"BudGenius’ custom analysis software is the primary differentiator between itself and competitive testing laboratories. BudGenius combines analytical chemistry research with social web software that receives patient feedback (crowd sourcing) to determine the net medical effects of chemicals present within plant medicines. The BudGenius software engine reaches its conclusions by evaluating pre-programmed quantitative scientific trial data from (i) published studies in scientific journals and articles listing (ii) exact quantities consumed and (iii) researcher-observed effects; and then combining these calculations with qualitative data from (iv) crowd sourced patient feedback from website-submitted reviews, listing (v) relative quantity consumed and (vi) self-observed effects. The software engine “intelligence” is increased as additional data is added in real-time."
