Joi + Blokes

What Joi + Blokes does

Joi + Blokes is a U.S. telehealth and wellness platform founded in 2021 by Josh and Katy Whalen, operating as Blokes, LLC under Colorado governing law with corporate registration in Omaha, Nebraska. The company delivers personalized hormone care, diagnostics, and supplements to men and women across all 50 states via a direct-to-consumer model, with reported reach to more than 50,000 patients. Its core service combines at-home diagnostic lab testing (with panels spanning 56 to 110 biomarkers) with telehealth consultations conducted by licensed clinicians, followed by prescription therapies, compounded medications, and supplements shipped directly to patients through partner pharmacies including Strive, Pharmacy Hub, Tailor Made, and Precision Compounding, as well as Lilly Direct for FDA-approved GLP-1 medications.

The product catalog spans bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, testosterone replacement therapy, thyroid care, weight loss programs (Zepbound, compounded GLP-1, liraglutide), sexual wellness formulations, longevity peptides (NAD+, Sermorelin, rapamycin), and personalized supplement lines. The platform also operates the Beyond the Labs consultation program and is expanding into fertility services via a strategic combination with YourJOY.ai. Joi + Blokes monetizes primarily through monthly subscriptions billed quarterly ($50-$299/month), one-time diagnostic panels ($129-$699), supplement purchases, and pharmacy transaction fees, with HSA/FSA payment support via Flex integration and no insurance billing. The company maintains 51-100 employees, holds LegitScript certification, complies with HIPAA, and is licensed to treat patients in all 50 states, though testosterone prescriptions cannot ship to 15 states due to regulatory restrictions.

Recent strategic activity includes the December 2025 acquisition of HerMD (women's menopause and sexual health), the March 2026 combination with Gina Bartasi's YourJOY.ai to launch a fertility division, and channel partnerships with F45 Training (January 2026) and Spartan (October 2025). The company faces regulatory exposure following a June 2026 FDA warning letter regarding compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide claims. No institutional funding rounds have been disclosed.
