TerpIQ Terpene Tagger

The TerpIQ Terpene Tagger translates aromatic plant chemistry into simple sensory tags that help you observe how a product profile may express itself.

TerpIQ Tagger

Paste terpene values from a COA to translate the aromatic profile into public chemistry signals.

Top Terpenes

Select up to 6 terpenes and enter the percentage for each one.

What This Tool Does

Most cannabis lab reports include terpene percentages, but they rarely explain what those compounds mean for the experience. The TerpIQ Terpene Tagger converts terpene expression into readable plant signals. By looking at terpene influence, THC context, and total aromatic concentration, the tool generates four tags that describe an interpretive sensory profile.

Instead of interpreting terpene chemistry manually, the tagger translates complex lab data into calm chemistry language that consumers and patients can more easily understand.

How the Terpene Tagger Works

Each terpene contributes influence across several effect dimensions such as sedation, stimulation, clarity, calm, and comfort language. The tagger analyzes terpene composition together with THC context and total terpene expression. These factors are evaluated through a rule model that identifies which tags are most consistent with the chemistry of the product. The result is a simple set of sensory tags for further observation.

Why Terpene Profiles Matter

Two cannabis products can have similar THC levels but feel completely different. This difference often comes from terpene expression. Terpenes are one set of plant signals that can shape the overall experience of the product.

The TerpIQ Terpene Tagger helps translate plant chemistry into simple descriptions that can support more thoughtful product exploration.

What the Different Tags Mean

Mood

The mood tag describes how the product might affect emotional state.

  • Euphoric
  • Comforted
  • Calm
  • Balanced
  • Alert

Functional

The functional tag describes what the product might be most useful for.

  • Creative
  • Focused
  • Comfort-oriented
  • Sleepy

Body

The body tag describes how the product might feel physically.

  • Light
  • Relaxed
  • Body-heavy

Utility

The utility tag describes the context the profile may support.

  • Daytime
  • Anytime
  • Nighttime

More Detail On How The Tagger Works

A user enters the THC level, total terpene percentage, and the percentages of the dominant terpenes listed on a Certificate of Analysis. The tool analyzes how those compounds interact and produces four easy to understand tags that describe an interpretive sensory profile.

Behind the scenes, the tagger uses a terpene influence model combined with cannabinoid normalization and potency adjustments. Each terpene contributes weighted plant signals across several axes such as sedation, energy, clarity, calm, and comfort language. These signals are evaluated through a rule set that determines which tags most clearly represent the chemistry of the product.

The result is a fast way to translate complicated lab reports into chemistry language that consumers and patients can understand. Instead of trying to interpret terpene chemistry manually, the TerpIQ Terpene Tagger turns a COA into a clear description of how the product may express itself.

Where To Find Terpene Data

Most dispensaries publish COAs that include terpene percentages. These reports usually list THC percentage, total terpene percentage, individual terpene concentrations, and whether the sample passes contaminant testing. With those numbers, the tagger can interpret the profile.

How to Read a COA

The label tells part of the story. The Certificate of Analysis, or COA, fills in the rest. This section shows you how to read a cannabis lab report so you can understand the actual cannabinoid and terpene content, spot red flags, and make more confident product exploration.
