WHAT IS THE VALUE OF FORESIGHT?
Founders Statement
We’re not a consulting company — we’re visionaries.
Stalwarts in a sea of charlatans, with a purpose to bring quality brands to life.
Raising debt is down almost 90% from 2021. 40% of Oklahoma licenses folded or changed hands in 2024 alone. Plant-touching and ancillary companies who survive will be the ones who recognize that this isn’t a trend — it’s a landmine-riddled bureaucracy requiring professionals to help them navigate this space.
When the most prominent law firms in the trade are a revolving door made from your gold with a one-half licensing and one-half receivership roster, why would you trust them to help you open your business? When the dust settles and you’re ready to win, what benefit would it hold for them to see you succeed?
​​
Real-time experience in a nascent market isn’t critical — it’s requisite. It beholds the most influential business tool imaginable - the opportunity to see around the bend. The number of retail licenses will cause saturation; the line between profitability and failure in Minnesota is proper due diligence.
Artificial Intelligence is forecasted to become a trillion-dollar industry by 2030. At CannManage, we have proven how automating some licensing tasks can radically reduce cost barriers to entry. ​Usonian is built on that same foundation: organized, technology-forward, and focused on creating infrastructure that democratizes the craft model, not gatekeeps it.
You won't get a second chance to do it right the first time.

Tire Meets The Road Method: How Cannabis Tech​ Should Be Made​
We’re building the ideal cannabis tech stack by doing what most founders skip — watching it hit the pavement.
Usonian Tech is born from lived operational chaos, not pitch decks.
​
We’re embedding automation into real workflows, testing in live verticals, and solving actual inefficiencies as they surface. This isn’t theory — it’s traction.
That’s how cannabis tech should be made.
Our plant-touching clients will have exclusive access to our systems, with profit-sharing opportunities for early adopters.

Mike from Duluth
"Starting a cannabis microbusiness in Minnesota is an incredible opportunity, but also a complex process. Working with Usonian has made all the difference. Their team is helping me navigate compliance, structure my business for long-term success, and stay focused on what matters most—growing exceptional cannabis and building a brand with integrity. Having a real support system and access to smart tools makes this feel achievable, even in a crowded space. I’m proud to be one of the first clients and excited to keep growing with them."
Jace from Minneapolis
"Beth made me feel comfortable while she worked on my microbusiness application from the very beginning. She explained the process with clear deliverables and deadlines, and she did exactly what she said she would do. Her AI-powered licensing services were so reasonable that I can now use the $10,000 I saved to fund the startup process. My application was perfect and had no deficiencies, which allows me to be one of the first 200 cannabis business licenses to be pre-approved in Minnesota's state history. I’m excited to keep working with her new MN-based firm, Usonian, to finally bring my 20-year dream of running a successful vertical to life."
