The verdict

Shapely takes it — 65.4/100 to 60.5/100.

Shapely grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Shapely is a GLP-1 telehealth platform founded by Dr.

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 #320 · C

Strengths

  • Board-certified DO and FNP providers with years of experience
  • Medication bundled with visits into a single price
  • No charge until after approval

Where it loses points

  • Requires ongoing monthly follow-up commitment
Shapely

Graded #220 · C

Strengths

  • Founded by Dr. Justin Zaghi, MD/MBA — Harvard-trained, board-certified in internal medicine and obesity medicine, with Medical Director Ana Lisa

  • Compounded semaglutide from $99/month with free 2-day shipping, syringes, and supplies included via 503A/503B pharmacy
  • 1:1 registered dietitian (RDN) and monthly video provider visits included in every plan; unlimited chat and app support
  • Cellular smart scale provided to qualifying patients for ongoing weight tracking throughout the program

Where it loses points

  • Currently available only in California, Florida, New York, and Texas — 46 states unserved despite announced expansion
  • Telehealth subscription ($99/mo self-pay, $49 first-month promo) is charged separately from compounded medication cost
  • Labs not included — $75 flat rate for uninsured patients; baseline bloodwork may be required before prescribing
  • No LegitScript certification found on any public page
  • Compounding pharmacy partner not named publicly; 503A/503B status claimed but specific pharmacy undisclosed

Also worth a look
