Matthew Gallagher built Medvi, a telehealth company selling GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, using AI tools for coding, marketing, and customer service. Starting with $20,000 in two months, the company gained 1,300 customers initially. In 2025, Medvi generated $401 million in sales. Gallagher then hired his brother as the only employee. The company is now projected to reach $1.8 billion in annual revenue with minimal workforce.
