Found vs Lumen Meds
The verdict
Found takes it — 83.5/100 to 64.4/100.
Found grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. The broadest medication bench on the board — compounded, brand-name and oral orforglipron — priced off a membership rather than a sticker.

Graded #14 · B
Strengths
- Widest medication list on this board — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, brand Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro, Saxenda and Victoza, plus oral Foundayo (orforglipron) and Rybelsus
- Flat pricing as the dose increases, so a titration does not raise the monthly cost
- Bills insurance for the clinical visits — the site states most members pay under $30 per visit
- Runs a dedicated GLP-1 microdose programme for people who want a lower starting dose
Where it loses points
- The $99/mo headline is a longer-plan floor — Found's own FAQ says 3, 6 and 12-month plans are what keep the monthly cost down, so month-to-month costs meaningfully more
- Medication cost is separate from the membership and clinical care, so no advertised figure is the all-in number
- The homepage insurance selector lists roughly 41 states, not 50 — coverage is narrower than the service footprint
- Compounded medication is not FDA-approved the way brand Wegovy or Zepbound are
Graded #244 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript Certified
- Free expedited cold shipping — important for GLP-1 cold-chain integrity
- Lifestyle coaching included, not just medication dispensing
- Orders labs when needed
- Named legal entity (Lumen Meds LLC, Delaware) with a physical address
Where it loses points
- $0 first-month promo — verify recurring billing and cancellation terms before committing
- Standard ongoing semaglutide price not shown (only the first-month promo)
- Per-state availability not listed
- Pharmacy partners not named
- Health quiz required before you see final per-patient pricing
