MANÜ Telehealth
54/100Where the value is
- LegitScript verification seal displayed on the site
- Describes a genuine physician-prescribing process
- Uses a named 503A U.S. pharmacy category for dispensing
The tradeoffs
- Per-day pricing framing obscures the true monthly cost, which is never shown directly
- Inconsistent per-day figures appeared across different page instances ($4/day vs $5/day)
Pomegranate Health
54/100Where the value is
- No membership and no consultation fee — the site states 'No Membership required' and 'Transparent pricing, no hidden fees'
- The semaglutide price sits in the product page's own static HTML, so it can be read before any intake
- Shipping is included: 'shipped discreetly to your door at no extra cost'
The tradeoffs
- The tirzepatide price is not on the public site at all — it exists only inside the in-app pricing portal, and there is no standalone tirzepatide product page to read it from
- Both published figures are floors, a 'Starts @' and a Starter tier, and no price is published for the dose you titrate up to
