In what seems the natural next step to legalized pot, a Colorado company has brought forward a new vending machine that cuts out the middle man for marijuana sales and gives buyers a speedier, after-hours means of purchasing the drug.

It’s called the Zazz machine, and it’s produced by American Green, a company run by Stephen Shearin, United Press International reported. It made its debut at a dispensary in Eagle-Vail, Colo., at the Herbal Elements shop. The dispensary, in turn, set up the machine outside a local barbecue restaurant in Avon, UPI said.

“We’re looking forward to using the Zazz machine to easily track all this inventory … we’re going to eliminate the middle man,” said Herbal Elements owner Greg Honan, UPI reported. “It’ll go straight from the bud-tender right into our machine. There’s no room for theft by patients, employees … there’s no way to lose track of the inventory.”
