MJ Freeway is one of the original technology names in legal cannabis. Founded in 2010, the company built the compliance backbone used by thousands of operators. The company provides licensed cannabis and hemp businesses with the tracking, reporting, and inventory tools necessary to maintain compliance, whether the business operates at one stage of the supply chain or across multiple stages. The platform is cloud-based, seed-to-sale software that follows product through the entire supply chain.
On the cultivation side, it tracks plant genetics, forecasts yields, and calculates cost of goods. Manufacturing tools manage suppliers, customers, and production workflows. Distribution features track sales and inventory in real time and connect loyalty programs and online menus. Including dispensary point-of-sale and delivery support, one system covers a licensed operation from clone to customer.
MJ Freeway has tracked more than $13 billion in cannabis sales and served over 2,000 clients across the United States and 11 additional countries. The MJ Platform is built around preventative compliance, which aims to identify issues before they become violations, alongside inventory visibility and operational tools. MJ Analytics provides reporting capabilities for operators to track cost-of-goods and sales trends.
In 2019, MJ Freeway merged with MTech Acquisition Corp to form Akerna Corp, becoming part of one of the first cannabis-technology companies to reach the public markets. This move expanded the company's reach and its suite of tools while maintaining the core seed-to-sale product. The platform serves licensed operators—cultivators, manufacturers, distributors, and retailers—who require compliance and operational tools in one system, particularly multi-state businesses seeking to avoid a patchwork of state-specific software.
MJ Freeway acts as essential B2B infrastructure, providing the systems required for professional cannabis retail. The company is a foundational cannabis-tech firm whose software has processed billions of dollars in legal sales and helped define industry compliance standards.
