Although not specifically mentioned as an acquisition target, one company that may be in the crosshairs of GAI is SearchCore (formerly General Cannabis), parent of Weedmaps.com. The OTCQX-traded stock has a $62.5M market cap and a growing appetite for its cannabis club search directory. With Weedmaps.com's introduction of videos and Groupon-like "Daily Deals" feature, the company is quickly becoming the portal of choice for cannabis patients and collectives alike.

Another market opportunity for GAI may lie in aggregating and consolidating the numerous "Strain Guides" that have been organically developed on the Internet. Sites such as leafly.com, medicalmarijuanastrains.com, and strainreviews.com all attempt to categorize and review the increasing number of strains that have become available as the result of cultivator breeding. The value of such information is dampened by the nonstandard presentation and variety of evaluation methods, something that could be overcome with the centralized strategy and direction that a strong parent organization like GAI could provide.
