The outcomes.

Where your data lands.

The AI pulls raw data from Metrc and organizes it into these specific views.

ACTIVE

Harvest lists

The AI identifies every harvest currently in progress. You get a clean list of active cycles to monitor.

PLANTS

Plant details

The agent pulls specific data for individual plants. You can check the status of a single unit instantly.

STATUS

Cycle updates

Your AI summarizes where each harvest stands. This helps you keep tabs on the timing of your crops.

HUMAN

Manual edits

The AI only reads data. You must still log into Metrc to change plant records or update harvest statuses.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

The AI acts as a bridge between your Metrc account and your chat interface.

  1. Identify harvests

    The agent scans your Metrc account to find all currently active harvest events.

  2. Locate plants

    Once a harvest is identified, the AI finds the specific plants associated with that cycle.

  3. Filter data

    The AI narrows down the list based on your specific questions about plant IDs or harvest names.
