What Dosist does

Dosist (legal entity: GSW Creative Corporation dba dosist) is a privately held U.S. cannabis wellness company founded in 2016 and operating in California and New York. The company develops and sells dose-controlled cannabis products across two delivery platforms: a rechargeable vaporizer pen and plant-based vegan gummies. The dose pen differentiates on hardware — a microprocessor-controlled temperature system, a stainless-steel mesh coil with ceramic formulation, haptic-feedback single/double-dose activation, and USB-C charging — while the gummy line relies on nano-emulsification technology for rapid onset. Formulations are organized into the Core (bliss, sleep, calm, relief), Live Resin single-strain, and SUPER (live-rosin Sativa/Indica/Hybrid) tiers, all manufactured through a documented 12-step process with contaminant testing.

The business model is primarily direct-to-consumer through company-owned dispensaries and a delivery service in California (CA DCC license C12-0000266-LIC) and New York (NY OCM license PROC-24-000047), with no publicly disclosed pricing and no named enterprise or wholesale accounts. A secondary licensing/royalty stream for proprietary dose-control formulations and technology is offered to authorized partners. Marketing is digital-led through dosist.com, Instagram, and email, supported by earned media coverage in Time Magazine, Fast Company, and GQ. The company employs 51–100 people, has raised at least $15 million across disclosed rounds (most recently in 2020 from Turning Point Brands and West Quad Ventures), and has not announced any further institutional financing.

The customer base consists of adults 21+ in legal-use states seeking natural, targeted wellness outcomes (mood, sleep, relaxation, relief, arousal) and medical-style users needing consistent dosing; the company has not disclosed any B2B or wholesale customer concentration. Operationally, dosist is founder-led (Jason DeLand; Jeremy Green as co-creator) with a small executive team including a President/CMO and COO.

The dose pen features precise temperature control, stainless steel mesh coil technology, and single/double-dose haptic feedback, while gummies employ rapid-onset nano technology with plant-based, vegan formulations.
