Dank Detour is a free site that compares licensed adult-use dispensary prices by real driving distance. Pick where you are and how far you’ll drive; see matching products cheapest-first across New Jersey (~290 shops) and New York (~530 shops). No ads, no account, no ordering — we link out to each shop’s own menu. Built for “cheapest weed / dispensary near me,” not another ad-heavy finder like Weedmaps or Leafly.

Could you build this?
Partial The comparison UI and driving-distance logic are straightforward, but the core value depends on continuously collecting and normalizing current menus and prices from roughly 820 dispensaries, which is a data-acquisition problem that is hard to replicate.
What it would actually take: Build scrapers or partner integrations for each state's licensed dispensary menu platforms (often Dutchie, Jane or similar), normalize product and price data, and run a routing service (e.g., OSRM or a maps API) for drive-time ranking. The hard parts are keeping the scraped data fresh and legally compliant, and matching products across shops. This requires data engineering and ongoing operations, not just frontend work.
