Novi GLP-1 Review
Telehealth platform for compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with month-to-month billing, six named clinicians on staff, and a 3-minute pre-approval quiz. Novi emphasizes 'all-in transparent' pricing — medication, supplies, unlimited clinician check-ins, dose adjustments, and weight-loss coaching are bundled with no add-on fees. Standard pricing is $174/mo semaglutide and $283/mo tirzepatide; promotional pricing on the offer landing drops to $99-$133/mo semaglutide and $149-$166/mo tirzepatide with $200 off advertised.
Summarize this article with
Novi scores 7.8/10 in our independent review, starting at $133/mo for compounded GLP-1 medications. Novi sits in the upper-mid tier of compounded GLP-1 telehealth. The platform's strongest credentials are six named clinicians (three MDs and three NPs), unlimited included check-ins and coaching, and month-to-month billing with no commitment — better flexibility than Tonik's 3-month minimum or Calibrate's 3-month upfront commit.
What makes it different: Combination of six named clinicians (most compounded-only platforms disclose zero or one), month-to-month billing with no commitment, and aggressive promotional pricing as low as $99/mo on the offer landing — a flexibility-and-headcount profile most direct competitors at this price tier do not match.
At a glance
- Cash-pay patients who want compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide on month-to-month billing with no commitment penalty
- Users who specifically want to see the names of their prescribing clinicians before enrolling
- First-time GLP-1 patients attracted to the $99-$133/mo introductory offer pricing and willing to confirm post-promo renewal rates
- Patients who want unlimited included clinician check-ins and weight-loss coaching with no add-on consultation fees
- Patients who want FDA-approved brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro, or Foundayo — Novi is compounded-only
- Users who want oral semaglutide tablets, sublingual drops, or non-injectable formats
- Patients who require disclosed lab requirements, named medical director, or transparent founding history before enrolling
- Anyone in Louisiana or another state Novi may not serve — verify on the intake quiz before relying on the published pricing
Novi Pros and Cons
What We Like
- +Six disclosed clinicians on staff — Daniel Funsch MD, Michael Wasef MD, Takashi Nakamura MD plus three nurse practitioners (Hastings NP, Clements NP, Vergara DNP) — more named providers than most compounded-only platforms publish
- +Month-to-month billing with no minimum commitment — cancel before any renewal date with no early-termination penalty
- +Aggressive promotional pricing on the offer landing — $99-$133/mo compounded semaglutide and $149-$166/mo compounded tirzepatide with a $200 OFF intro discount
- +Unlimited clinician check-ins, dose adjustments, and weight-loss coaching included at no additional cost
- +Free 2-day shipping; same active ingredients as Wegovy/Ozempic and Mounjaro/Zepbound (semaglutide and tirzepatide respectively)
- +100,000+ patients claimed and editorial coverage in Bloomberg, Forbes, and WebMD provide third-party signal
What Could Be Better
- −Compounded-only — no FDA-approved Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, or Mounjaro through the platform; no Foundayo or oral GLP-1 formats
- −Founding year, headquarters city, and corporate ownership are not publicly disclosed
- −Promotional $99-$133 pricing applies to the introductory offer landing only — standard rate after any qualifying intro period is $174-$283/mo (verify the renewal rate before enrolling)
- −Once medication is dispensed/shipped, prescriptions cannot be returned or refunded — typical for compounded telehealth but worth understanding
- −Lab requirements before prescribing are not disclosed on public pages — unclear whether baseline bloodwork is required
- −Multiple landing pages (offer-v4, offer-v6-low) show different headline prices, which can create pricing confusion before checkout
