Graded #89 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript Certified

- $99/mo first-month intro pricing on semaglutide — among the most aggressive we track
- All 50 states covered, stated explicitly
- Both brand (Maves) and parent (Homera Health) disclosed for accountability
Where it loses points

- Refund and cancellation policy not detailed publicly
- Corporate address and arbitration venue not disclosed
Graded #339 · C
Strengths
- Three GLP-1 programs: standard semaglutide, dual-agonist tirzepatide, and a microdose protocol for near-goal or dose-sensitive patients
- Nutrition, movement, and lifestyle coaching included in all programs at no extra charge
- Medication compounded in licensed 503A/503B US pharmacies with temperature-controlled, unmarked direct-to-door delivery
- Licensed provider supervision with direct messaging access and structured check-ins throughout
- Telehealth across all 50 states; BMI 27+ eligibility (25+ with weight-related condition)
Where it loses points
- Pricing is fully gated — not disclosed until after consultation, preventing upfront cost comparison
- Compounded GLP-1 only — no brand-name options (Wegovy, Zepbound) available
- No LegitScript certification or named medical leadership found on public-facing pages
- Labs not mentioned as included — unclear whether baseline or follow-up bloodwork is offered
- Newer brand with no external reviews, published outcomes data, or notable accreditations
