In-Store Kiosk
Customers interact with the kiosk in your store. They describe what they like — strength, body, flavor, origin — and get matched to a cigar from your live inventory. Built-in promotions drive impulse buys.
AI Tobacconist matches smokers to their next favorite cigar across 12 characteristics, from a library of thousands — then shows them which store near them has it in stock today.

The Problem We Solve
Your staff can't be everywhere. Now they don't have to be.
Every cigar retailer faces the same challenge: customers walk in, feel overwhelmed by the selection, and either buy something safe or walk out. Your best staff member can guide them — but they're one person, and not every shift has them on the floor.
AI Tobacconist puts a world-class tobacconist recommendation in every customer's hands — one that knows your specific inventory, your store's promotions, and how to match 12+ cigar characteristics to their exact taste. And with the mobile app, that relationship continues long after they leave your store.
How It Works
Two products. One connected system.
The in-store kiosk and mobile app work together — giving your customers a seamless experience from the moment they walk in to the moment they're ready to come back.
Mobile App
Customers can search your inventory, find recommendations, and follow your store — from anywhere, any time.
The Recommendation Engine
Built by tobacconists. For tobacconists.
Most recommendation tools are generic. Ours was designed from the ground up by people who know cigars — matching across 12+ cigar-specific characteristics including strength, body, wrapper origin, binder, flavor profile, and more.
