Two GLP-1 Providers chasing the same patients, trading off price, geography and what lands in the box differently. On our scoring, Embody opens cheaper — $79/mo against $149, and Embody finishes ahead, 9.3 to 7.0. What follows: the prices, what each plan actually covers, the six-dimension score, where each one is weak, and who should pick which.

Embody
Checkout: '$79/mo flat forever' (strikethrough $299); bundles $76/$73/$69 per month on 3/6/12-mo. CAVEAT: T&C list price is $199/mo — the $79 depends on the auto-applied SUMMER promo marketed as permanently locked; Trustpilot complaints allege the lock was not always honored.
Checkout tile 'Flat rate at $119/month (strikethrough $349)'; homepage 'starting at $129/month'; bundles $126/$123/$119 per month.
New oral semaglutide $229/mo.

Embody
What we like
- Semaglutide at $79 a month, 58% below the $189 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Tirzepatide at $129 a month, 52% below the $267 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
- Coverage is published for all 50 states
- Names 4 dispensing pharmacies, which most sellers in this register do not do
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
- Both oral and injectable options are on record, so the format is a choice rather than a condition
Watch-outs
- Its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
NuBloom
What we like
- Semaglutide at $149 a month, within the normal band around this register's $189 median for the same drug and form
- The monthly figure covers medication
- Coverage is published for 49 states
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Watch-outs
- No price appears until the medical intake is complete, so the cost cannot be compared before health information is submitted
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
- Its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
