right away.
