The Index scorecard
Shapely scored on our six Cost-Efficiency Index factors. See the methodology.
Where the value is
- Founded by Dr. Justin Zaghi, MD/MBA — Harvard-trained, board-certified in internal medicine and obesity medicine, with Medical Director Ana Lisa
- Brand-name GLP-1s (Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro, Foundayo) covered by major PPO and Medicare at copay
- Compounded semaglutide from $99/month with free 2-day shipping, syringes, and supplies included via 503A/503B pharmacy
- 1:1 registered dietitian (RDN) and monthly video provider visits included in every plan; unlimited chat and app support
- Cellular smart scale provided to qualifying patients for ongoing weight tracking throughout the program
The tradeoffs
- Currently available only in California, Florida, New York, and Texas — 46 states unserved despite announced expansion
- Telehealth subscription ($99/mo self-pay, $49 first-month promo) is charged separately from compounded medication cost
- Labs not included — $75 flat rate for uninsured patients; baseline bloodwork may be required before prescribing
- No LegitScript certification found on any public page
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named publicly; 503A/503B status claimed but specific pharmacy undisclosed
The bottom line
Best for: Cost-first shoppers who want insurance-accepted telehealth with compounded sema $99/mo and tirz $166/mo; CA, FL, NY, TX (expanding). Shapely is a GLP-1 telehealth platform founded by Dr.
