Graded #53 · C
Strengths
- Compounded semaglutide from $83/mo and tirzepatide from $97/mo, billed as one all-in monthly price
- Brand Wegovy, Zepbound, and Foundayo (oral GLP-1) available on the same platform
- US-licensed provider reviews requests within 24 hours — no video visit required
- You aren't charged until a provider approves; checkout places an authorization hold only
- LegitScript-certified; works exclusively with state-licensed US 503A compounding pharmacies
Where it loses points
- Both figures are 'as low as' rates and the qualifying term is not published anywhere — the checkout is gated, so whether $97 is month-to-month or a multi-month prepay cannot be established before signing up
- Brand-name routes are priced separately and do carry a fee: $49/mo membership plus medication from $149/mo for Foundayo and Wegovy, from $299/mo for Zepbound
- No state count is published, and a state-variant waitlist implies some states are unserved
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
Graded #64 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript certified — passes accreditation standards recognized by Google and Visa for online telehealth
- Compounded all-in pricing: semaglutide $199/mo and tirzepatide $299/mo includes medication, provider care, and shipping
- Brand-name options (Wegovy pill, injectable sema, Zepbound) available for eligible patients, potentially $0-$25/mo with insurance
- Nationwide (49 states + DC); no appointment required, licensed provider reviews intake within 12 hours
- 0% financing through Credee from $79/month (12-24 months) plus Affirm and Klarna with ~97% approval rate
Where it loses points
- No labs or clinical monitoring disclosed — blood work requirements not mentioned anywhere on site
- Leadership team and medical director not identified on site — no named prescribers or company founders published
- Brand-name prescriptions add a $44/month provider fee on top of medication cost, raising total price to $193-$343/mo
- No coaching, dietitian, or behavioral support at any tier — medication and async provider access only
- 30-day satisfaction guarantee covers evaluation fee only; medication costs explicitly non-refundable
