Head-to-head · Cost-Efficiency Index
Found vs FORM
Two GLP-1 programs on the bench, scored on the same six factors. Here's how their real cost of ownership compares — and which one we'd start with.
Found
Insured shoppers willing to prepay 12 months upfront to reach the lowest advertised rate, who also want behavior-change coaching bundled in.
Visit FoundFORM
Shoppers who want compounded GLP-1, a branded option, and adjacent longevity or hair-loss products in one place, and will confirm the branded drug's real cost before enrolling.
Visit FORMThe verdict
Found takes it, leading the Cost-Efficiency Index 88 to 60. A real insurance-billing pathway on both molecules — but the widely-quoted $99/mo headline requires an insurance plan AND a full year prepaid upfront; the true no-commitment rate is $199-289/mo. FORM still earns a C — Shoppers who want compounded GLP-1, a branded option, and adjacent longevity or hair-loss products in one place, and will confirm the branded drug's real cost before enrolling.
Worth knowing either way: our overall #1 pick is CoreAge Rx (Cost-Efficiency Index 94/100 — the top of the board). See how it stacks up: CoreAge Rx vs Found.

Found
88/100Where the value is
- Genuine insurance-billing pathway, unlike most cash-only compounded competitors — most members reportedly pay under $30/visit
- Nationwide
- Strong behavior-change program adds value
The tradeoffs
- The advertised '$99/mo' headline requires BOTH an insurance-linked plan AND a 12-month prepay at once — the real month-to-month rate is $199/mo (insured) or $289/mo (cash-pay), 2-3x the headline
- Coaching subscription can't be unbundled, which reduces contract flexibility
FORM
60/100Where the value is
- Both compounded AND branded (Wegovy/Zepbound) pathways on one account, plus NAD+, sermorelin, glutathione and a hair-loss line
- LegitScript and HIPAA-compliance badges both displayed
- Specific, named state exclusions (Alaska, Mississippi) rather than a vague coverage claim
The tradeoffs
- The advertised '$95/mo' Wegovy price is a MEMBERSHIP FEE ONLY — the drug itself is billed separately and its cost is not disclosed anywhere on the site
- No tirzepatide, Zepbound, NAD+, sermorelin, or hair-loss pricing published anywhere reachable
