Graded #146 · C

Strengths

  • Industry-lowest GLP-1 pricing: compounded semaglutide from $25/vial, tirzepatide from $45/vial — no subscription or recurring commitment required
  • Real 503A telehealth Rx: licensed NP/PA prescribers + MD medical director (Dr. Jonathan Snipes, NPI 1821250077); patient-specific Rx dispensed by
  • FedEx overnight shipping at $15 flat; ships pre-reconstituted and includes syringes, alcohol wipes, and reusable cooled travel case
  • Independent batch COA testing by Eagle Analytical (FDA-registered, A2LA ISO 17025): 54/54 sterility and endotoxin passes published publicly on
  • No subscription required; $39 flat visit fee covers up to 3 peptides per Rx; pay per vial with no ongoing commitment

Where it loses points

  • No LegitScript certification; company founded 2026 — no public track record or long-term patient-outcomes data
  • Minimal clinical oversight: $39 asynchronous intake form only — no live video consult required, no labs mandated, no monitoring protocol; lowest
  • Per-vial pricing makes true monthly cost opaque; every refill costs another $39 visit fee on top of vial price and $15 shipping
  • Only 28 states + DC; excludes California, most of the Southeast (AL, AR, GA, MS, NC, SC, TN, VA), and parts of Midwest
  • No coaching, labs, dietitian support, or clinical monitoring included at any tier — purely prescription + dispensing
ShapeIn Rx

Graded #325 · C

Strengths

  • One of the few telehealth providers offering compounded liraglutide as a daily alternative to weekly injections
  • Semaglutide is compounded with B12, and the combination is stated plainly
  • Publishes a street address and a staffed phone line with hours
  • States openly that telemedicine is limited to jurisdictions where its providers are licensed, rather than claiming all 50
  • LegitScript certification verified against the issued seal, not just the badge

Where it loses points

  • Advertises Trusted by 150k Americans and Excellent 4.8 with 150k happy customers, and neither figure is attributable to a verifiable review profile
  • No state list is published, only a statement that coverage is limited and a note that partner pharmacies may operate in all 50 states
  • The struck-through $199 next to $149 on the homepage reads as a discount but the two prices are different medications
  • Claims No Hidden Fees and No Monthly Membership while the Terms state subscriptions automatically renew
  • No compounding pharmacy is named, only US-Certified Pharmacy
