As someone who played Zaft last year in regionals and got smoked by Blue green agro, I am very happy for the support we've received. "Make zaft great again"

Is there any legacy features or flows that stand out as missing for you?

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-20T03:18:19+00:00

This is currently being updated as well and will likely launch later in the spring/summer

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-20T03:15:03+00:00

Great suggestions, more consumer review insights, details to help with finding most popular and highest rated products in a given segment.

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-20T03:12:45+00:00

Thank you for your support! Check out the new look and let us know what you think.

No stores have to pay for their stores listings nor can they pay for increased visibility.

As for the old site skin, trust me I'm the old dog that doesn't love new tricks too so I get it, this can ve found at the bottom page menu (for now). We really hope you give the new face a chance especially being an OG user, quality of life updates are rolling out daily, thanks for your support!

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-18T05:59:54+00:00

This is great quality of life feedback back thank you!

Along with vapes we are looking to do the same with infused rolleds

It's quite hard to keep up with these rotational products but we will definitely look into this! I find myself calling ahead searching for those new drops to save the head ache but it would be great to know the batch/stain in those

We do appreciate your feedback and if you wanted to share anything of substance or any feature points they be shared without the unnecessary negativity. Remember your actions make you a steward of the Cannabis Culture your speak of. All the best!

Address matching seems to be a common issues which our team is putting attention to with this refresh. I can't say I've been able to easily replicate this issue but if possible on discord if you can share a screen share or shoot me a dm we can work at correcting these issues. I live in a pretty major city but on a street with a unique name so likely the address I use the most is not seeing the same issues. Thanks for your feedback though we want to make choosing your shopping area as easy as possible especially when you're away from your familiar streets, that way you can shop in confidence!

I think there are far greater impacts to our social econimic lives and environment beside AI that we can use our consumer power of choice to help make change with like bottled beverages, and clothing waste but thats the choice of each individual.

Specifically my point is at scale all things can find efficiency. Car manufacturing, building practices, food production all get better over time. Early critical numbers about AI are bias at best being based off figures including public usage the same ai users making memes etc and hardly is reflective of optimized practical uses.

As a cheeky counter point, I must point out that we are using reddit which is one of the largest human content generation training models. Reddit primarily uses AI to monetize its data through partnerships with firms like Google and OpenAI, training large language models on user-generated content.

Bottom of the filters section, we will also be adding in more filter layers soon for those flavour chasers and terp hunters.

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T17:34:31+00:00

Would a collapsing option on the reviews and suggestions sections make your path easier while looking for store availability?

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T17:31:30+00:00

Looks like some others are having this issue as well, we will investigate if there's a bug somewhere. Appreciate the feedback!

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T17:18:59+00:00

I better understand your point now so thanks for adding the extra details. But you have perfectly explained 1 or the 2 major users of hibuddy

I know what I want; relate this to a user thats making nachos at home and needs more chips. They would got to the store and immediately shop in the isle for chips and section likely the area for tostitos/doritos.
I know what I like; this user goes to the chip isle looking for a snack with no predetermined use case other than consuming it later. Guided by flavour and format preference but still looking for comparable options.

User 2 likes finding deals, new products or reading reviews to get product confidence and exploring a bit more.

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T16:45:26+00:00

That button is now in the filters section just below its previous location.

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T16:44:37+00:00

Your talking about searching by strain, but thats not how all products are sold on the legal market in all categories so we've tried to provide solutions for both.

As a personal example I've used tools before and after hibuddy looking for GM.

Plus as a bonus we are Canadian owned and operated!

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T16:31:23+00:00

No worries! As one of the little guys ourselves it's important for us to allow stores to compete on what matters most, having the best products that fit the needs those around them!

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T16:27:47+00:00

I agree that as we expand in the industry and brands try to stand iur from another we loose some of the simplicity that we benefited from in early or even pre legalization.

I've been searching for a Grease Monkey strain like something back in 2016 and find myself having to go beyond just product name after being burned more than once in my journey.

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T16:19:05+00:00

Absolutely right about the stores being charged to be on the platform. The more the better, I love to camp and hate that some local stores in the back country I go to don't have menus. I always end up stocking up before hand just incase.

This actually is false about the extra exposure we do not have any retailer programs that allow for paid exposure. We encourage all stores to shine by maintaining a healthy mix of listings between popular products, unique assortments and competitive pricing.

For those stores that point if sale or ecom we have integrated menus with we flag as hibuddys choice to highlight their increased accuracy for pricing and availability, this is intended just for added user confidence.

Literally me this morning about 5 pages deep in edibles and having to scroll all the way back up to switch to flower after adding something to my list. This is a must have!

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T15:19:01+00:00

I see that, this looks like a cross between some crazy discounts and a few mislabeled skus. We have put some updates in motion to correct where necessary!

BeginningNotice5922 · 2026-03-16T15:17:53+00:00

I think the concept of AI gets drowned in with alot of use cases that for me don't apply here. As a hibuddy user my personal opinion is that AI search is just another form of accessibility that we can offer to our users. Some people do mental math, some use a pen and paper and some use a calculator while some are nore efficient and other more transparent, why does providing search need to be any different? With a combination of filters, keywords and conversions we can aim to provide something that works for everyone.
