The world's first digital clinic for substance use management
Pelago, formerly Quit Genius, is the world’s leading virtual clinic for substance use management. We are transforming substance use support—from prevention to treatment—delivering education, management skills, and opportunities for positive change to members struggling with substance use, most commonly tobacco, alcohol, or opioids. Our solution gives employers the means to offer on-demand, personalized support to workers seeking to live healthier lives. Pelago’s cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) programs deliver convenient, accessible, and effective support that seamlessly integrates with health plans, pharmacy benefit managers, and wellness platforms. To date, Pelago has helped more than 750,000 members manage their substance use and improve their lives.
Pelago offers personalized, digital substance use care delivered through a virtual-first platform for tobacco, alcohol, opioid, cannabis, and stimulant use. It targets employers and health plans seeking to reduce costs while supporting employees through digital tools, live counseling, and medication-assisted treatment.
Pelago combines digital tools, live clinical support, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to provide same-day access nationwide. The platform features round-the-clock virtual support (including CBT and tracking), at-home monitoring devices (breathalyzers, urinary test kits), and a PelagoRX member hub for confidential MAT prescriptions with pharmacy integration. It coordinates care with Centers of Excellence and provides physician-led care teams for complex conditions, aiming to engage users early and reduce use with stigma-free, goal-oriented care.
