Turning ephemeral scarcity into verified foot traffic.
Traditional discovery platforms rely on static menus, pay-to-play digital ads and disconnected third-party delivery. Now Labs designs and operates geofenced, real-time telemetry engines that connect passionate subcultures directly to physical brick-and-mortar seats at the moment of peak batch freshness.
How it works: the 4-stage circuit
One universal loop powers both verticals—signal out, radar in, route to a physical seat, pulse the result back.
The Maker
The 45-Second Quick Signal
Head brewers, pop-up scratch kitchens and single-source hash labs broadcast limited, unreleased runs in under 45 seconds directly from the production floor.
Reaches 100% of opted-in, verified 21+ enthusiasts within a 10-mile driving radius—no paywall throttling, no algorithmic shadow-banning.
The Scout
The Concentric Proximity Radar
Consumers navigate an ambient 360-degree heads-up radar interface with 3mi, 6mi and 10mi rings.
Sorted purely by physical distance and batch depletion status—never by advertising spend.
$0 CAC
Physical-First Table Routing
The platform routes patrons directly to physical venues: taproom high-tops, food truck lines, dab-bar stools.
High-contrast acrylic QR table-tents turn walk-in traffic into registered platform nodes at zero customer acquisition cost.
The Signal
Real-Time Telemetry & The Gauge
Legacy 5-star review essays are replaced with a 2-second on-premise pulse: flavor profiles, clean wash ratings, depletion trackers.
The live countdown meter—"The Gauge" / "The Plate"—creates urgency before the batch kicks.
Two engines on one architecture
Shared telemetry core, separate compliance envelopes and separate communities.
BATCH 0™
Craft Beer · Food Trucks · Morning Roasters
Problem solved
Taprooms face slow mid-week foot traffic and perishable pilot kegs; food trucks struggle with schedule discoverability; craft enthusiasts miss one-off firkins and off-menu drops.
Core features
- Live Firkin / Pilot Tap countdown ("The Gauge")
- Mobile Scratch Kitchen & Taproom Co-Op scheduler
- Geofenced "TableTalk" room chat for seated patrons
- Three-tier compliant discovery model—pure advertising directory, zero alcohol payment processing
PRESS 0™
Solventless Hash Labs · Micro-Harvests · Lounges
Problem solved
App Store censorship bans cannabis software; static menu scrapers bury fresh 90u cold-cure drops; licensed social lounges face severe public advertising restrictions.
Core features
- Progressive Web App architecture—100% immune to Apple/Google store rejections
- "Terpene Pulse" radar tracking harvest dates, micron wash sizes and certified terpene profiles
- Real-time Dab Bar stool vacancy radar and "LoungeTalk" communal rooms
- 100% non-plant-touching, non-transactional SaaS complying with state advertising codes and 280E banking restrictions
Four defensibility moats
Distribution, workflow, density and regulation—compounding rather than competing.
Zero-CAC Physical Flywheel
Physical table tents and can-collar QR pedestals across partner venues convert seated patrons into registered users automatically.
B2B Workflow Lock-In
Venues rely on the software to coordinate tap schedules, book visiting food trucks, analyze dwell times and monitor sell-through velocity.
Corridor Liquidity Density
Expansion clusters 8–15 complementary makers along specific transit corridors rather than spraying dilute national ads.
Regulatory Armor by Design
Pure discovery decoupled from commerce. Zero plant-touching or alcohol transaction handling eliminates tied-house liabilities, shipping restrictions and processor freezes.
Clean enterprise revenue
Software subscriptions and anonymized telemetry—never product, never plant, never alcohol.
B2B SaaS Subscriptions
Predictable monthly tiers ($129–$249/mo) for Maker Pro accounts, advanced velocity gauges and multi-venue analytics.
Aggregated Sensory R&D Telemetry
Anonymized corridor velocity and flavor preference reports licensed to distributors, brand houses and suppliers.
Zero Plant / Alcohol Exposure
Standard merchant processing via Stripe. 100% compliant institutional revenue.
