Why the joint app will take your cannabis and CBD lifestyle to a whole new level

Cannabis.net sat down with the creators of the hottest Jointly app that is taking the marijuana industry by storm to find out what it was like to make a cannabis app, what it was like to deal with Apple and Google, and where it was see the future of cannabis apps!

What is the Jointly app, what does it do?

The Jointly app helps cannabis users optimize their cannabis and CBD consumption so that they can achieve their wellness goals while minimizing adverse side effects.

Our app helps cannabis users in two ways: it helps them discover new products, and it helps them keep track of the 15 factors that can affect their cannabis experience so they can enjoy their ideal experience every time.

There are so many products in the modern cannabis market that if you had tried one product every day for a hundred years, there would still be thousands of products that you would not have tried. And more products are created every day.

Many of these cannabis products have different effects and side effects. A product that is perfect for enhancing your sleep may not be great for enhancing an intimate moment. How are you supposed to find out which products will work for your goals when there are too many products to try in life?

The Jointly app solves this problem by letting you see how other Jointly users rated a product based on how well it helped them achieve their wellness goals. If ten thousand Jointly users rate a product as highly effective at improving their sleep, there is a good chance it will do the same for you. And if not, the Jointly app will help you track and tweak the 15 factors that could affect your cannabis experience.

For example, if you want to improve your sleep but avoid smoking, you can filter your products so that you only see topicals, edibles or tinctures. Once you’ve found a product you like, you can turn the other factors on the dials: your dose, how much sleep you got the night before, how long you wait between cannabis sessions, etc. over time The Jointly app will show you which factors are having the greatest impact on your experience and give you insights that will enable you to enjoy your ideal cannabis experience every time.

In what ways is together better than a stretch guide or a stretch finder?

When we say Jointly is better than a strain finder, we don’t mean to disparage any of the great strain finders that helped us get where we are today. However, a typical strain finder is not enough in the modern cannabis market.

A strain finder usually provides information about the genetic heritage of a particular strain, whether it is classified as an indica, sativa, or hybrid, and anecdotal information about its psychoactive effects. More advanced strain finders often provide a snapshot of a strain’s terpene and cannabinoid content. But how accurate is this information? And does it exactly reflect the cannabis you just bought?

Cannabis is extremely sensitive to its surroundings. Environmental factors such as light, soil nutrients, moisture and more can alter the chemical makeup of the plant and alter the subjective effects it produces. A sample of Blue Dream grown in Florida may have a radically different cannabinoid and terpene composition than a sample of Blue Dream grown in Colorado.

In addition, recent research suggests that some of the information a typical stress finder provides may not be accurate. A study published in the Journal of Cannabis Research in June 2019 found that “Strains with the same name bought in different places are often not the same strain at all.”[1] Genetic studies have shown that “the genetic identity of a strain of marijuana cannot be reliably inferred from its name or reported ancestry”.[2] So what should a cannabis user do?

In order for a strain finder to be useful in the modern cannabis market, it must provide accurate information that a cannabis user can use to enhance their experience. The only way to provide meaningful information to a cannabis user is to provide information about each individual product.

The Jointly app allows users to rate any legal cannabis product. When looking for a cannabis product you will not find a general snapshot of Blue Dream from a sample from many years ago, but the exact product you are looking for as well as real user reviews for that product.

What Are The 15 Trackable Factors The Jointly App For Cannabis Users Follows?

The fifteen factors are:

1. Your wellness goals.

2. Your product type (vape oil, flower, tincture, etc.)

3. The specific product you are using.

4. Your method of ingestion (inhalation, oral ingestion, sublingual ingestion.)

5. Your dose.

6. How long do you wait between doses.

7. Your fluid balance.

8. It doesn’t matter whether your stomach is full or empty.

9. It doesn’t matter whether you exercised before, during, or after using cannabis.

10. How much sleep did you have the night before.

11. The quality of your diet.

12. Whether you ate “accompanying food” that day.

13. Your environment or physical environment.

14. The people you are with when you use cannabis.

15. Your unique endocannabinoid system.

How did you come up with the idea for the app and when did you start working?

Our co-founder and CEO David Kooi came up with the idea for the app when he noticed that his cannabis experiences were inconsistent. Sometimes he would have something edible and it would relieve mild everyday anxiety, but sometimes it would make him drowsy or even worsen his anxiety.

He wanted to build something that would give him a more predictable cannabis experience. He realized that there had to be factors that changed his experience. He began carefully tracking his sleep, diet, and the products he used. In his research, he discovered forums and academic articles discussing other factors that could affect a cannabis user’s experience. He also started tracking these factors. As he tracked these factors, he began to see results and have better cannabis experiences.

During this process, David reconnected with Jointly co-founder Eric Gutshall, a former colleague. Together they decided to start a new business venture in the cannabis world. They wanted something that was wellness focused and would allow users to interact with the company. They pondered the idea of ​​creating a vape pen with a QR code that would allow users to upload reviews of each cartridge. After whirling around various ideas, they decided to turn Dave’s personal project into a business. Together was born, and the app was launched in April 2020.

What mistake did you make on your path that you would like to change?

Fortunately, all of our mistakes have been positive learning experiences that have helped us refine our strategy so that we would not change any of them.

What advice would you give today to someone trying to break into the cannabis space or start a cannabis-based business?

Find the niche where you can make the most impact. We wanted to work in cannabis wellness and offer something that would allow people to take action to improve their health and wellbeing through cannabis.

What are your favorite varieties and why?

Blue Dream should be at the top of the list. Many samples of Blue Dream produce a cerebral, clear high that is quite pleasant. For a nightcap, you can’t go wrong with Blackberry Kush. Not only are the buds a dark, rich purple color, but they also have a pleasantly fruity taste and usually have enough myrcene to produce a “couch lock”.

How can someone download the app?

The Jointly app can be downloaded from the App Store or the Google Play Store.

If someone has questions or wants to get in touch, what is the best way to reach them? E-mail? Social media?

You can contact us at hello@jointlybetter.com or via our Instagram @jointlybetter.

What are the future plans for the app and what excites you most about the future of marijuana legalization?

We’re very excited about our new project that will bring our product database to the web and allow people to search for products without downloading the app. And with regards to marijuana legalization, we’re excited about the idea that more people are discovering targeted cannabis use and improving their health and wellbeing with herbal medicine.
