I make https://weedtraqr.com/ - we are operational in Washington and Oregon - and now apparently compete with MS.

The company Microsoft is working with (Agrisoft) doesn't even operate in WA, or OR yet. And has been sold like two times in the last two years (first to Surna[0] then to Kind[1])

Additionally their "partnership" is really just Agrisoft getting free Azure hosting. The headline is very click-bait.
