Found vs TeleFirst Med
The verdict
Found takes it — 83.5/100 to 57.4/100.
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 #400 · C
Strengths
- Prescribes real brand-name GLP-1 (e.g. Ozempic/Wegovy), not compounded — appealing if you specifically want FDA-approved branded medication
- Simple $120 telehealth evaluation with a licensed doctor; no insurance hassle and no prior authorization
- You fill the prescription at your own regular pharmacy rather than waiting on a mail-order compounding pharmacy
- Also a general telehealth clinic (urgent care, chronic-condition management) if you want broader care
Where it loses points
- Only Texas and North Carolina are confirmed — not available nationwide
- The $120 is an evaluation fee; the brand-name medication is billed separately at your pharmacy and can be expensive without insurance
- Small practice (about 500 patients) with limited public detail on its clinicians and program
- No compounded or lower-cost medication option, and no medication pricing is published
Also worth a look
Neither is our top-graded pick — CoreAge Rx leads the scorecard
Across all 499 providers, CoreAge Rx grades highest at 91.8/100 (A−). Top of the scorecard: flat transparent pricing, both molecules, nationwide — no teaser-rate games.
