Pros

  • Publishes cash prices for brand-name drugs openly, which almost no competitor does: Ozempic $1,100/mo, Mounjaro around $1,100/mo, and Wegovy and Zepbound from $650/mo
  • Accepts insurance, with clinical visits covered for many members - the site says most pay under $30 per visit - and offers insurance navigation support for branded prescriptions
  • Compounded GLP-1s start at $99/month with flat pricing as your dose increases, so titrating up does not raise the bill
  • Non-GLP-1 plan options from $49/month for people who do not need or cannot take a GLP-1
  • The widest medication range of any provider on this site: compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, Ozempic, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Wegovy, Foundayo, Saxenda, metformin and more
  • Offer terms are spelled out concretely - 'Save $100/mo or more... when you choose a prepaid annual plan, compared to paying monthly' - rather than a bare percentage
  • A microdosing programme is offered as a lower-intensity entry point
  • Efficacy figures are attributed to the branded products they come from: 'Up to 15-20% weight loss with Wegovy and Zepbound'

Cons

  • On the branded route the medication cost is separate from your Found membership, so the advertised membership discounts do not touch the $650-$1,100 monthly drug bill unless insurance covers it
  • The best compounded rates require a prepaid annual plan; paying monthly costs about $100/month more by Found's own arithmetic
  • Trustpilot sits at 3.9 from 718 reviews, weaker than several smaller competitors reviewed here
  • Insurance acceptance is state-by-state, so coverage depends on where you live and which plan you hold - the free insurance check happens before you can know your real cost
  • Cash prices for branded GLP-1s are well above the manufacturers' own direct programmes, so the direct-pay route here is not the cheapest way to obtain them
  • The compounded products are not FDA-approved, and the 15-20% figures quoted come from trials of the branded drugs rather than Found's compounded versions
  • No published customer phone number or support hours
  • No BBB profile or complaint record to check

Pros

  • Accepts insurance, which almost nothing else on this site does. Most in-network patients pay a copay of $30 or less for a visit
  • Membership is $19.99/month with the first month free, and there is no minimum commitment
  • Prescribes only FDA-approved medications - Zepbound, Wegovy, Saxenda, Contrave and Xenical - so no compounded product is involved
  • Care comes from board-certified primary care physicians rather than an asynchronous questionnaire review
  • A full refund is offered if the doctor is unable to treat you
  • Membership includes far more than weight care: 24/7 urgent care video visits, mental health support, discounted lab tests and free memberships for family
  • An in-app prescription discount card and HSA/FSA eligibility can reduce medication costs further
  • The site is candid that GLP-1s 'usually cost about $1000 per month out of pocket' and advises checking insurance coverage first, rather than hiding the real figure

Cons

  • The $19.99 membership buys access, not medication. Without insurance coverage the GLP-1 itself can run about $1,000 a month, which PlushCare states openly but which makes the headline price misleading if read as a treatment cost
  • Visits are charged on top of membership - $129 for an initial visit without in-network insurance
  • Trustpilot sits at 3.4 out of 5 across 2,735 reviews, the weakest score of any established provider we have reviewed here
  • Prescriptions are explicitly at the doctor's discretion, so paying for membership and a visit does not guarantee you leave with a GLP-1
  • This is a general telehealth service, so the weight-loss programme has less dedicated structure - no built-in coaching, food tracking or dose-titration support
  • Medication and lab costs are excluded from every advertised price, so your real monthly outlay depends entirely on your insurer
  • Contrave is offered as a $99 cash-pay alternative, but the cash cost of the GLP-1s themselves is not published
  • If you have no insurance and want a GLP-1, this route is likely to cost far more than the compounded providers listed elsewhere on this site
