Graded #201 · C
Strengths
- Compounded GLP-1 starting around $95/mo (12-month plan paid upfront)
- Free shipping and clinical evaluation included
- Membership fee refunded in full if you're not approved
- Also offers peptide therapy such as sermorelin
- 100% online with licensed providers — no clinic visit
Where it loses points
- Billing runs on a 28-day cycle rather than a calendar month — thirteen charges a year, so the $145 tirzepatide rate is $1,885 a year, an effective $157/mo
- The terms call the charge a 'membership fee' while the marketing carousel says 'No Membership Fees Ever'
- Prices are rendered entirely in JavaScript; the page's HTML body is empty, so nothing is readable without running the bundle
- Shipped compounded medication is non-refundable
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
Graded #358 · C
Strengths
- Prescribes FDA-approved branded GLP-1s including Wegovy and Zepbound
- Covered through insurance and employer benefits for 50M-plus people
- Board-certified physicians averaging about 15 years of experience
- Part of Evernorth/Cigna, a large established healthcare organization
- Offers full primary care, not just a single weight-loss funnel
Where it loses points
- GLP-1s only at clinician discretion in a Primary Care routine visit
- Anti-obesity meds not available in FL, LA, MS or NJ
- Distributed mainly via insurers and employers; cost varies by plan
- No transparent published monthly cash price for GLP-1 care
