Cannabis marketing tech firm Fyllo has acquired cannabis regulatory tech firm CannaRegs for an undisclosed amount. CannaRegs distinguished itself for the company’s ability to drill down into local cannabis regulations, which can differ between the municipality, county and state levels of oversite.

As part of the acquisition, Amanda Ostrowitz, CannaRegs’ founder and CEO, will join Fyllo as its Chief Strategy Officer to develop a global strategy focused on supporting existing and new customer relationships. She will be reporting to CEO Chad Bronstein. Fyllo said it will augment CannaRegs’ user interface and integrate CannaRegs data into its platform to enhance its compliance solutions for brands and publishers.

“The cannabis space is exploding and expected to grow to more than $50 billion annually over the next five years. Digital advertising is the industry’s clear pathway to growth, and brands need to have confidence that their ad creatives are not only reaching the right audiences but also meeting state-by-state and market-by-market compliance requirements,” said Chad Bronstein, founder, and CEO of Fyllo. “CannaRegs has become the go-to-market leader for supplying the cannabis industry with reliable compliance data. Combined with our technology, we are able to provide actionable information at scale. This acquisition helps us gain a significant competitive advantage to grow Fyllo, and by joining forces with the most seasoned and knowledgeable cannabis compliance experts, it will help generate more revenue opportunities for our clients.”

While the value of the deal wasn’t disclosed, it comes on the heels of Fyllo raising $18 million to accelerate the company’s growth and expand access to advertising-compliant solutions for the cannabis industry. Fyllo recently named Clive Sirkin, the former chief growth officer of Kellogg and former CMO of Kimberly-Clark, and Katie Ford, head of global brands at Twitter, to its board.

Fyllo said it has developed a full suite of cannabis advertising solutions for brands and online publishers powered by CannaBrain, an AI engine that ingests and interrogates billions of data points, allowing brands to safely build and execute advertising campaigns while also enabling publishers to create and monetize compliant ad inventory.

“The complex nature of cannabis regulations can be challenging for brands looking to confidently enter the fast-moving space. To stay ahead of the curve, companies need to have the wherewithal to know how to operate within state and local regulatory structures,” said Amanda Ostrowitz, founder and CEO of CannaRegs. “In a short period of time, Fyllo has emerged as an essential platform for publishers and cannabis companies to build creative campaigns in a safe and compliant way. By teaming up with Fyllo, we have the chance to build a truly remarkable brand that can disrupt the entire industry.”

Ostrowitz has made a name for herself over the past five years as she has built a team that has accomplished something many were unable to do and that track the myriad of cannabis regulatory changes. Drilling down to some of the smallest towns and tracking local meetings. Her company’s data is used by law firms, real estate professionals and cannabis companies as they try to stay compliant in a constantly changing landscape.

Fyllo said it will onboard over 150 CannaRegs customers, which will get the same benefits of state and local legal understanding in near real-time, along with an enhanced CannaRegs user interface. CannaRegs’ 30 employees will continue to operate out of its Denver offices.
