The Index scorecard
Arc-1 scored on our six Cost-Efficiency Index factors. See the methodology.
Where the value is
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide offered, with LegitScript Certified badge displayed and linked for verification
- Free 1-3 day shipping and a free consultation stated as included, with no separate visit-fee line item found
- Named founder physician (Dr. Todd Stearns) rather than an anonymous entity
- Broader longevity formulary alongside GLP-1s (product catalog includes other peptides)
The tradeoffs
- The homepage price ($199.99/mo for both drugs) and each drug's own product page (tirzepatide shows $149/mo) do not agree — the number you see depends on which page you land on
- Every dose variant on both product pages was shown as sold out/unavailable during this review, so the advertised price cannot currently be tied to a specific mg dose
- No compounding pharmacy is named anywhere on the site
- No states-served list is published — coverage is entirely unknown until checkout
- No lab testing or Certificate of Analysis disclosures found
The bottom line
Best for: Shoppers comparing headline GLP-1 starting prices who will click into the specific product page rather than trust the homepage figure. Arc-1 is a compounded-GLP-1 telehealth seller (founder Dr. Todd Stearns, board-certified physician) offering both semaglutide and tirzepatide with free shipping and a free consultation, LegitScript Certified.
