PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Marijuana legalization requires a new drug testing solution

The HOUND® CANNABIS BREATHALYZER ensures SAFETY + FAIRNESS™ by providing a fair breath test
Conventional marijuana tests (blood, urine, oral fluid, and hair) cannot differentiate between an individual who smoked shortly before work and therefore may be impaired versus someone who used responsibly over the weekend.

Employers
Want to maintain a safe work environment while retaining valuable employees who use marijuana responsibly outside of work.

Law Enforcement
Want to avoid possible wrongful arrests caused by THC tests like saliva or blood that detect historic use versus very recent use.

Legislators
Need breath tests to support current laws, workplace policies, and make roads safer while preventing unfair arrests of responsible users.

Employees
May choose to legally use marijuana outside of work, but risk job loss because of the inability of conventional tests to determine recent use.

Drivers
May choose to legally use marijuana long before driving, but face the possibility of wrongful DUI convictions if outdated testing methods are used.

Legal Marijuana Advocates
Worry unfair arrest and firing of responsible marijuana users caused by residual THC in saliva, blood, and urine.
No other technology can detect only recent cannabis use. How does it work?

The period of time that marijuana causes impairment has been identified by NHTSA1 and global researchers as just a few hours after use2
Oral fluid, blood, urine, and hair THC tests can all cause positive results long after impairment subsides – sometimes for an additional day or 2, but sometimes up to 3 months after use.

Identifying recent cannabis use in breath requires measuring parts per trillion, which would be like finding 1 person in the population of 142 earths combined
This level of ultra-sensitivity is necessary in order to determine whether someone used cannabis recently enough that they may be within the peak impairment window.

The HOUND® CANNABIS BREATHALYZER is the only portable and highly sensitive solution that differentiates between the person who smoked cannabis legally and responsibly at a BBQ on Friday night, versus their colleague who smoked Monday morning on the way to work.

Minimal training required
Attach, breathe, and process – just a few easy steps and employers can collect a lab-quality breath sample.

Fast results on location
The handheld automatically and simultaneously captures 2 breath samples – one for immediate on-site processing and one for lab confirmation if required.

Secure and encrypted data
Cartridges are tamper-evident and store encrypted test results by a unique ID.

Non-invasive and hygienic
Individually packaged, single-use cartridges ensure reliable results and a sanitary process.

Ultra-sensitive measurement
1 billion times more sensitive than an alcohol breathalyzer, the ultra-sensitive technology measures recent cannabis use.

Portable and durable
The carrying case, built to withstand everyday use, contains everything needed for processing results on-location.
