BURLINGTON, Mass., Feb. 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Agrify Corporation (NasdaqCM:AGFY) (“Agrify” or the “Company”), a developer of highly advanced and proprietary precision hardware and software grow solutions for the indoor agriculture marketplace, today announced that it has integrated Metrc with its Agrify Insights™ software platform. This integration further strengthens Agrify’s software capabilities by adding regulatory tracking and compliance functionality to Agrify Insights’ many other core features, which allow cultivators to optimize growing environments with the goal to achieve the highest quality, consistency, and yield, all at the lowest possible cost.

Metrc is a regulatory compliance tracking and management solution used by 15 states and the District of Columbia to track cannabis from seed to sale. At launch, the Metrc integration is an offered feature in Agrify Insights and is approved for use in Massachusetts, Colorado, and Nevada through Agrify’s Agxion, Inc. subsidiary. In the coming months, Agrify plans to roll out Agrify Insights with the Metrc integration in every state that it is certified for use.

“Our cutting-edge cultivation software provides real-time monitoring, control, and management of our clients’ operations while delivering actionable insights into production optimization,” said Raymond Chang, Chief Executive Officer of Agrify. “We follow a customer-centric approach and continuously evaluate how we can best optimize our software platform to help clients achieve high levels of efficiency in their business. Compliance management software is a vital aspect of the cannabis industry, and with this new Metrc integration, we believe clients will have a complete backend solution to help them achieve operational efficiencies.”
