CigarLink is the pricing layer for the cigar industry. Vendors publish pricing once; retailers see it in their catalog automatically.
Kill the price-sheet grind. Ingest pricing from vendors in whatever format they send it, turn it into structured data, and get it into retailer catalogs automatically.
One place where every cigar vendor publishes pricing, and every cigar retailer sees it. From the single-shop owner to the large distributor.
CigarLink is a sibling to TORO Cigar POS — the point-of-sale system built specifically for tobacco retail. TORO started in 2013 from the floor of SMoKE, a cigar shop in New Orleans, to fix problems its founder Kosta kept hitting as a shop owner: inventory chaos, tax compliance, and the weekly grind of price-list updates.
CigarLink exists to kill that last one. Vendor price sheets still flow through the cigar industry as PDFs, spreadsheets, and emailed attachments. Every retailer rekeys them by hand. Every price change is another round of manual work. CigarLink ingests those sheets — from email, upload, or image capture — runs them through AI-assisted extraction, and turns them into structured pricing that flows directly into retailer catalogs.
The goal: one place where vendors publish, and every retailer sees current pricing automatically. Fewer phone calls. Fewer spreadsheets. More time running the shop.
What a vendor publishes is what every retailer sees. No outdated PDFs, no stale data, no surprise corrections three weeks later.
Every account is isolated. You review every change before it lands in your catalog. Nothing ships silently.
CigarLink's sibling, TORO Cigar POS, runs in real cigar shops. The problems CigarLink solves are the problems we keep hitting ourselves.
Whether you publish pricing or pull it into a catalog, CigarLink is built for you.
