Pros

Cons
- Not a GLP-1 specialist: patients seeking structured weight loss programs, dedicated titration coaching, or compounded semaglutide should look at specialist platforms
- Pricing is opaque for cash-pay patients; strongly optimized for the insured population
- Individual access (without employer benefits) is less seamless than using it through your employer plan
- No weight loss program structure comparable to Found, Calibrate, or Sequence
