The verdict

Maven Clinic takes it — 58/100 to 56.8/100, but only just.

Maven Clinic grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Maven Clinic is a virtual women's and family health platform (fertility, maternity, menopause, pediatrics) used by 2,300+ employers that also runs a dedicated GLP-1 Care program. Ark Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

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.

Ark Health

Graded #406 · C

Strengths

  • Compounded oral semaglutide at $125/mo is competitive for a niche most providers don't offer
  • Free expedited shipping included
  • Phone support published (uncommon among DTC platforms)

Where it loses points

  • States served not listed — can't confirm coverage in your state without contacting support
  • LegitScript status not disclosed — no badge or verifiable ID
