Found
What we like
- Aggressively low monthly pricing
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide available
- Compounded GLP-1 access
Watch-outs
- Limited public information on program details
Lighter You
What we like
- Carries a genuine LegitScript seal (ID 51449551) served from LegitScript's own asset host, not a self-hosted badge image.
- Membership bundles dietician visits and care coaching, which most compounded GLP-1 brands charge separately for or omit.
- Full refund if a medical provider disqualifies you, and cancellation is allowed at any time for any reason.
- Includes a patient dashboard tracking weight trends, adherence, guided workouts and GLP-1-friendly recipes.
Watch-outs
- Only "starting at" prices are published; no per-medication or per-dose price appears anywhere on the public site.
- States plainly it is "not available in all 50 states" but publishes no list, so you cannot check coverage before intake.
- You are charged for the first month as soon as the intake form is completed, before a clinician has decided anything.
- The partner pharmacy is never named, and cancellation needs 72 hours' notice or you are billed for another cycle.
Our Verdict
Found edges out Lighter You with a higher overall score of 8.3/10 and is particularly strong for mainstream telehealth GLP-1 access. Lighter You remains a solid alternative, especially if you're looking for bundled dietician visits and coaching alongside a GLP-1 prescription.
