The comparison in brief

Both score 77/100 on the Cost-Efficiency Index. There is no score winner; compare the treatment you need, billing terms and state availability.

The better fit depends on what is included in your quote. A lower advertised price can require prepayment, apply to a starting dose or leave out a separate fee.

Coivas

Shoppers who want low published compounded prices with no membership fee and a cancel-any-time subscription.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes its prices: semaglutide from $119 and tirzepatide from $199 a month, with no membership fee
  • Names its clinical provider group, Beluga Health
  • Says it serves all 50 states, and shows a LegitScript seal

What to weigh up

  • The semaglutide price is a "from" figure shown under a fall-sale banner, so confirm what month two costs at your dose before paying
  • No single named compounding pharmacy; it varies by location and medication
  • The money-back guarantee needs six straight months of paid enrollment and no weight loss at all

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.

Knownwell

Insured shoppers who want an obesity-medicine specialist overseeing brand-name GLP-1 care, with published self-pay drug prices as a fallback.

Reasons to consider it

  • Co-founded and clinically led by Dr. Angela Fitch, a named, credentialed obesity-medicine specialist (Chief Medical Officer)
  • Prescribes branded FDA-approved GLP-1s across the current class (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Saxenda) plus orforglipron/Foundayo
  • Publishes a self-pay price for every drug and dose, from $149 a month for the Wegovy pill

What to weigh up

  • Brand-name only, and the price rises with the dose: the Wegovy pill runs $149 to $299 a month, the Wegovy pen $349, and Zepbound $299 to $449
  • Those are medication prices; without insurance, knownwell's own visits cost $299 for the first and $149 for each follow-up
  • In-person care is limited to five states (Texas has primary care in Plano only), so most of the country can only use the virtual clinic
