The verdict

Harbor takes it — 72/100 to 64.8/100.

Harbor grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Harbor is a physician-led telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide (from $99/mo) and compounded tirzepatide (from $149/mo) — among the lowest headline prices in the market.

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.
