Knownwell vs Strut Health
The verdict
Strut Health takes it — 82/100 to 66.9/100.
Strut Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. The same molecule as a lozenge or an injection at the same price — the one place here where the needle is genuinely optional.
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.

Graded #172 · C
Strengths

- Branded FDA-approved GLP-1s (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Saxenda)
- Official LillyDirect provider and Novo Wegovy-pill telehealth partner

Where it loses points
- Specific self-pay monthly medication prices not transparently posted
- In-person clinics limited to four metro areas
- Branded-only focus can mean higher cost than compounded routes
Graded #21 · B−
Strengths
- Sublingual lozenges for both molecules at the same price as the injection — semaglutide from $99/mo, tirzepatide from $199/mo
- Every route and auto-refill saving published on the product page rather than inside an intake
- Free physician visit, free shipping and free follow-up care included
- Cancel, pause or delay yourself with 48 hours' notice
Where it loses points
- Asynchronous by design — some states need no phone consultation, so you may never speak to the prescriber
- No published lab or monitoring programme
- Compounded only, with no brand-name lane
- Not available in Arkansas
