The verdict

AlyveRx takes it — 70.3/100 to 66.6/100.

AlyveRx grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. AlyveRx (Alyve, Inc.) is a US online telehealth platform connecting patients with licensed providers for GLP-1 weight loss care, no insurance required, with free discreet delivery.

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.

AlyveRx

Graded #107 · C

Strengths

  • Offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as both injections and needle-free sublingual drops for people who dislike needles
  • Transparent monthly pricing shown upfront, no insurance required, and free discreet delivery
  • Also carries brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro through its provider network

Where it loses points

  • Does not publicly name its dispensing pharmacy or display a LegitScript seal, so third-party accreditation is unverified
  • Sublingual GLP-1 absorption relies on the company proprietary PermeAct technology and is not FDA-reviewed for weight loss
  • State availability is not published on the site
Nova MD

Graded #187 · C

Strengths

  • On-page pricing published for all four SKUs (semaglutide and tirzepatide, 1- and 3-month)
  • $125/mo semaglutide and $199/mo tirzepatide 3-month plans rank among the cheapest in the market
  • $50 off first tirzepatide order shown publicly
  • Explicit microdose / low-dose program for both semaglutide and tirzepatide
  • Broader menu (sermorelin, NAD+, glutathione, enclomiphene) for longevity alongside GLP-1

Where it loses points

  • Legal entity name and state of incorporation not disclosed
  • Compounding pharmacy not named — only 'accredited facilities'
  • LegitScript certification not confirmed (only 'Licensed US Providers' claims)
  • Per-state availability not listed
  • Compounded only — no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or Ozempic
