The verdict

Curve takes it — 61.7/100 to 60.2/100, but only just.

Curve grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Curve (Try Curve LLC) is a telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, prescribed by Beluga Health providers licensed in all 50 states and dispensed by VialsRx, a US 503A… Defy Medical is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

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.

Curve

Graded #289 · C

Strengths

  • Offers both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, with every dose priced the same so cost does not rise as you titrate up.
  • LegitScript-certified (seal #51079066) and names both its 503A compounding pharmacy, VialsRx, and its provider network, Beluga Health.
  • Transparent tiered pricing with a real month-to-month option; consultation, medication, and free expedited shipping included, no membership.
  • Available in all 50 states with same-day provider review; no insurance needed and HSA/FSA accepted.

Where it loses points

  • Very new (2026 launch) with a thin track record; the site still shows a Webflow template credit and a leftover Cora reference in its Terms.
  • The cheapest headline rates ($99 semaglutide / $135 tirzepatide) require a 12-month prepay; true month-to-month is $175 and $225.
  • Both product pages currently display an out-of-stock status, so availability may be inconsistent.
  • Compounded medications are not FDA-approved or therapeutically equivalent to Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound.
Defy Medical

Graded #326 · C

Strengths

  • Multiple GLP-1 options: semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide
  • Offers injection, ODT, and oral drop delivery forms
  • Comprehensive blood testing and named medical director
  • Established clinic with strong Trustpilot review volume

Where it loses points

  • GLP-1 pricing not published on the website
  • States served and shipping limits not disclosed
  • Compounded versus brand status not stated online
  • Lab-heavy, consult-first model may cost more upfront
