Live Vital and Found 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, Live Vital starts lower at $130/mo versus $169/mo, and Found edges ahead overall (8.3 vs 7.7 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
Live Vital
Sold as a 10-week protocol at $299 total, which works out to about $130 a calendar month — not the '3 month program' the page's own framing suggests.
'$183/mo — 10-week protocol ($549 total)'. Ten weeks is 2.3 calendar months, so the real monthly cost is about $239.
Found
$169/mo cash-pay on 12-month prepaid plan, medication+membership+coaching included; promo_price 99 = $99/mo WITH insurance (12-mo prepaid). Month-to-month: $199/mo insurance, $289/mo cash. Site-wide '$100 off today' checkout promo running.
Same single Compounded GLP-1 Plan price as semaglutide — no per-drug split published (final drug/price assignment is quiz-gated); $169/mo cash 12-mo prepaid ($289/mo month-to-month cash), $99/mo insurance prepaid.
'Starting cash price ~$149/mo' on /medication/foundayo comparison table; NEW offering since last verification.
Homepage carousel 'Wegovy® from $650/mo+'; but /medication/foundayo table lists 'Wegovy® Pen ... Starting cash price ~$199/mo' — internally inconsistent on their own site.
Homepage carousel 'Zepbound® from $650/mo+'; /medication/foundayo table shows Zepbound ~$299/mo starting cash price.
Homepage carousel 'Ozempic® $1100/mo' — unchanged from prior verification.
Homepage carousel 'Mounjaro® ~$1100/mo' — unchanged. Non-GLP-1 generics plan from $49/mo; microdosing program price not published.

Live Vital
What we like

Watch-outs
- Sold as 3-month programs (semaglutide $299 / tirzepatide $549 per quarter); 'starting at' rates can rise with dose
- Doesn't accept insurance (HSA/FSA funds only)
- Compounding pharmacy isn't named (only 'a licensed US pharmacy')
- Also a peptide/longevity practice; those peptides are not FDA-approved (the site discloses this)
Found

- Compounded GLP-1 access
Watch-outs
- Limited public information on program details
