About Terpli

Now a proud part of AIQ

In June 2025, Terpli was acquired by AIQ, combining the power of AI-driven product guidance with the leading platform for cannabis marketing, loyalty, and ecommerce.

Together, we’re building a smarter, more personalized retail experience for cannabis consumers everywhere.

Our Origin

Terpli was created to solve a common challenge: helping people find the right cannabis products for their unique needs. By combining consumer preferences, cannabinoid profiles, terpene data, and real-time feedback, we developed an intelligent “virtual budtender” that personalizes the shopping experience, whether in-store or online.

Since launch, Terpli has powered millions of product recommendations across dispensaries in over 20 states and provinces, helping retailers boost conversions and connect customers with the products they’re most likely to love.

What’s Next

As part of AIQ, Terpli’s recommendation engine is now integrated into a broader ecosystem that includes advanced marketing tools, loyalty programs, ecommerce, and analytics, giving retailers a more complete, data-driven toolkit to grow their business.

We’re still the same team, focused on product discovery and consumer education, now with even more support behind us.
