Calibrate Health vs Pomegranate Health
The verdict
Pomegranate Health takes it — 69.4/100 to 69.3/100, but only just.
Pomegranate Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Pomegranate Health sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with no membership and no consultation fee. Calibrate Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #125 · C
Strengths
- Year-long program with 1:1 video coaching, dietitian support, and behavior-change curriculum — a deeper clinical wrap than transactional telehealth
- $199/month program fee is competitive; medication co-pay can drop to ~$25/month with insurance and a manufacturer savings card
- Branded GLP-1s only (Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Foundayo) — no compounded products
- Insurance navigation team works to maximize coverage and reportedly accepts most major commercial plans
- Money-back guarantee tied to a 10% weight-loss outcome over the program year
Where it loses points
- Medication cost is on top of the $199/month fee; cash-pay patients face full manufacturer pricing
- Insurance navigation only helps if your plan actually covers branded GLP-1s for weight loss — many don't
- Meaningfully more expensive than compounded telehealth if your insurance denies coverage
- Distinct from 'Oxford's Medical Weight Loss (The Calibrate Clinic)' — don't confuse the two
- Initial 3-month commitment required ($597 total, billed as $199/mo) before it renews month-to-month — more lock-in than month-to-month rivals
Graded #122 · C
Strengths
- No membership and no consultation fee — the site states 'No Membership required' and 'Transparent pricing, no hidden fees'
- The semaglutide price sits in the product page's own static HTML, so it can be read before any intake
- Shipping is included: 'shipped discreetly to your door at no extra cost'
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide are offered
Where it loses points
- The tirzepatide price is not on the public site at all — it exists only inside the in-app pricing portal, and there is no standalone tirzepatide product page to read it from
- Both published figures are floors, a 'Starts @' and a Starter tier, and no price is published for the dose you titrate up to
- The states it can prescribe in are not disclosed anywhere; the dataset's own note records that semaglutide was unavailable in CA, IA and WI
- Klarna, Afterpay and Affirm are offered at checkout, so any monthly figure seen in a financing widget is an instalment and not the medication price
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
