Basal Health vs Wellorithm
The verdict
Wellorithm takes it — 48.5/100 to 47.7/100, but only just.
Wellorithm grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Four compounded routes plus four branded pens — and not one price anywhere on the public site. Basal Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

The numbers
| Metric | Basal Health | Wellorithm |
|---|---|---|
| WeighScore | 47.7/100 | 48.5/100 |
| Grade | C | C |
| Scorecard rank | #494 | #486 |
| Semaglutide | Not disclosed | Pricing not published |

Graded #494 · C
Strengths
- Stated nationwide coverage (50 states + DC)
- Metabolic-framework positioning rather than single-product
- Clinician-supervised dosing rather than a fixed protocol
- Adaptive monitoring approach
Where it loses points
- No pricing shown publicly — you must complete intake to see cost
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named
- GLP-1 molecules not specified (semaglutide vs tirzepatide vs oral)
- No LegitScript badge visible on the homepage
- No FDA compounded-medication disclaimer on the pages reviewed
Graded #486 · C
Strengths
- Both molecules in BOTH routes — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as injections and as oral dissolving tablets
- Four branded pens on the same account: Mounjaro, Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound
- Sermorelin offered alongside the GLP-1 line
- 24/7 phone support on a published number
Where it loses points
- No price appears anywhere on the public site — /pricing 404s and every product CTA leads to a 2-minute intake quiz, so no cost can be compared before signing up
- The site contradicts itself on coverage: the homepage says "Serving All 50 States" while its own FAQ says 49 states and excludes Louisiana
- The four clinicians presented as "board-certified obesity specialists" are listed as Cardiac Surgery, Pediatric Clinic, Gynecology and Cardiac Surgery — none in obesity medicine
- "100% Customer Satisfaction" is stated as a headline fact and is not a substantiable claim
Also worth a look
