Flower Scout Score

How Scoring Works

Flower Scout ranks tracked SF cannabis flower from observed menu signals, retailer spread, freshness, and lab receipt status.

What lifts a score

  • Seen recently.
  • Seen across more than one retailer.
  • More complete product details.
  • Lab receipts when they match the product.

What the lab badge means

COA Menu observed

A missing lab receipt does not remove a product from the leaderboard. It shows where Flower Scout still wants a COA or matching lab report.

Why a product can rank without a COA

A product can rank because Flower Scout has seen it in SF menu data. Lab evidence improves badge confidence, but the score is not a lab-quality claim.

When a lab badge appears

Flower Scout does not show a lab-linked badge unless the lab or report evidence matches the product. Until then, the row can still rank, and the COA indicator stays open.

How movement works

Movement compares against the previous Flower Scout snapshot. It is snapshot-based, not live inventory. No row gets paid placement or endorsement treatment.
