The verdict

Vaylen takes it — 77.9/100 to 69.4/100.

Vaylen grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Vaylen is a pure GLP-1 specialist offering compounded semaglutide ($179/mo), compounded tirzepatide ($239/mo), compounded oral GLP-1 ($259/mo), and brand-name Ozempic, Zepbound, and Wegovy.

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.

Cielo

Graded #121 · C

Strengths

  • Among the lowest 3-month bundle prices in compounded GLP-1 ($115/mo semaglutide)
  • Single flat price across all doses simplifies titration planning
  • Corporate address (St. Petersburg, FL) and customer-service phone published

Where it loses points

  • No LegitScript, NABP .pharmacy, or HIPAA badge on the home page
  • Pharmacy partner not named (only 'regulated FDA pharmacy partners')
  • State coverage list not published — can't verify all-50-state availability
  • Clinical care runs through MD Integrations, a shared third-party network used by many brands
  • No brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound option
Vaylen

Graded #44 · C+

Strengths

  • Pure GLP-1 specialist — not a multi-category telehealth platform
  • All 50 states coverage with licensed clinicians
  • Both compounded and brand-name options (Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound)
  • Oral GLP-1 option (compounded dissolvable tablets) for needle-averse patients
  • LegitScript certified

Where it loses points

  • Compounded semaglutide at $179/mo is mid-range (not the cheapest)
  • Brand-name options at near-retail pricing ($997-$1,086/mo)
