We're a small team of clinicians, pharmacists, and people who'd been on the other side of the prescription pad for years — and decided the version of care we wanted didn't exist yet, so we built it.
MyPromise started the way most honest companies do — with a frustration we couldn't shake. Between us we'd cycled through five telehealth platforms, three primary care clinics, and a parade of prescriptions that arrived without a single human checking in afterward. Our labs got faxed. Our messages got "received." Our questions got bots.
So we built the platform we'd been describing to each other in voice memos. One clinician per member. Lab certificates on the dashboard, not on request. Compounding pharmacies we visited in person before signing a contract. A pace measured in business days, not weeks.
The name came late. We kept saying it to each other in meetings — "what's our actual promise here?" — until we realized that was the brief. A promise you finally get to keep, because someone is keeping it with you. That's the whole company in one sentence.
These aren't slogans. They're the filters we run every product decision through before it ships.
The clinician who reads your intake is the clinician who titrates your dose six months later. We staff for relationships, not for tickets — and we measure retention of the clinician–member pair, not just visits per quarter.
Anyone can write "lab-tested" on a website. We publish the certificate of analysis from the batch your medication came from, with every shipment, on your dashboard. If we won't show you, we don't ship it.
We deliberately don't chase the cheapest, fastest thing. We turn intakes around in under a day because that's what good care looks like — not because a growth chart told us to.
We're not selling a vibe. The protocols on this platform were chosen because the evidence holds up — and because the people who use them tell us they feel like themselves again. That's the only outcome that matters.
A small founding team, deeply credentialed, deliberately unglamorous about it. The names below lead the disciplines that touch your protocol every month.

A compounding pharmacist by training and a quality-systems obsessive by temperament. James audits our 503A and 503B partners, reviews lot data, and signs off on the four assays before anything ships.
Annika built our member-care org around a single rule: a real person reads every message, in writing, within a business day. No tiered ticket queues. No bots that pretend to be people.
Our home office sits a block from the Cooper River in Charleston, South Carolina. Our clinicians, however, are licensed across the country — which means a member in Boise gets the same review window as a member in Brooklyn. We picked Charleston because the team wanted to build something that felt like a long walk, not a sprint. The rest is just zoning.
Take the twelve-minute eligibility review. A licensed clinician will read your intake, recommend a protocol — or tell you honestly that we're not the right fit. Either way, you'll know within a day.
