Most chatbots wait for a question. AI Budtender guides every shopper from "just browsing" to checkout in a few taps. No blank text box, no dead ends, no waiting for staff.
An empty chat box asks the shopper to do the work. A guided flow does the work for them.
Four steps from a tap to a shortlist your shopper can buy from
Flower, pre-rolls, vapes, edibles, concentrates. One tap narrows the whole catalog.
Calm, energized, focused, sleepy, uplifted. The shopper says how they want to feel, not what chemical to look for.
Potency ranges scale to the category, and the flow only offers what your live inventory can actually fill.
A short, scored list of products. Every item is in stock and within purchase limits before it is ever shown.
The flow bends around your catalog and your rules, not the other way around
The flow never offers a choice you cannot fulfill. If sleepy gummies under $30 are sold out, that path does not appear.
Edibles add a dosage step. Chocolates skip it, because they dose flexibly. The flow fits the product, not a rigid template.
Age verification, daily purchase limits, and state rules are enforced before any recommendation appears.
Guided flow is the fast lane for shoppers who know roughly what they want. Natural conversation handles the ones with questions: "will this help me sleep?", "is this too strong for a first-timer?". Same catalog-aware agent behind both, so every answer is grounded in live inventory.
Every interaction is pointed at a purchase
Every recommendation is ranked by fit, so the best option leads.
Complementary products and add-ons surface at the right moment, not as a popup.
Shoppers can ask about any single product without losing their place.
