Melvi was a Brazilian health-tech marketplace for finding and booking same-day medical appointments, therapies, and exams with healthcare providers at negotiated discounts. The platform operated on a pay-per-use model, allowing patients to access services without monthly fees. It targeted the Brazilian market with a catalog of services across various specialties like psychiatry, psychology, and nutrition.
The company was founded in 2021 by Mariana Paixao, Nino Vashakidze, and Marcela Sobrinho. In September 2021, Melvi secured a Seed funding round of $9.8 million. The platform aimed to make quality healthcare more accessible by connecting patients with a network of qualified professionals for both in-person and online consultations. According to a PitchBook profile, the company is now out of business as of September 2024.
