Visit Zealthy →Collective and Zealthy are both GLP-1 Providers competing for the same patients, but they make different trade-offs on price, coverage, and what's included. In our scoring, Collective starts lower at $59/mo versus $286/mo, and Collective edges ahead overall (8.3 vs 5.5 out of 10). Below we break down pricing, what each plan covers, the six-dimension score, pros and cons, and exactly who should pick which.
Pricing
Collective
Verbatim: 'Compounded Semaglutide: $59/month. Same price, every dose. Cancel anytime.' ⛔ EXCLUDES the required membership — the site states 'What does it cost? $59/month + $199 annual membership.' First-year total is $907 ($75.58/mo equivalent).
Verbatim: 'Compounded Tirzepatide: $69/month. Same price, any dose.' ⛔ EXCLUDES the required membership — 'The cost is $69/month + $199 annual membership.' First-year total is $1,027 ($85.58/mo equivalent).
Verbatim: 'Requires Collective membership: 21 day free trial, then a low annual $199 membership fee. No recurring monthly membership charges.' Charged yearly, not monthly. Terms of Use: 'all membership fees are non-refundable, and partial-period refunds are not provided.'
Zealthy
$151 medication plus a $135 monthly membership. ⚠ The $151 is 'as low as … when purchased quarterly' — it is not a month-to-month rate, and the membership is charged on top either way.
$216 medication plus the same $135 monthly membership.

Read our full Zealthy review →Pros & Cons
Collective
What we like
- The lowest published compounded GLP-1 medication prices we track — $59/month semaglutide and $69/month tirzepatide
- Flat pricing at every dose, so titrating up does not raise the bill
- Unlimited clinician messaging and registered-dietitian access are included rather than upsold
- 21-day free trial on the membership before the annual fee is charged
Watch-outs
- The advertised $59 and $69 exclude a mandatory $199 annual membership — the real first-year cost is $907 and $1,027
- Membership fees are non-refundable and no partial-period refunds are given
- Compounding pharmacies are described only as 'independent, third-party licensed pharmacies' and are never named
- State availability is not published on the marketing site
Zealthy
What we like
- Serves 34 states — meaningful nationwide footprint
- Asynchronous model removes friction for patients who don't want a video visit
- Independent licensed prescribers retain full clinical authority
Watch-outs
- Two FDA warning letters for false or misleading marketing of compounded GLP-1s
- Active Novo Nordisk false-advertising lawsuit alleging trademark infringement and marketing compounded drugs as FDA-approved alternatives
- Active DOJ/FTC enforcement alleging undisclosed subscription terms, locked cancellation, and unauthorized health-data sharing
- Founder previously ran Cerebral, which settled with the FTC in 2024 over similar deceptive practices
- Recently rebranded to Gronk Inc. amid active enforcement
- Kept marketing compounded semaglutide after the FDA shortage ended in Feb 2025
- Adds a $135/month membership fee on top of medication — total cash price $286–$351/month
- Compounded only — no FDA-approved Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, or Mounjaro
