About Canix
Canix is steadily widening compliance coverage across Metrc and BioTrack while tightening audit and cost visibility.
Canix is shipping along two clear threads. First, regulatory plumbing: Metrc Brands automation ahead of New York's May 15 mandate, an Unlink Transfer action that closes a compliance gap left by direct deletion, and Plant Batch activity history for audit trails. Second, BioTrack state expansion: Connecticut and New Mexico now have Transfers, the full Production Module, and Package Unrooted Clones support. The product is also getting more useful for finance teams with COGS breakdown on Source Packages.
