Wikileaf Technologies is a Seattle business providing data services to the cannabis industry and information to consumers. It was founded in Seattle's South Lake Union area in 2014 by Dan Nelson.[1][2] By 2016, with seven employees, it was acquired by Nesta, a Canadian fund,[3] and through a reverse takeover of an existing Canadian company, it became listed on the Canadian stock exchange in late 2019.[4] The company provides price indexes and cannabis strain reviews and information.[4] The company operates a consumer cannabis dispensary price guide both for adult-use states like California, and medical use-only states like Oklahoma.[5][1]
