CannabisRegulations.ai set out to solve one of the biggest problems in the cannabis industry: navigating compliance regulations efficiently and affordably. Before this platform, operators relied on manual research, expensive legal retainers, or siloed software that didn’t scale. The opportunity was clear — but building the product wasn’t enough. The business required a full-stack partner who could design, validate, and execute product development and go-to-market strategy simultaneously.
JMK Ventures owned the engagement end-to-end, serving as fractional CTO, CMO, and COO. This meant:
- Fractional Technical Leadership → Designing and engineering the product from MVP through production.
- Fractional Product Leadership → Validating adoption models with compliance officers, attorneys, and MSOs.
- Fractional Business Leadership → Building the brand, website, messaging, content strategy, and market education framework.
- GTM Leadership → Developing pricing models, validating customer willingness-to-pay, mapping CAC/LTV, and running market fit experiments with beta users.
Our approach was iterative: MVP testing proved technical feasibility, beta testing validated usability and accuracy, and GTM testing confirmed the pricing and adoption model. This holistic leadership positioned CannabisRegulations.ai not just as a tool, but as a scalable SaaS business model.
