About Dosist

Dosist, established in 2016 and headquartered in Los Angeles, California, operates within the health and wellness sector with a specific focus on cannabinoid-based therapies. The company was brought to life by co-founders Gunner Winston, who now serves as CEO, and Jeremy Green. Winston's background includes a tenure as a managing partner at a private investment fund, providing him with a strong foundation in capital management and strategic growth, which has been instrumental in navigating the complex regulatory and financial landscape of the cannabis industry.

The firm has positioned itself by targeting consumers seeking predictable and controlled cannabis experiences. Its business revolves around the development and sale of dose-controlled vaporizers and, more recently, a line of CBD-based topical products. The core of their product strategy is precision; the proprietary dose-pen devices are engineered to deliver a precise 2.25mg dose with each vibration-cued inhalation, thereby addressing common consumer concerns about inconsistent dosing and unpredictable effects associated with traditional cannabis consumption methods.

Dosist's product portfolio is formula-driven, categorized by the desired mood or effect, such as 'bliss,' 'sleep,' 'calm,' 'relief,' 'arouse,' and 'passion.' This approach simplifies the purchasing decision for consumers who may be unfamiliar with cannabis terminology like strains or terpene profiles, instead allowing them to choose a product based on a specific wellness need. The company generates revenue through the direct sale of these products to consumers in markets where cannabis is legal, as well as through partnerships with licensed dispensaries.

Significant milestones for Dosist include its rebranding from 'hmbldt' in 2017, which coincided with an expansion of its product line and market presence. The company has garnered notable recognition, including being named one of Time Magazine's Best Inventions and acknowledged by Fast Company as a highly innovative company in the health sector. To navigate the intricate legal framework of the cannabis market, Dosist has expanded its footprint beyond California to other legal markets, including Florida and Canada, adapting its strategy to comply with local regulations. This includes the 2020 launch of its CBD line, allowing it to reach a broader consumer base across the United States through e-commerce.
