Audicus was one of the first brands to program hearing aids remotely and ship them to your door. When the brand launched nearly 10 years ago, Audicus was dubbed the Warby Parker of hearing aids. They make their service simple to use and offer a range of simple but effective products.
Unlike other over-the-counter style devices like Eargo and Lexie, you do not need to program your own hearing aids. The Audicus team of hearing specialists walks you through an online test or accepts an existing audiogram. With the results in hand, they program your hearing aids before shipping. This streamlined process saves you time and cuts the cost by about 50%-70% compared to traditional options.
Audicus Wave is the second technology level and comes standard with a disposable battery but can be upgraded to rechargeable for $200 per ear. The Wave comes with most of the core features available, including automatic program switching, Bluetooth streaming to iPhone and Android devices, and feedback reduction. The Wave does not allow remote adjustments, which means that if you need something changed after your initial programming, you'll need to ship the hearing aids back to Audicus for the change.

All Audicus products are fully programmable by a hearing professional. Unlike some other over-the-counter options, you will not need to self-program your devices.
Audicus will ask you to take an online hearing test or send an existing hearing test. The company then assigns one of their remote audiologists to program your hearing aids. If you need further adjustments and have the Audicus Omni or Audicus Spirit, the audiologist will access your hearing aid remotely. If you have DIA II, Clara, or Wave, you will need to mail your hearing aids back for reprogramming.

The breakdown
What makes Audicus hearing aids different than other options on the market?
Audicus moves the whole fitting process from local shops (with lots of overhead) to one central website and remote audiologists. As a result, they can cut the price to about half of what you could expect from a local audiologist.
Audicus hearing aids are made by Sonova, which sells similar technology for $4,500 through a local care provider.
The tech inside
Audicus hearing aids come at a variety of tech levels. Audicus Wave Bluetooth streaming with both Apple and Android devices and the option to upgrade to rechargeable batteries for $100 per ear.
All Audicus products automatically adapt to your environment, have clear sound quality and are fully customizable to your hearing loss.
Audicus Spirit and Omni hearing aids can be adjusted remotely by your audiologist. Wave does not currently offer remote adjustments.
Getting up close
Audicus hearing aids sit almost invisible behind the ear and offer easy to use button controls for volume and program changes.
Audicus Wave also allows you to change the volume and program using a mobile app.
