The Real Cost of Broken Confirmations
67% of dispensary no-shows happen because confirmation texts never sent.
At $85 average consultation value, a 10-appointment day with 3 no-shows is $255 gone before noon — every day. Multiply across six locations and that's $1,500 in daily revenue evaporating from a software configuration problem.
Every appointment triggers a verified SMS sequence — confirmation, reminder, two-way reply, arrival window. Built-in fallback to email if SMS fails. No manual follow-up. No missed sends.

Every consultation triggers a compliant transfer record. Filed to state portal before the patient leaves the room.
7-year audit-ready storage. Verification timestamps, ID type, and budtender signature — all linked to the booking record.
Compliance rules update automatically when your state changes limits, reporting windows, or form requirements.
Get flagged 72 hours before any log gap would create a compliance issue. Fix it before the inspector arrives.
"I used to wake up at 3 AM checking if yesterday's patient logs saved to METRC. With Dispense, I checked the dashboard once before bed and slept the whole night. That's not a feature — that's peace of mind."
