The verdict

Cora Health takes it — 72.5/100 to 57.5/100.

Cora Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Cora Health is a direct-to-consumer telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide ($99–$175/mo) and tirzepatide ($135–$225/mo) with flat per-tier pricing — no surcharge as your dose escalates.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.
