EverSlim
76/100Where the value is
- Transparent flat pricing from 127 dollars a month for compounded semaglutide; medication, provider visit, and shipping included with no insurance.
- Names its pharmacy partners (EPIQ Scripts, Foothills, Emerald) and DrTelx medical group; LegitScript-approved and NABP-accredited.
- Available in all 50 states and DC, with asynchronous care in 44 states and live-visit access in the rest.
The tradeoffs
- No price tiers are published anywhere: /pricing is a 404, the footer pricing link is a same-page anchor, and the checkout is behind a login, so what a titrated dose costs is unknowable before signing up
- Cancellation requires at least 72 hours' notice before the next billing date, or the subscription renews for another cycle
Rylo Health
75/100Where the value is
- Stated flat pricing regardless of dose — 'No surprise charges, no tiered pricing' — a genuine differentiator versus tiered competitors
- Medication, provider review, and shipping all stated as included in the quoted price with no add-ons found
- Names its physician group (Lone Star Virtual Health PLLC) and dispensing pharmacy (VialsRX, Houston TX) rather than leaving both anonymous
The tradeoffs
- The '$100/$160 First 20 rate' shown prominently on the homepage is limited to the first 20 signups only — most shoppers will pay the higher $149/$249 standard rate, and the promo framing can make the real price look lower than it is
- The advertised 'quarterly $349/$499' option's actual billing mechanics (one-time total vs. recurring monthly-under-commitment) could not be verified — the product pages that would clarify this render via JavaScript and returned no readable pricing text
