Overview
Headset is a business intelligence company focused on the cannabis industry. It was founded in 2015 and lists its headquarters in Seattle, Washington. The company builds its data set from receipt-level transactions collected from participating dispensaries through direct integrations with their point-of-sale systems. As of October 2026, its homepage cites more than 3,500 connected stores in the US and Canada, and Headset says its team has written integrations for more than 30 cannabis POS systems.
For dispensaries, Headset Retailer is a reporting tool offered free to cannabis retailers. It shows sales by product, category, brand and employee in real time and includes 50 prebuilt dashboards covering sales, inventory and local market trends. A Competitive Intelligence add-on shows pricing, availability and product trends at nearby dispensaries.
For brands, Bridge links a brand to sell-through and inventory data at the retail partners that carry its products. Bridge Nexus builds on that data by preparing purchase orders that, once approved, are pushed into the brand's ERP along with pricing and item data. Headset states that Bridge Nexus integrates directly with Distru.
Headset Insights is the market data product. As of October 2026, Headset says it covers 50 legal markets: 24 adult-use markets and 16 medical markets in the US, plus 10 Canadian markets. Ask Insights answers plain-language questions using Headset data. For teams that work in their own tools, Vault delivers Headset data to a Snowflake warehouse, applications or BI tools through Secure Data Sharing, and the MCP Connector links that data to AI assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT and Copilot, or any other MCP client.
On data security, Headset's compliance page presents SOC 2 Type 1 attestation details, with sections marked as last updated in June 2023. The company is venture-backed and closed a $12.1 million Series A in January 2019 from a group led by Poseidon Asset Management and AFI Capital Partners.
